Great game. The gameplay is fun with a great deal of variety to the challenges and they fixed the rail grind scoring problems of Amped 2. Its certainly not a sim by any means but its nowhere near the crazy, arcade Candy Land of SSX.

I think alot of people blasted Amped 3 due to the humor and "Xtreme" attitude, but I found it very entertaining (and I could not stand the Jackass flavor of the Tony Hawk Underground games).

Amped 3 is by far the best in the series in my opinon.

I thought Amped 3 was fun. I still have it and may go back to it from time to time. Definitely a sleeper title on the 360.

Ooooh good call, stocking stuffer for the lad i feel.

Totaly forgot about this one i remember quite a few guys liked this one when it was released.
Quirky angle (acid trip) but solid snowboarding.

I purchased this game for my son last week. It was $18.99 at Best Buy, so I'm going to us it as a stocking stuffer.

I thought Amped 3 was excellent. Too bad they rushed it out and didn't include online play, because of it had online play like Amped 2, I think this game would have been a huge success. Yeah, some of the humor is corny, but it doesn't stop the game from being a ton of fun.

Yeah it was very good. I finished about 90% of it before I moved on...one of the few games that have had that much staying power with me.
