Absolutely Excellent.
This is my first snowboard game so I have nothing to compare it to but as a game in it's own right it rules.
One mountain with three peaks doesn't sound that much but it is. You can pretty much ride anywhere on and off piste, from n*pple deep pow to hardpack to ice and the board handling and speed changes with each one. Jumps and rails everywhere to pull of some crazy Uber and Super Uber tricks, which although highy un-realsitic look great.
There is loads to do on each peak (smallest=beginner, biggest=expert) You have a large number of achievements required to move onto the next peak. These are split up into Race, Freestyle and Freeride. Freestyle consists of slopestyle and big air, and freeride has lots of separate challenges. Also in the freeride, you can just board down the mountain and follow the signs to which event you feel like doing aswell as stopping at the lodge to buy some new gear or to get transported somewhere in yout heli-plane!
As for looks, it's great. Keeps the feel of the mountain but still looks flashy with plenty of things to pick up.
Lots of characters with loads of customisable features, clothes etc.
Now the best part of the game-the soundtrack. Definately the best soundtrack on any game i've played. Tunes from Audio Bullys, Dilated Peoples, Jane's Addiction, Swollen members, X-Ecutioners and many more.
I think i'll be playing this game for quite a while as there is so much to do and it's not at all easy, but not too hard. |
