sarahpetryDec 14, 2008I had so much fun playing the game! Being able to ride anywhere on the mountain made it seem more like really riding. My heart rate definitely increased when I triggered an avalanche! It's nice to play a game that is based on having fun and not blowing something or someone up. Thanks Shaun!

May 10, 2023I never got Amped or SSX, but I was happy to have this game. As a fan of Shaun White, I got everything i needed. But still I'm more of a Tony Hawk fan. Overall rating: 7.5.

It’s good fun, even if it doesn’t feel quite as thrilling as we would have liked. With a little more tweaking of the controls and maybe a new approach to the genre à la Skate, this could have fared much better.

It's clear that Ubisoft had some big ideas for Shaun White Snowboarding, but many of these have been hampered by an overly difficult control scheme, cumbersome navigation, a terrible map, too much collecting and a disappointing frame rate. The recreation of the four ski resorts is excellent, the online functionality is well thought out, and at times the views are magnificent, but the game just isn't as much fun as it should have been.

But by far the most irritating aspect of the handling is the inability to simply make your board go where you want it to.
