      Transworld Snowboarding (best snowboarding game ever made that no one played)

      Hey, I've played all the "amped" games, and other snowboard games, but when I got "Transworld Snowboarding" for the Xbox, it blew my mind how solid everything was. I would go snowboarding every weak, and I got to tell you, if there is one game that can really give you that experience, it would be this one.

      In fact, I just stopped snowboarding during that time, because the game had such good snowboarder reflexes and the tricks I was doing in the game were just beautiful and addictive (and a little bit unrealistic considering its a game), but I remember all my friends were just like "fuck Halo 2, lets play that snowboarding game"

      ...anyways I doubt anyone has played it, but it would be nice to see this game get remade for newer consoles, because it was absolutely perfect, but for some reason the majority (fools) ended up ignoring its release and continued playing Amped (which was no where near as good (and you would agree if you played this game))

      didn't mean to sound too one sided, but any true snowboarder would say that it was the best snowboarding game ever made. Beautiful graphics and varied maps and true park set ups.

      Sorry, did I just miss-read or did you say you stopped snowboarding because the game was too realistic?

      okay, it was half joke, and half truth, because the game made me want to snowboard and try and recreate the steeze that I found in the game, but later that year I broke my arm on a giant table top jump, so really I should have stopped, because my arm required 6 surgeries (not a joke).

      Park City ski resort is where I broke my arm, but I've been to many many other places too.

      I don't necessarily look for realism in a game, but I'd be willing to give this game a try to see what you're talkin about.

      Honestly, though, the most fun I had in any snowboarding game was SSX:Tricky and SSX3. (SSX 1 was good, but was kinda uneventful w/o uber tricks)

      I used to play Coolboarders and 1080 snowboarding, but even though they were more realistic, weren't nearly as fun.
      naturals are what we call people who did all the right things accidentally

      Only amped worth playing was #3 just because it was funny. I second SSX: Tricky being completely awesome.
