ESPN X-Games Pro Boarder, also known as X Games Pro Boarder, is a video game developed by Radical Entertainment and published by Electronic Arts and Sony Computer Entertainment Europe for the PlayStation and Windows in 1998.
The game received average reviews on both platforms according to the review aggregation website GameRankings. GameSpot gave the PlayStation version a favorable review, over a month before its U.S. release date. However, Next Generation said of the same console version, "In the end, its style-over-substance, mediocre gameplay is what you'll remember the most." In Japan, where the same console version was ported and published by Electronic Arts Square, also under the name, on March 11, 1999, Famitsu gave it a score of 28 out of 40. GamePro said that the PlayStation version "enters the PlayStation snowboarding foray to carve a piece out of Cool Boarders mountain. But X Games Pro Boarder doesn't have the kick to knock CB off the slopes."[1]
