Excessive

I've been playing SSX a lot.

SSX is a series of games where you do over the top tricks on a snowboard as you go down semi-realistic mountains and try to set times and high scores, while upgrading and improving your character (or set of characters). The first SSX I played was SSX Tricky for the original xbox and I was impressed... I found it addictive and enjoyable, not the greatest game ever but it was fun. I liked it enough to buy SSX 3 a little while afterward, and it was amazing. SSX 3 was one of the greatest games on the xbox and of it's generation, and I played the crap out of it, so much so that I mastered and unlocked everything.. the soundtrack was amazing, and everything about it was awesome. Afterward, a new entry came out in the series, SSX On Tour... they went a tiny bit of a different direction, and focused more on individual events and creating your own character, but they hit the nail on the head again and I became equally obsessed with the game. I played the shit out of it, completely beating all aspects of it.
