yay on days off, and we TOTALLY have played the crap out of SSX3, to the extent that both me & Mike are like kind of bored now.
Honestly I liked Tricky better, but that's mostly because I'm flat-out godawful at video games and there were a bunch of things I could do in Tricky and still feel like I was accomplishing something, notably the Trick Books (I was the one that got all the uberboards for all the characters :)
I like Moby's new dreads tho. Oh! And! Mighty helpful:

They have the best SSX3 forums around with lots of tips etc. I'll dig up the URL for the giant SSX3 FAQ if you want it.
