Good Game, Depends on the Gamer

Some people will love this game; some people will hate. I really like it. I received this game as gift. I had read some bad reviews and wasn't expecting very much from this game. I had played SSX in the past, so the controlls were familiar. First I just played some quick games with my friends. It was pretty fun. But when I started to do the competitions, I begin to love this game.

The trick system is almost the same as SSX. Doing tricks isn't too hard. Grinding is very easy, unlike SSX (which I liked). I am pretty sure that there are more tricks in this game than SSX. There is a good selection of snowboarders to choose from (pros and amateurs). Controlls are a little bit tighter then SSX (on the analog).

The part where SSX comes ahead is its graphics. In Cool Boarders 2001 the edges of the surrounding is too jagged. There are some glitches (you can get stuck in the snow). The character design is very good, though. Overall, SSX has better graphics.

If you are a young child (around 6-8) SSX is a better game for you. In this game, some people might get frustrated. Otherwise, this is a better snowboarding game with more options. Not some easy arcade snowboarding game. At least give this game a try and rent it.

I was a huge fan of the Coolboarders series on the original Playstation so i was glad when this agme was released. Apart from the amazing new graphics this game has loads more new options. There are 7 different modes which will keep you playing and playing until the early hours of the morning. As with most of the great sports games you have to obtain a licence, well thsi now applies in this game. The amount of work you have to put into this game makes it worth the money as you will still be playing this games months after you have purchased it

This game is a big compatition.

I have played Cool boarders 2001 for such a long time. I shall never sell this game. I think this should be rated five stars because it is very challenging and fun. It is also very interesting in how you not only control the riders, but how careful you are when you are going atleast 100 MPH. This game should never be forgoten by anyone in this whole world.

Best Snowboarding Game on PS2

This game is fun, for a while, and the tricks are all limited...nothing like SSX. If ur a TRUE boarder or even a fan of these games, save ur money 4 SSX.

It is challenging but mot so hard that it is impossible to beat. I am addicted to the game. Once I start I have a hard time stoping. In all you should buy this game, YOU'LL LOVE IT!!!!!

This is a game you won't even look at after you play SSX!

This is a game that I just don't like. The controls aren't even close to as smooth as SSX's and what's this nonsense about this game having more tricks than SSX? That's crazy talk! In this game you have to get huge air just to pull a misty! In SSX, however you can pull a quadruple misty with three grabs off the same amout of air. I believe that i have said enough to convince anyone to save their money and not buy this game.

BUY THIS, BUY IT NOW!!!

This game contains a number of charecters to choose from, even locked ones to unlock, very sweet sceneriores, nicely executed trixs and sound effects to give you the feal of truley slopping.
I couldn't be anymore pleased with the graphics of the people, there like I.A. in a console with additude. I enjoyed it, my friends annoyed me to play it, and my family couldn't pry my cold dead fingers away from the controls playing it. does life get any better then Snowboarding in CoolBoarders 2001, perhaps, nann!!!
