Amazon.com Product Description

Jonny won the gold medal in the 1998 Winter Olympics in the freestyle mogul event. He revolutionized skiing by bringing a nontraditional, "extreme" style to the event, and became world famous for his "360 mute grab." This game, based on his exploits, lets you show off your new-school skiing tricks in Slopestyle mode and unlock Big Mountain mode to star in a ski movie! Then get heli-dropped onto a mountaintop and pull insane grabs off snowcapped cottages, trains, and more. Even use the Alaskan pipeline as a half-pipe. Afterward, kick it with your friends and watch your best runs on the big screen!

4.0 out of 5 stars JMMT is not so bad..., January 7, 2002

First off, if you compare this extreme skiing game to SSX (or SSX Tricky), JMMT doesn't come close. But, since this is the only skiing game out there right now for PS2, it's definitely worth a look.

The jump, grind, and trick schemes is almost exactly like SSX, so if you're familiar with that scheme, you'll pick up Mad Trix in no time. Some of the tricks are not so realistic (especially being able to do mistys and rodeos without a jump) and not as fluid as those in SSX.

The courses are based on snowy versions of real-life venues (San Francisco, Las Vegas, Rome, Washington DC...) and I thought they were pretty well designed. Lots of jumps, rails, and boosters to be found.

There is also a ski school & freeride to get you acclimated to the courses. Sound is OK, with the good music balanced by the announcer who sounds like Lurch from the Addams Family. Luckily, you can turn him off.

All in all, even though it's not up to SSX standards, the main reason why I like Jonny Moseley's Mad Trix is that I picked this game up much quicker than SSX, and my scores on JMMT were higher more quickly. I think it's because the racing is a bit slower than on SSX, so I had just a split-second more time to think about (and pull off) my next trick. If you like racing games with trick elements, definitely try this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars JMMT a SUCCESS, January 8, 2002

Finally a game for skiers! This game is extremely fun to play, and you will find yourself loosing hours playing it. The only bad thing about it are the game controls can be awkward since you can only steer your player with the left analog button, and you control the players jumps {rotations, flips, ect.} with the d-pad. Also, some may not like that it's only a one-player game. Lastly, it's a great introduction to the new world of skiing {freeskiing}. Ultimately it is SSX {show-off} on sticks.
