Amped 3 (Xbox 360, 2005)

Amped 3 is a pretty old xbox360 game. It came out the same year the new system had arrived and I'm pretty sure it was a launch game. The graphics are definitely not on par with what we've come accustomed to. If you can overlook some of these things you'll really enjoy it if you're a snowboarding fan. The story is just ridiculously entertaining and will have you laughing out loud. The trick system has been completely redone no longer are you doing tricks with the analog sticks a la amped 2, but more in a tony hawk style with the face buttons. I might have been one of the few who loved the original challenge and "realness" of the first 2 amped games. But it's not all doom and gloom the game is still entertaining. Although no longer feels like an amped game. With its crazy color palettes and crazy characters it feels more like SSX but of course SSX has a better trick system. The challenges in this game are varied from impressing the media with a certain type of trick they like to sledding down the mountain to see how many bones you can break. The humor is quite juvenile yet still entertaining. If you like snowboarding games or the first couple tony hawk games you'll definitely enjoy this game. Just don't go in expecting something totally revolutionary.
