Hi, the first time I played this game was around when I was in middle school, I used to look forward to playing it everyday when I would get off of school, it was one of the most addictive games I’ve ever played. It was similar to other games I used to play back on the PlayStation 2 that had anything that included the concept of extreme sports and “SnowBoard Hero” is one of them. The graphics are great and looked amazingly awesome, the quality is great too! I love these characters, they are all unique in their own ways, the tracks are cool, and the soundtrack is awesome. The game is CHALLENGING WHICH is the best point for any gamer experience. Earlier I was planning to get this game since it was so much nostalgia since I used to play it back then. Now, I need to play it again, though, PLEASE UPDATE SOON, and let us know soon, developer. Last,THANKS for you, your team and crew of developers for bringing back EXTREME, to the gaming universe! -Rainy
The graphics are wonderful, as is the sound! The control design and responsiveness could use some fine-tuning, make them more responsive. It IS a lot like SSX3, one of my all time favorite games!!
I bought this game not realizing that it wasn't compatible with my iPod. Please update this to support the 2nd generation iPod!!!
REMINDS ME OF COOL BOARDERS & SSX!!! I have countless hours playing this game and updating my the characters. Although theres one flaw NO MULTIPLAYER?!?!?!?! Until then 4 stars. :(
This game looks good, but the controls are lacking. When it comes to what you can do there are limits, for example swiping left after a jump performs a 360, making a 180 impossible if desired. The controls seem to lag as well, when turning direction there is a slight lag in the response making the controls feel loose.
It's so much more fun than this. The controls just don't feel good to me with this one- somewhat of a cheap feel compared to the awesome "Crazy Snowboard."
This game is sweet. I agree that 180°'s would be nice, but not a big deal. I've only started playing, but it seems a reasonable difficulty. I really do not like IAP's, but so far it looks like you can play through and open stuff up. You should not have to buy stuff, unless you are too impatient to play through. But if that's the case, then why would you bother buying it, since ya prob won't play it anyways?!
