The olympics have inspired me to action! So...ever played a decent Snowboard sim?

[Frodolives]

I've done some searching, and of course it's no secret that most board games are for consoles, but surely there's no reason I can't find a fun one for pc.

I've turned up a few titles in various searches, but I'm probably missing something. Thanks!

er...wait...
the olympics inspired you to play a snowboard sim instead of actually snowboarding? lol

1080 snowboarding, and some game for the PSone are the only ones I have played. Pretty fun tho.

The greatest journey begins with a single step!

actually snowboarding>snowboard sim

Well that's helpful

Best I've played on a PC was probably Coolboarders 4 via Bleem! PS1 emulator. Amped 2 is a sweet game but it's for the Xbox.

Thanks Clam and Cawchy. Looks as though I may have to get another console one of these days, hehe.

No snowboarding, but Accolade's Winter Games is worth a shot if you don't mind (very) old games.

I actually noticed that one in a search. I play quite a few older games, it's a pity more of them don't turn up as jewel case bargains at retailers.

If I happened upon a copy of that for a few bucks I'd certainly mess with it, but what do we find at Walmart? Jewel case "Aquarium sim #4000655"

Snowboard sim price < cost of flying to where there is snow and buying a snowboard.

I play Amped 2 on Xbox. You get to go to Bear Mtn, Breckenridge, Brighton, etc

The only good snowboard games I have played were some for the PSOne. Particularly the Coolboarders series. I have the first Amped for the Xbox and I don't really like it at all.

I know of no good ones for PC, sorry. However, you could buy the game and use a PSOne emulator. There is no guarantee it will work properly though. I've had a few games that I would backup and they wouldn't play right using an emulator, but they would work flawlessly in my modded PSOne.

its not the kinda thing that really translates. with driving u got steering wheels, joysticks for flight. boarding in videogames isnt a sim

I enjoyed a demo of a ame called "Supreme Snowboarding" for PC but it is somewhat old noe (came out 1999) http://www.housemarque.com/supreme.htm
It does have nice graphics and I really enjoyed playing it and I whish I had bought the full version at the time; it's hard to find now. But it is definately the bet snowboarding game for PC that I have ever seen!
