Hey, I thought I'd be brave and post another topic ^_^
What do you think EA will do with the soundtrack?
I hope they do the same as Excite Truck which allows the player to listen to their own MP3 files in the game with an SD card. (I'm not entirely sure what that is, but it seems like some sorta memory card). If Blur got it we could get the tracks from the original SSX and put them in, that would be sweet
Activision didn't use it in Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam and it doesn't seem like EA used it in Madden 07 or Need for Speed Carbon. But those were launch titles I think, so hopefully we could get customizable soundtracks in later games.
I wonder what kind of soundtrack EA will use for Blur.. It sounds like the same old stuff in the trailer, which I consider a good thing. I don't like the rock in On Tour.

I also hope they bring back the original voices, though I didn't mind them not bringing Lucy Liu back in 3. If Psymon and Nate are in Blur chances are they will be voiced by Michael Dobson (Nate) and Alistair Abell (Psymon) I think.

I don't care much about soundtrack(you can always mute it) but if the original characters are coming back, they need their original voices from either 3 or earlier.

The soundtrack was always good, so I don't care about that.

The voices should be the same as in 3!

Well, from what I've heard, it looks like the old good SSX drum n bass music is back on the track.

The characters voices... I don't care. Whatever they do it'll turn out to be bad.. IF NOT they use the Tricky voice actors.

I dont care about the music, you can always turn it off and play your own. The SanDisk idea might be good (SD memory card usually found in digital cameras - also look like DS game cards) but I only care about the characters voices which should be from tricky or ssx3 or else it will lose some of its in game character .

Another option would be to include everything from the previous games and let you pick and choose, or purchase as you earn money for winning .

The SanDisk idea would be tight, especially since I have most of the Tricky/SSX3 songs (uncut) on mp3 format now, so I can hear them, instead of the songs it'll have, although their songs might be good.

As for voices, just four little words:







Bring back Jim Rose.

I even wanna be me! -- Zoe "Royal" Payne, SSX3

sorry to say it but i dont see the SD thing workin in ssx...itd be well cool to be able to play your own choice of music yeah, but i was thinkin...what about when you go off big jumps and the music does that fade-out thingy? i love how it does that...it makes the jump seem even bigger and itd be a real shame if it went cause if you played your own music it wouldnt work.........or could it work? does anyone know how they do that? is it like an equaliser thing that shifts whenever you go above a certain height or is it prerecorded for whenever you go above a certain height? if its the equaliser thing i suppose it could work but if all the music tracks need an extra prerecorded bit for them then obviously it wouldnt work

I don't see SD workin out either. I do they have a soundtrack like they did in SSX3 and SSXOT. an awesome mix of Rock, electronica, and good hip-hop.

How bout EA being lazy and recyle the character voices from previous SSX's.

^I would be perfectly fine with that as long as they don't use the voices from OT. Recycled voices would be a disappointment but still much better than original material with OT voices.

I HATE the fact that you have to keep your groove meter, or whatever they call it now, filled to the max in order to hear the completed music and not just parts of it. It's fine for competitions but I hope they don't have that in freeride mode where I'm usually just cruising around and rarely fill up my boost.

I would love heaps of cheat characters with their old voices =)
Hopefully there'll be a cheat for full.. groove?
