At the Metro Ski and Snowboard show there was a snowboard game on the Xbox 360 that you could have a go at. Does anyone know what it was??
You could get off your board and walk around, get on lifts and throw snowballs around. It was so cool!!
Thanks!

It'll have been either Shaun White, or Stoked.

Yeah, pretty sure they had both, but I know I saw some machines with Stoked on, which makes sense considering it was only recently released in the UK.

Did any else have a go on Tony Hawk's Ride, with the skateboard controller?
That worked suprisingly well. Surely it's the ideal candidate for a snowboarding game...

if you could throw snowballs around and get on lifts it was shaun whites. but imo its a sh*t game, theres no progression in it, you just go round randomly doing challenges with no incentive or enjoyment, plus all the mountains are open from the start so you have no reason to play it much after youve had a go on each. the control system and animations are pretty crappy and the speed of the game is just annoying.

stoked on the other hand is pretty good, you dont have parks or anything, just real back country mountains and a helicopter but its a much more enjoyable game with a set progression through it and sure it has alot of flaws but its the best of the new snowboard games since amped 3.

although i still play amped 2 over the both of them, xbox original version that i nabbed off ebay for 3quid :D

Shaun White Snowboarding was definitely on two Xbox's about as far as you could get from the main entrance on the ground floor on the Saturday.
