I'd have to say that Amped 3 is a fun game. Given the fact that I like games like this, such as cool boarders for the other systems. Amped 3 reminds me of a Tony Hawk Game but instead of a skateboard it's a snow board. Only one major downfall of this game is the fact that your boarder seems like they're moving in slow motion all the time, and if you tap it to the left she goes WAY left and its semi-hard to navigate. Other than that the fun rating is a 5 I love it!

This game is alot more realistic than SSX and has an amazing storyline. The areas are based on real mountains and are very open. The best parts are being able to ride a snowmobile at anytime in the game, which makes getting places very easy.If you liked Tony Hawk, than this game is basically the same with the controls and feel.
Great Snowboarding Experience!

My brother got this game for me for Christmas and I was impressed! I've seen a few other games on the 360, but seeing Amped made me realize what a next-generation console the 360 is!
Gliding through the snow really gives you a sense of carving through powdery flakes, and the mountains are huge!! My favorite feature is the ability to snowmobile around an entire mountain, exploring different areas and finding new locations to board. Like I said I got this game on Christmas, but I still haven't explored every inch of even the first mountain. 2k did a great job!
The story mode is also really great, especially if you're into really silly humor. Some of it might seem a little stupid, but that's the whole point! Take it for what it's worth, and it's actually hysterical. Very seldom do I find myself laughing out loud at a video game, but this game has done it on more than one occasion!
Cool graphics, cool story...what else?? Well the gameplay is also greatly improved. If anyone played Amped 1 or 2, you know that the biggest problem was always the controls. They were awkward and complicated, but A3 takes a nice step towards simplicity. The realistic feel of the first two games is still in full force, just without awkward controls this time!
Could you ask for anything more?? Get this game and give it a try...it's really one of my favorites!
Very easy controls a little to easy

Ok the first thing i want to say is that the guy Gregory T.schiller needs to be slapped first he gives Quak 4 a 1/5 which is a great game and now this one yeah sure this game is a little stupid with the wiener boy character and such but it is still a fun game and he did not play it i garanty you. The only problome with the game that i have is that the controls are a little to easy like when i try to hop over a box and then land on it and yea i know that is what tail bonk is for but still make it a little more chalenging. Pick up this game it is great.
i am not under 13 i just dont want to get an account.
GREAT under-rated game.

This has got to be the most under-rated game for the 360.
This game is friggin great. Let's start with what matters: The Gameplay. The gameplay is great and the controls are easy to pick up. There are so many things to do and see in this game, from actual snowboarding, to snowmobiling to throwing snowballs. The tricks are easy and I would say an average gamer would be able to master this game.
The Graphics and environment are equally impressive. The mountains are HUGE and it's pretty much a free roam like the GTA series. There is nothing like jumping off the tallest mountain in the game and plunging downward, it really gives a roller-coaster type effect in your stomach. Especially if you play on a big screen TV.
The Cut-Scenes and the story. You have never seen cut-scenes or a story quite like this before in a game. The movies are a true work or art. From sock puppets to plastic toy men these movies will have you laughing at the same time you are wondering what the???@@@@!!!!
I highly recommend this game, as it is my favorite on the 360 so far.
Complete and Utter Failure

I rented Amped 360 after reading the good reviews some people gave it. My analaysis ...
Hardly worth renting, much less buying; especially compared to other games.
Painfully long Load times and annoying appeal-to-7-year-old interface are hard to stomach.
After getting through all of that nonsense ... the game is really 10 steps back from good snowboarding games like the SSX series (I really haven't played any others; there are probably dozens AT LEAST as good as SSX, if not better.
Admittedly I didn't play Amped 360 for very long, but my first impressions were this is a train wreck that you'd be wise to avoid.

If you want a game that really is out there and terribly painful to look at this is it. I have a few words to describe it. FUNNY, cartoonish, Funny, relaxed, Funny, brainless, Funny and Oh it is Funny. The Graphics aren't all about this game it is more the storyline or lack thereof. It is snowboarding...not Tony Hawks Wastelands stuff. Not that tony is not funny...but I think if you don't really care about winning or just want to fool around this game lets you do it. Buy it...it isn't that expensive, probably the cheapest 360 game thusfar.
Buy this game for the fun of it

When Amped 1 first came out on the original xbox, I was blown away and that's really the only reason I purchased xbox. Amped 2 was a step up, and now with the release of the xbox 360 well I'm not 100% satisfied. The original game is in my opinion much better then this one. It's almost like the xbox 360 HD isn't an option when it comes to game play. Little sluggish, graphics are clean but aren't mind blowing. However, compared to other snowboard video games, this one is in my top 10. Snowboard games released on PS2, just don't compare. Get Amped 3 if you like fun, fast, easy to navigate game play. Plus, the season "real" season is over, meaning this game should be pretty darn cheap to purchase.
