They stoles it from us. They ruins it. [/gollum]

"What the f---?! That's my first thought upon seeing Amped 3, 2K's revisionist version of the snowboarding game. Gone is the sense of realism, replaced with easier controls and a whole lot of surrealism. "


"As a fan of the Amped series, I couldn't wait to see more. Then I was told that ninjas will fly out of your ass while playing. Ninjas."
 
If the Graphics in Amped 3 are as good as the graphics were in Amped 2 at their time... this game could look amazing in 1080i Widescreen on my HDTV.
 
In an effort to add individuality to Amped 3, riders emit a trail of symbols as long they are tearing it up. There are about 20 customizable trailers to choose from, one of which has 16-bit ninjas shooting out from behind you. The 2D art trailer is oddly reminiscent of Jet Set Radio and creates an interesting look.

:lol that sounds AWESOME!! If it plays like the first Amped with less insane difficulty it will be mine.
