2K Sports today announced Amped 3 is a launch day candidate for the Xbox 360. The only snowboard game to be
available for Xbox 360, Amped 3 features an all-new physics engine,
enhanced controls and the world’s greatest winter resorts to create the
most authentic snowboarding experience. Action is interlaced with a hip
storyline that encompasses the distinct snowboarder culture, style,
music and attitude.
Amped 3 stays true to its roots as the most authentic trick-based
snowboarding game on seven new real-world resorts. Amped 3 is three
times larger than the levels in the preceding Amped games. The
Snowbox offers hundreds of challenges at various resorts, including
the option for players to test their skills snowmobiling and sledding
and then have their top scored runs, hang-times and crashes
automatically posted on Xbox Live. Given the
vastness of the mountains, players explore the backcountry on snowmobile
to find the perfect spots and then use the Park Builder for planting
their own jumps and rails.
