Steep Slope Sliders in the best snowboarding game on any 32 bit system in my book. There are so many things that make this game an instant classic. At first you're presented with a choice of four boarders and seven different courses. Now if that wasn't enough, there are an additional four characters to unlock as well as more courses including a meteor shower !! The controls for SSS are also very easy to get to grips with. The two shoulder buttons are used to turn the board as well as tricks while the A, B and C buttons are used for jumping, grabbing the board and twists. All of the courses in SSS are well designed with many items to aid you in performing many cool tricks as well as getting in your way, so you must use your skill well. SSS is also one of the few Saturn games that make good use of the Saturn's built in clock. Since all the courses in SSS are situated around the world they all have different time zones. So if you play a European course in the day then an American course is going to be at night and so on. This feature can be switched off but I like to keep it on since it adds that little extra to each course. Not to mention it's nice to see the courses in different lighting.

Now you many have seen this game in the arcades way back in 1997 and the reason for this is because Cave, who are normally associated with shooters made this fantastic snowboarding game for Sega's STV arcade board which the Saturn is based upon.  Strange that Cave didn't have their name on this Saturn version even though they did program it.
