Amped 3 arrived 18 years ago as an Xbox 360 launch title. An enjoyable and unique snowboarding game, and sadly the final entry in the series.
When an original game becomes a hit, it can be difficult to re-configure its secret sauce into an equally enjoyable sequel.
Halo 5?....pffft to each his own but Halo 5 is a great game, every Xbox owner I know enjoyed it, the campaign was nice I like the teamwork concept and the multiplayer keeps 'em coming back with great gameplay & modes so much content, 343 did a helluva job.
Not Halo 5. It had a bad story COMPARED to past games but it didn't have a bad story overall. The gameplay was top notch, and multiplayer is still one of the best on the market right now. Custom games browser is the single greatest thing 343 did which I'm grateful for.
Nah it really was a bad campaign. MP was great but seriously, that was a hugely terrible story mode.
The story maybe, but some of the missions were extremely fun. The Sangehlios ones are right up there with the best missions in the franchise.
Halos mp was great but became boring quicker than most.
The story. Naw that was bad and it's marketing was a lie. Made it seem like old master chief was gunna fight that new fake master chief but the conflict ended up being a one punch cgi sequence.
Not to mention fighting the same boss over and over and over....plus add the no split screen mp and whala! You got the worst canon halo ever made
Agreed on sanghelios. That was one of the very few times it actually felt like halo.
Halo 5, FarCry 2, Dragon Age 2, Nuts and Bolts, and Gears of War: Judgement were all far from bad games. Hell, even Crackdown 2 was pretty fun.
There's a difference between a lesser sequel, and a bad game.
With a Title that says "horrible sequels", most of these are far from that. Better title should be disappointing sequels. But I'm sure they went with the former to get clicks and bring in the fanboys.
A retrospective takes a look at Amped: Freestyle Snowboarding, the original Xbox’s answer to SSX, and how calmer can sometimes be better.
OXM UK writes: "Instead of moaning about Enslaved's ending again, maybe it's time to revisit some of the other stranger endings on Xbox 360.
Most of the videos explain what needs to be said. Amped 3 is out and out mental while Madden NFL 11 is the only ending that sees you meet Obama. Prince of Persia has arguably the most divisive ending for an 360 game as you undo all the hard work you put in throughout its duration and Alan Wake... does it make sense to anyone?"
Amazing title !
