    Can you suggest me a good snowboarding game?

    The last -and only- one I've played was Supreme Snowboarding, which I enjoyed quite a bit. Since then I've not yet heard of any game good enough to give a shot, although I have not investigated too much.

    Specs are in my signature. I don't think I have any problem since I can properly run GTA 4, but you never know!

    P.S.: I take this thread to ask you If there is any info on the release of Mafia II and CoD: Modern Warfare 2; the only titles I'm waiting for. I would like info about dates and also system requirements... Thanks. :)

    For me all snowboard games have sucked, except for 1080 snowboarding, amped and amped 2.

    Also there is a new one coming out on Xbox360 called stoked it looks promising, anyway consoles are the way to go for snowboarding games.

    Gotta vote Shaun White's Snowboarding.My friend brought it over with his PS3 and it was amazing.Most realistic smow board game ever IMO.There is a bit of a learning curve though.

    Many suggestions guys! As usual you don't dissapoint. :)

    I have to Google a bit before getting one of this games. Any of you have played Supreme Snowboarding? It would be great to have a suggestion of someone who has played Supreme.

    Here you have a quick review. ;) A worth game to consider in netbooks and systems like these.

    Edit: I think I tried to install in Vista but I couldn't run it...

    Well, if you consider it's a game released in 2000, it is really good. The graphics are so-so, and the phisycs (just sometimes) are unnatural, but it's one of those games which you keep playing and playing just to beat your own times. Really engaging and fun to play. :cool:
