  • Summary: Head into the backcountry and experience Stoked, the open-world snowboarding game that lets you choose where, when and in what conditions you want to ride as you work your way up the ranks of the sports to become the hottest rider in the world! Every single inch of five huge mountains can be explored, complete with dynamic weather conditions that change how and where you can ride. Set a trend with Style Crafting as other riders on the mountain adapt to mimic how you ride and how you dress. Expand

  1. In conclusion, Stoked is probably one of the most competent snowboarding games available that although has a rather high learning curve, if you do manage to put in the time, the gameplay mechanics will definitely be rewarding enough.
  2. Stoked is a decent snowboarding game, however the drawn out beginning is its downfall.
  3. Stoked wasn’t exactly the brilliant snowboarding game I’ve been waiting for, but it was definitely entertaining. I may have gotten frustrated a few times, but I kept going back for more, and I loved the sense of satisfaction I got when I pulled off a particularly difficult challenge.
  4. As you do your first turn and notice your character eerily rotating through space in a box, no apparent bodily movement guiding the trick, the realisation dawns that there's almost no fun to be gleaned from satisfactorily pulling off a stunt in Stoked. [Nov 2009, p.112]

  1. One of my all time favorite snowboarding games and it is the most realistic one i have ever played. After being an ssx fan for a long time i was not sure if snowboarding games really had a future but this game was a very pleasant surprise. IF YOU LIKE SKATE then definitely get this game, its the Skate of Snowboarding games with good graphics and game play. Expand

    Finally i'm stoked on stokEd. It was a long time waiting for a new game in the tradition of Amped to hit Xbox. Besides some minor glitches this game surpasses all other snow games, maybe even Amped 2. Weather effects & mountains need to be seen to be believed and controls/physics feel instantly good (some FlickIt-Skate experience will definitely help here). Expand

    Huge open world mountains, which offer loads of oppertunity. Dynamic weather, which makes the mountains feel bigger as they change based on conditions. An Expansive trick list and a long list of challenges make this game the spiritual successor of Amped 2. A few bad physics when touching rocks, trees, or other non snow related objects can be frustrating. Expand
  4. Graphically, one of the best sports games out there, along with the changing weather condition it really creates a realistic feel, but the lack of any real trick system sinks the game very soon after starting it up. Expand
