 Description / Fact Sheet

Rip the ultimate line on wide-open, real mountains packed with jumps and rails. Hit the cliffs, jib the rainbow tree rail, or take the hidden paths for a different ride every time! Pull off tricks to get your face on magazine covers. In Amped: Freestyle Snowboarding, you can even become an international media superstar!

Open freestyle riding: Snowboard enthusiasts can forget miles of barren wasteland and tight tunnel races. Amped offers 1,500 jumps and rails on 80 wide-open mountain runs.

  • Players can jib, bonk, or spin between runs to hidden areas and cool jump sequences.

  • Mountains are alive with crashing boarders, flying pros, and roaming photographers.

    Spectacular real mountains: Players can ride the runs on real mountain resorts: Utah's Brighton, Vermont's Stratton, and California's Snow Summit.

  • Premier snowboarding resorts are re-created, with perfect snow conditions and jaw-dropping, built-for-Xbox graphics.

  • Four international fantasy venues (designed by world-renowned terrain architect Chris Gunnarson) are ready for exploration.

    Snowboarding media stars: Players vie for enough global exposure to become one of the world's snowboarding media superstars.

  • Snowboarders have the chance to perform insane tricks in front of roaming photographers and camera crews to get their face on video and magazine covers.

  • Players also can take on challenges such as "Follow the Pro," or jib the snow off trees to gain exposure and unlock mountains.

    More music: Amped: Freestyle Snowboarding offers 10-CDs-worth of hot new indie music, from pounding hip-hop to rhythmic reggae.

  • The game includes more than 220 songs from core indie labels.

  • Players also can rip their own songs onto Xbox, make their own playlists, and import them into the game.

    More in-game choice for maximum replayability: Players make gameplay choices on the mountain, not in a menu of disconnected events. Snowboarders start at the top of a peak and decide how to win from there.

  • There are hundreds of ways down, and each mountain is packed with rails, kickers, and half-pipes. Players take on 125 challenges, explore hidden areas, and locate new spectators for a different ride every time.

  • Gamers can design their own multiplayer sessions and make up the rules of freestyle competition.
