Amped sucked? Wha?!!! That's news to me, playa. Amped 2 was/is the best snowboarding game in existence.
I agree with you fully, Amped 2 was, and still is the most true to life snowboarding experience in a video game. Hopefully Stoked will takes its spot
I agree with both of you, fully and wholeheartedly. I was a huge fan of 1080 back in the day, but when I played Amped 2, it took the king's throne. Most realistic to date (including all current gen games). SSX is phony... its the Tony Hawk of snowboarding. I.M.O.
I also hope that Stoked is the successor to Amped 2. Amped 3 was a major letdown, arcade type game (but it was still fun, just completely over the top and unrealistic) and Shaun White... well, it's shaun white. Anyone who follows snowboarding knows that there are guys who do way sicker lines than him, off of real terrain in places where Shaun White would sh!t his pants. Riders like Gigi Ruf, Nicolas Muller, Travis Rice. I'd even take Jonaven Moore or TREVOR FRICKIN ANDREWS over shaun white. And 3 out of those 5 dudes will be in the game. Sick.
Absinthe Films ftw! Also, bongfish for going for realism over arcade. I may buy two copies of this game, especially if its not selling well, just to support this direction in snowboarding games.
