5 of 5 GREAT GAME! but ONLY if you have an Xbox360 contr Friday, December 26, 2008
The legendary Ashman from Team-cascadia.com from seattle wa
DO NOT BUY THIS GAME IF YOU PLAN ON PLAYING IT WITH A KEYBOARD
you cant do anything buy lean left and right - no tricks at all no nothing, a waste of money. BUT IF YOU DO HAVE AN XBOX CONTROLLER with usb the game is totally awesome, I bought this because my 360 is in the shop being repaired and I have an awesome new PC with top of the line graphics + it was half the price on PC (mine was 26 bucks) and I wanted to see if the graphics would be better since I have two 8800 gtx cards in crossfire mode with a gig of video ram.
The result-
I found out that you can download a free program that allows your 360 game controller to work with all microsoft games on your PC, and with the controller its awesome, truly awesome. I'm a pro-level snowboarder with 23 years experience and I can do half of the tricks in the game in real life, which makes me a good judge- and the part I find fascinating is how well the designers got the real life physics of the tricks down pat, perfect! The only slightly dissapointing part was that the graphics (while pretty good) are exactly the same on a supercomputer as they are on the xbox360, there is no "very high" setting just 2 -low and high but the high is more of a medium, no ability to change resolutions at all. The good side is the game looks the same and cost half as much as the one for the 360 or other consoles. but to reiterate DO NOT BUY WITHOUT GETTING A 360 CONTROLLER FOR YOUR PC ALONG WITH IT, or you will unbelievably dissapointed. if you do that or have one, its an awesome game - a MUST HAVE.
Cheers
