EA has released a new trailer for SSX, showing off some of the most insane action we've seen yet, and some camera angles that get us more excited than camera angles in videogames often do. Seriously. They also finally date the game for 2012, promising that it will land the jump on February 14 – right in time to give the one you love a copy for Valentines day....
At a press event last night, EA showed a fun new trailer for SSX filled
with all of the explosive, high-flying trick-based action we expect from
the series. Before it began, SSX's creative director Todd
Batty said teased that it featured a familiar song that might make fans
of the
series happy. He was right. The trailer was set to a remix of Run DMC's
"It's
Tricky," a track that served as sort of the theme song for the SSX
Tricky soundtrack. After the trailer was over we tracked down Batty to
confirm that the remix would be featured on the new games' soundtrack
(it is), and were told about some interesting new technology that EA is
working on. It's called "Harmony," and it can remix songs on the fly. Best of all, it works with custom soundtracks, too...

EA's upcoming SSX reboot (courtesy of NeoGAF), in which the designers appear to have been
so busy making the characters and background look extra-nice that

Or, more likely it's just a loooong way down - and assuming this game build incorporates EA's new Harmony music system,
getting altitude like this will make your music sound pretty freakin'
mental...
