Amped: Freestyle Snowboarding
Overall: At the time of release this game rocked.It concentrated on snowboarding not giggles from some cut out gallary of people .Lots of challenges and a good bag of tricks.Some say "not enough tricks".I can understand a pro snowboarder saying this but lets be real .The trick combinations are numerous and the high scoring ones are not a piece of cake to pull off.Gameplay: I'm sure the other post's will desribe the game .Simple ,beat high scores,beat pro riders,kill some snowmen (stupid part of game)
Graphics: Great detail,movement of clothes,snow spray ,board tracks,trees look natural as does the main trails.snow falls from trees when hit .
Audio: rails sound cool ,hits to the environment around you are alright.edge carving is alright .the sound tracks are plentiful but honestly,I don't think too many players know any of the songs
Suggestions: big air jumps need the ability to center your player (or chance to center)when a trick goes bad.A wrong move and the player goes into a dead weight fall to the ground with no chance to recover.The pro 3 challenge were good but some of the lay outs for jumps didn't make sense.3 small lip jumps in a row with zero landing room in between each needing 13,000 plus to beat the pro was a little stupid but still challenging i guess.

Midtown Madness 3
Overall: The other posts do a fine job of this.Hey ,it's a car game, not too much else to say .Drive ,have fun ,and pass a boring night crashing into your friends online.Gameplay: This game requires a good memory of the city maps .It can be a pain trying to find a paint job you see with the wrong car .You do some very simple challenges and races.The races can be won if your having trouble just by selecting a bus to race with .Plus its very funny when you race the beast's anyway .
Graphics: People complain about the graphics but hey ,its city driving .If you find it to "blocky" ,thats what cities are .The attention to detail is very good .Considering your told what cities you will be driving in on the package ,the purchaser is fully aware of the game play ahead .
Audio: Engine sounds are good but most all cars sound the same ,didn't really like that.Racer's shouldn't be concerned with environmental sounds anyway .Hear your engine ,bumps ,and other cars .What more do you need.
Suggestions: Ability to download new city,new challenges.Don't have "secret cars " to unlock unless thier BETTER than the ones you unlock by beating the game .Ability to place compass in any corner of the screen would be a nice touch .
Overall Score: 8.0 / 10
