Amped: Freestyle Snowboarding

"One Great Game"

Controls:7/10 Good but they could use some work in amped 2:)Also the game is kind of like Tony Hawk:)Which lots of games have stolen this engine from neversoft:)oops and activision:(The game plays like just about every snowboarding game out there:(It just has more goals and is a lot more fun:)I really like action sports games if you like them its worth the money:)But the game can have some control problems at key times:)

Gameplay:8/10 The gameplay is probably the best ive seen in a while:)There are so many different challenges:) It is so diverse:)There are sponsor callenges(which are very awesome):)There are so many sponsors like:DC,Burton,Swatch,and many more:)There are high score challenges which are sometimes very hard:(There are also media challenges you have to do tricks in front of camera men:)Back to the sponsor challenges:)You have to get your *AMPED* metor:)Hence the name Amped:)Ha Ha:)The sponsor have certain kinds of tricks they like such as spins,flips,tweaked grabs,grabs,off-axis tricks,and so on:) This is probably the best feature of the game:)

Replay value:8/10 You can go through and get all the sponsors:)Get all the high scores:)Get all the media challenges:)And get all the snowmen on every level:)

Levels:8/10 The level layouts are amazing.There are long levels and short levels.There are spots like burton,nixon jib fest,backyard levels,and many more.There are multiple ways down each run:)There are also many runs in each level. There are also sponsor levels that all you do is media and sponsor challenges. TRhese are the best layed out levels.The levels have almost all replay values. they rock.

Multiplayer:8/10 there are lots of pros and you can use your created character:)your friends can bring their characters on a memory card and use them. There are many multiplayer games like high score. Each player takes a run down the mountain:)Which ever character has the highest score wins:)There are many other games:)I just cant remember them all:(But multiplayer is very, very fun in this game.There are so many mountains the fun will never end.There is also single player free ride if you dont have any friends:(

Replay Value:7/10 this game has plenty of replay value. You can go back through and get all the sponsors. You can get the high scores. You can beat all the pros in each level.You can get all of your portfolio filled.You do this by beating all the media challenges in every level.It is pretty funny when you get them.There is endless possibilites on what you can do.Like I said before it has great multiplayer.

Value:8/10 this game is now on the platnium hits collection. That means its.. 20 bucks you guessed it.So if your looking for an almost endless game and you have 20 bucks burning a hole in your pocket buy this game. Yuoll see why once you buy it:)
