This is a great game for the whole family. The adults and kids all have fun playing this game. It's got a great laid back feel, just like you would expect from Shaun White. Great game!!

So bad it hurts,
by A. THIELE, 2008-12-27

Having played snowboarding games for years and finally getting a PS3 this Christmas, I was really looking forward to this game. I figured, without an SSX game available, I was stuck with this but it couldn't be that bad, could it? Boy, was I wrong. Boring and bad all rolled into one. I gave it two stars as it is nice to look at. I can't for the life of me figure out why you just can't race or pull tricks -- even if you suck at it. I consider myself pretty savvy when it comes to games (though we didn't have an Atari 2600 growing up -- we did have an Intellivision) so I don't think I'm missing some part of the gameplay or setup. That said, maybe it's me that sucks. Then again, I'm pretty sure it's this 'game'. Look elsewhere for your entertainment.

This game blows!,

I got it for Christmas, excited to finally have a snowboarind game on the PS3. I sold my 360 to get a PS3 shortly after buying Amped 2. This game can not even stand in the same category as Amped 1 or 2. In Amped 2, the physics felt great, the hang time was enjoyable and the trick engine was fairly easy to get use to. The physics in this game are absolutely awful! You jump off a cliff, fall at what seems like 500mph, and then come slamming to a horribly screeching halt when you near the ground...and then get some weird reverb hiccup before you start riding again. It feels so clumsy. I always saw Amped as trying to be a boarding simulator with outrageous airs and SSX as a more arcade style, but exhilarating boarding experience...this game does neither, it just pisses you off. I would pass, all the way. Here's still hoping for a decent PS3 game!

Fun but glitchy,
by Stewey, 2008-12-23

This is the first good snowboarding game to come out on the PS3 and it is very enjoyable! The gameplay is good, although I really did not enjoy the coin collecting part of it. I did not give it 5 stars because of the coins and the glitches. Make sure to beat Shaun White on the halfpipe and do not quit or you will have to restart the game again. This happened to me and it sucked! Besides this minor annoyance though I think this is a great game!

Where is the next gen?,
by Barry Sherman, 2008-12-16

I can't see how this game sells for sixty bucks brand new! On top of that I'm still kicking myself for buying it local for sixty bucks!! I have several complaints about this game. The half pipe has a glitch, the game is straight up boring. After three hours I collected all the coins and have the best boards, there is no content. I'm glad I can throw snowballs at Shaun for puting his name on such a peice of @*$&%!!! I am a snowboarder and I play these types of games to get me through the summer. This got me through an afternoon, with frustration and buyers remorse. I'm still left wondering WHERE IS THE NEXT GEN? I've been playing all of the snowboarding games since the NES, this one makes no advances, if anything it takes a step back. Cool boarders and SSX are far superior then this game will ever be.
