DIsappointment from first snow flake.

by eodo Oct 9, 2009, 4:44 PM PDT

This game is horribly glitch ridden.

* Be it the bad graphic in 1080p! How can someone be standing on a board on the snow and have a foot gap below the board and snow pack?
* Bad collision detection (how can I be half way inside a fallen tree!).
* Ability to get stuck in terrain and NEVER get out of it (ain't fun to watch your guy or gal stand there and hop up and down.. its even better when another person gets stuck with you!)

UbiSoft must be sad that their name is associated to this title.

The patch didn't fix enough to make this a game that I would suggest anyone other than a Shaun White die hard even put in their PS3.

Fun for a little while. Waste of money... NOT an SSX. NO OFFLINE

by Dannyr326 Jul 23, 2009, 10:37 AM PDT

I was very disappointed when I played this game. I was hoping this game would at least be as good as SSX but i was wrong. Its fun for a little while then gets frustrating and boring. There is no multiplayer offline so u cant chill with people and race. The missions are kinda lame. The graphics are pretty awesome but the gameplay is not even close.
I dont understand why people like the snowball fighting so much. its cool but dumb in races.

Waste of time !

Frustrating issues make Shaun White Snowboarding seem less like a downhill rush and more like an uphill grind.

WARNING: Highly addictive online xD

by Edwarz- May 11, 2009, 7:00 PM PDT

SWS is one of the greatest games my PS3 has had inside.

Graphics: probably not the best around, but they are pretty good.

Gameplay: At the beggining is kinda hard landing and spinning, but you get the hang of it eventually, and it feels great. Not too difficult, not easy either. You can also customize your rider and your gear, show your style.

Soundtrack: It has great songs that make the riding more fun. Metro Station, MGMT, Audioslave, Incubus, AntiFlag and Modest Mouse are some of the bands you will be listening to. (You can turn the music off too)

Storyline: This is not an RPG but a simple snowboarding game, so the storyline is porbably the less important thing. Even tough, the story will lead you to a series of difficult challenges and competitions. You're gonna be busy for a while.

ONLINE: This is the golden feature of SWS. You wanna become the best? You gotta ride against people around the world, and it becomes addictive. The game has also around 100 trophies to unlock.

If you like extreme sports and chilling at home playing online, this is a great option.

Awesome game, killer music, feels like your on the mountain

by jvanny3 Mar 7, 2009, 11:38 PM PST

This is one of those games that you just want, and it's worth buying. If you are looking to shred with Shaun White you will be having a blast on this game, there are a couple of downsides though. The online game play is poor, you really don't get much to do while in online games, there are a few competitions or you can just shred the mountain with some friends but it could use a beef up as far as online game play goes. The music is killer and gets you in that back side of the mountain ready to party mood. It is a great snowboarding game and doesn't come across as one of the other EA games that it competes with. I really enjoyed the campaign and was worth the $$. The four mountains you travel through are incredible and the graphics will take you into what seems to be the ultimate mountain experience.

BEST GAME EVER!

by hurricanes9 Jan 26, 2009, 7:25 PM PST

I thought it was going to be terrible but when I got it I was amazed it's the best game i've ever got even better than COD5, COD4, RESSISTANCE2, and GUITAR HERO WORLD TOUR combined! AMAZING GAME!

I want it

by Rebelious_Sapien Jan 24, 2009, 4:58 PM PST

I'm a huge SSX fan, I consider it to be the best snowboarding game ever made and by the look of the trailer this game might join SSX and perhaps even beat it... I wish I had it though to really be able to rate it
