Bombing the slopes and surfing the pow pow are phrases you'll only get away with on a snowboarding trip, so it's just as well Shaun White Snowboarding has arrived to teach us the lingo. We grab our board and warm gloves and find out if this new franchise is worth leaving the ski lodge for.

I've heard that the game's pretty great on the Wii utilising the balance board.

"After all, computer games could be used to let you experience anything – so why confine yourself to something realisitic, like playing football or snowboarding?"

I completely agree, I think that they SHOULDNT make sports games like football, soccer, and baseball for consoles/pc its bad enough on average now there is more and more kids not playing outside, seriously get off your ass and go out and play these games for real instead of working out your fingers ~_~ I for one love soccer, good for the heart and so forth. Now when it comes to more extreme sports sure I can see those being turned into a console game but things like the games I mentioned really shouldnt. Anyhow ya I know I will be flamed for it but its just what I think.

How about this game on PC, if the port isn't too bad there is the option to map any controls you like.

To be honest, the screenshots make it look pretty cool.

Mate, it's available on Steam for $29.99.

The game was launched on PC at the same time, this is just a review on the 360 version only. Seems PC's being able to change controls would eliminate the aticle's number one problem with the game.

Whipii! Finaly a good snowboarding game for PC ^^ :P
