Amped 2 - Xbox

Not a new game.
It's frustrating that this game was marked as a new game. It was packaged and wrapped up like a new game, it had authenticity stickers on it. The case, the paperwork, everything inside was nice and it seemed legit. First time I went to play it, it came on right away and was playable. Second time (few hours later) that wasn't the case. When I went to look at it and see what was going on, I noticed initials were written on it. It's absolutely NOT a new game.

The last of the mohicans
This game was the last good Amped ever made, and the last good snowboarding game ever made. Sure, the industry today is about pew pew pew instead of extreme sports, which is why you need to reach back to appreciate the golden age of extreme sports. Amped 2 is everything you could want in a snowboarding game, and it takes itself seriously, not like Amped 3 which felt like it was developed by a bunch of fratboys.This game has better physics and controls than the 3rd game, and a better soundtrack. That's all there is to it folks.

the best snowboarding game ever
i keep my x-box hooked up just for this game! Amped 2 sets the standard for snowboard games out there! no lie, this is by far the best snowboard game ever. ssx are too fake and fast. amped 3 for 360, sucks compared to 2. Will someone please develop another realistic snowboard game like amped 2 for the newer systems please!!!! shawn whites snowboarding sucks along with every other one like it. i cant tell you enough how amazing this game is. you can take it slow in the game and ride very realistic or go fast and have fun. no fake stuff like SSX

My favorite snowboarding game
I've played a few snowboarding games for Xbox, and this one is my favorite by far. The mountains are unique and fun, the challenges (gaps, tricks, snowmen) are cool, and the overall look and feel of the game is excellent. My one complaint is that the manual (and the game itself) use lots of terms - for tricks, especially - that a person unfamiliar with snowboarding can have trouble understanding. For example, what kind of trick is an "impossible"? At first I thought that was a description of the trick, but then I realized that was the actual trick name.But aside from that, this game is tons of fun. Highly recommended.

Best Snowboard Videogame Ever Made . . . Period.
So I've played every snowboard game I could find, on all different kinds of video game systems, going back to the original Cool Boarders for PS1. This is definitely the one to play!There are so many pros to this game:1. Excellent, realistic riding flow2. Great graphics (even 10 years later!)3. Nice, varied soundtrack. You rarely get sick of the music from hearing the same track over and over.4. Great in-air control of your rider. Some games just can't get this right!5. Sick trails based on real mountains and resorts.The only negative things I could say about this game, to be fair, is that the difficulty ramps up big time at the end (those challenges after you get the #1 rank are freakin' impossible!) Casual players may be put off by this. Anyone else looking for the ultimate snowboard game, stop looking now.

Improving upon perfection...
As perfect as Amped: Freestyle Snowboarding was (arguably the best sports game of the original Xbox,) Amped 2 is that much better. It improves upon nearly every aspect of the game. More tricks (butters and snowskates make their series debut here,) bigger mountains and a soundtrack doubled in size (bringing the total to 300+ songs.) Load times seem to be just a few seconds longer here, but it's understandable given the amount of content they jammed into just one disc. More recent 'boarding games like Stoked (Amped 2 programmer Tony Chiodo is current Director of Product Development for Stoked's developer Destineer,) capture a lot of the essence and spirit that made riding down virtual mountains feel just just as good as the real thing, but noting beats going back to the original series. Amped 2 is a must have, not just for action sports enthusiasts, but for all gamers everywhere.

This might be the greatest sports video game of all time
This might be the greatest sports video game of all time. Highly suggest. Still play it all the time and it never gets old. Here's my list:1. Battlefield 42. COD 4 MW3. Halo 24. Super Smash Bros 645. Amped 2
