Glamourized SW Snowboarding DLC now available

"The Flying Tomato" himself has released a new set of downloadable content for his self titled Shaun White Snowboarding game, bringing with it new jackets, pants, boards and other wearables. You know, so you can play dress up with your snowboarder. The 400 Microsoft point The Glamour Pack is the first and (seeing how overpriced it is) hopefully the last chuck of game DLC. Now go carve those mountains.

I love snowboarding games. I loved Cool Borders and I think I'm one of the few who actually went through and beat Amped 3. Has anyone played this one though? I'm wondering if it's worth it.

Also, X3F why don't you guys show a little more professionalism? There's no need to hope for no more DLC for a game just because you obviously don't play it. We all know you guys kiss so much gears of war butt that they could release 1 map for 1200 MS points and you wouldn't dare call it overpriced.

I've heard kind of average buzz about the game. Not great, but if you love the genre you might like it.
Supposedly the Wii version is better gameplay wise.

Ah, don't hate... this is just Dustin's version of editorializing. ;)

Actually, they're not hoping for no more dlc to be released for it because they don't play the game... it's because the game got bad reviews across the board... >.>
I bought the game and everybody i played with online told me that the "story" mode sucked (finding coins?? then finding MOAR coins???). I shortly figured this out myself. Freeroam is its strong point but it's ONLY so much fun before you actually want to do something.
I agree with x3f, there's enough outfits and boards.... game needs a remake as opposed to dlc. :/

I like that Dustin is calling this DLC overpriced but bought the GOW2 maps.

Exactly. That's what I'm saying.

oh and dont forget the fact that he basically paid 10 bucks for a gold in-game weapon for gears of war 2.....

Ron Howard's daughter I think.

Oh, I thought Carrot Top finally got off the steroids.

folks i've talked to that have this say don't waste your $ - stoked is releasing this month check reviews on that one soon
AoE @ Jan 7th 2009 5:55PM
Yes, stoked looks like a far superior snowboarding game. I was going to get Shaun White Snowboarding until I found out about Stoked.

Almost as scary a ginger as Carrot Top.

Ron Weasley has really let himself go.

too bad people can't think for themselves and actually try the game out. i personally really like it...it's not Tony Hawk style madness, it's a pretty calm, semi realistic snowboarding game. yes, you find 3 big coins in each level if you want to unlock more parts of the game, big deal. the visuals are crisp and the controls are tight. rent it.
protofunc @ Jan 8th 2009 11:04AM
Trust me, tried to rent. No rental store has it in the area. >.>
And it's 3 big coins in each level... liek 1,000,000 TIEMZ! THAT YOU ALMOST ALWAYS MISS! When you have to walk up a mount numerous times on a snowboarding game.... somehting is wrong.
themissing @ Jan 8th 2009 11:12AM
Or..you could set a checkpoint near the coins and if you miss, just warp back to it. it's amazing what reading can do.

I have tried renting this game at BlockBuster and Hollywood video...they both don't carry it so I went over to a buddy's place this past wknd and played it for about 1 1/2hrs ...make a long story short, don't get this game ...awkward controls, I wish they would make something similar to COOL BORDERS 1,2,3 or 4
