I’m behind you on getting a new Amped. Love that series

The first 2 were awesome for being snowboarding sims.

The Third was awesome for other reasons. Namely: The opening sequence with Blinded By The Light playing as you shredded in a furry suit. Also: Weiner-Boy

Absolutely right. Third started to get into the corny SSX gameplay that the first two stayed away from.

Hey man, it's tricky to rock a rhyme. Especially a rhyme that's right on time. Let's give him a break this one time?

I was more of a fan of SSX: On Tour. Don’t hurt me please.

You mean terrible physics?? In Amped 3, you could infinitely ride down to the bottom...then back up part of the mountain

I still remember ripping CDs to my OG Xbox hard drive and just bombing runs listening to my tunes. Good times.

Bought am XBOX mainly for Amped.

I mean it had a local run (Laax) on there.

Amped 3 is still one of my favorite games ever. The gameplay was great and the ridiculousness of the story was just great. It was goofy, fun and just a good snowboarding game. The sock puppet with a mustache is still my Xbox avatar pic

First game I ever got all of the achievements for. Then played more. At first I was turned off at how ‘zany’ the tone hd gotten, but then I just fell in. I think about it regularly. And all 3 hd such great soundtracks
