  • Summary: Massive Mountains - Amped 3 features seven new resorts, up to three times larger than levels in Amped 1 & 2. Take on hundreds of challenges around the resorts, or pull out your sled and try to hang on for dear life. Explore the entire mountain on a snowmobile, get away from it all in the back country, or find the perfect spot and build your own obstacles, rails, and jumps. Snowbox - The resorts are loaded with hundreds of challenges; beat them and earn upgrades, new stuff, or Coin you can use to buy a ton of swag. And these challenges aren't just about your skills on a snowboard... there's snowmobiling, sledding, and more. All your top scored runs, hang-times and crashes are automatically posted for all to see on Live... see how you measure up against the rest of the planet and go grab the top spot. Park Builder - Anywhere, anytime, you can plant your own jumps and rails to create a personal terrain park, add things to trick off to get better High Scores, or just make a difficult challenge a little easier. You can even create your own sessioning area. And you earn newer and crazier objects to plant as you play the game. [2K Sports]… Expand

    The story and presentation for Amped 3 is the funniest, most tripped out, wacky and bizarre thing you have ever seen! I kid you not, this game redefines kooyness - whatever these guys were on when they put this game together, I want some!

    Aped 3 isn't just a game that works, it's a title that will suck hours away from your life and demand that you dominate mountains. [Dec 2005, p.163]

    As a single player experience, Amped 3 shows lots of humor, creativity and diverse gameplay. Gamers will easily lose three hours in a sitting, trying to unlock additional challenges and courses.

    Amped 3 aims to keep you distracted by constantly nickel-and-diming you with a hundred mini-challenges, each with its own pointless reward, spread across a dozen mountainsides. [Feb 2006, p.87]

    Ok, this is an awesome game. The snowboarding is fantastic, no other franchise makes you feel *serene* while you play. The mini games are fun, the cutscenes are genuine and occasionally hilarious. Watch closely, you'll see a million jokes that you didn't catch the first time through. As for beating SSX? Amped, while still a fantasy, has always been more realistic than SSX. If you were looking for SSX 360, you were looking in the wrong place. Compared to the miserable, calculated, 'tude of THAW, Amped is three feet of powdery joy.… Expand

    Satirical, nonsensical storyline and very fun game play, have played through twice, enjoyed it immensely both times.

    I agree with Magnus G. Amped 1 & 2 were so much better! Why did they have to go and mess it all up by ruining the presentation and dumbing down the gameplay to appease the casual mainstream SSX crowd? By trying to please everybody with its attempt at a balance between arcade and realism it just ends up pleasing nobody by being too easy and unrealistic! Now where am I supposed to get my simulation fix of snowboarding? Ahhh I guess I'll have to go back to playing Amped 2. I'm hoping now that Indie Built have gone bust that Ubisoft are going to come through with Shaun White Snowboarding.… Expand
