Shaun White Snowboarding teaser lets you conquer fear ... and catchy songs

by Majed Athab { May 28th 2008 at 7:00PM }

We might not be in Paris for Ubidays, but we can get a taste of Ubi-ness with this teaser trailer for Shaun White Snowboarding. It's the next best thing, right? Anyway, enjoy the trailer with some breath-taking scenery being tackled by some risk-taking young bloods. Also, try not to get that Mooney Suzuki song stuck in your head ... it's quite infectious, especially after hearing it off that old Grand Vitara Sports SUV commercial for about a billion times. The game comes out Winter 2008.

[Thanks Ryan!]

OH crap! Well it's better than that chocolate rain song....oh CRAP!

Honestly, the "Feel the rain on your skin" song gets on my nerves even more.

Dear EA Sports BIG,
This is what SSX used to look like when it was enjoyable to play. Please make a note of it.

I've never skated nor snowboarded in my life, but I love those types of games. Looks good!

Finally a new snowboarding game with actual snowboarders!!! Took long enough for someone to come up with a new snowboard. I'm glad it's Shaun White, he's freakin' awesome!

LOL at it saying "Available Winter 2008".

Dont'cha mean -2009- there Ubi? (seeing as how winter 2008 is, you know, over and all)

KFBradley @ May 28th 2008 9:29PM

Uh, yea. Winter starts at the END of the year there smart guy.

Kspraydad @ May 28th 2008 10:22PM

Winter STARTS with the SOLSTICE which is in December...thus Winter 2008 is correct.

(Laughs at you for being a complete idiot). Haha, go on and eat your words now.

This will have to tide me over until the true successor to SSX3 comes out.

SSX On Tour and SSX Wii were both produced and directed by someone different than the previous SSX titles (namely, SSX3).

I will go out on a limb here and say that SSX3 was one of the, if not *the* most polished videogame I've ever played.

* Amazing soundtrack
* Complete mountain track streaming
* Flawless framerate
* Jaw-dropping amount of extras
* Hilarious DJ (what? I thought he was kinda funny...)
* Great environments

Back to SSX3 for now...

Harry @ May 29th 2008 3:00AM

Hear, hear - SSX3 was pretty much a perfect video game. When I think of my favorite games of all time, it doesn't immediately come to mind like some more flashier titles might, but it really is up there for me.

Which made On Tour and Blur all more disappointing. I just hope they are reserving the "SSX4" nomenclature for a true successor.

FreshJulius @ May 29th 2008 9:04AM

I second [third?] that sentiment!

Though I really appreciated the addition of skiers to SSX with On Tour... we're not all knuckle-draggers out there!

hai2u @ May 29th 2008 12:44AM

Gahhhhhh... First Tony Hawk gets a game, now Shaun White. At least the f**king king, Danny Way sort of got a game (skate). Maybe Terje or Peter Line or someone good at something other than winning comps will get a snowboarding game eventually.

Mike @ May 29th 2008 1:21AM

@hai2u

Don't forget about Matt Hoffman, Dave Mirra, Kelly Slater...etc. This is nothing new.

Rick @ May 29th 2008 11:56AM

SSX all the way. No snowboarding game will ever make me change my ways. If only the developers would get their asses in gear and make another one...very soon! OR even a High Definition version of the greatest tracks of the first three titles, a la wipeout HD.

*Waits*

Ikuru @ May 29th 2008 11:58AM

SSX3 was the game that made me get back in to gaming after years and years of non gaming! Lets face it that Game is PERFECT! Alegra was the shit... I wish they come close to that this winter when there is a new ssx comming out but I doubt it, next gen my ass...

This shaun shmite game looks well ok, like another Amped or whatever... zzzz... Might be like sk8 though and then its good. lets see.

money_mike_preme @ May 29th 2008 4:16AM

Matt hoffman was like the tony hawk game for bmx tho...i neva played kellys game(surfing right?) Hopefully this ones more like skate (ie. dont need to push triangle to grind for miles vs. i actually gotta line up the grind and land it). Danny Ways skate vids are insane (i luv how he spins on a skate board like forever...who else does that?....no one!)

Perhaps this will encourage EA to break out SSX4 for the PS360. 60fps and 720p please! (on both consoles EA!!!). Perhaps they could stuff some good high def snowboarding videos on the blu-ray for the PS3 version =)

DG @ May 29th 2008 9:30AM

I have to agree with everyone who's wanting a new SSX. Ya know one the doesn't have recycled areas from earlier games? I'm looking forward to SWSB too. SSX is great but i'd love a snowboarding game with a little more realism, sorta like skate was for skateboarding games.
