But strangely enough, Ski or Die does have some old Epyx blood in it: Michael Kosaka was involved in the making of Summer Games II and World Games before co-designing Ski or Die.įor some reason, Ski or Die was never as highly praised as Skate or Die, and this showed in many magazine reviews of the time, averaging well below 70%. Ski or Die from Electronic Arts still keeps the tradition within the winter sports theme, but it has less events than any of the Epyx multi-event sports games, and this one was only ever released for four platforms, in contrast to, for example, Winter Games' twelve. Instead of finishing off this year's Christmas season with a traditional Epyx sports title, I decided to go for something slightly lighter.
