"Amped: Freestyle Snowboarding is an Xbox exclusive snowboarding video game.

The success of Amped was solidified by the successful launch of the sequels, Amped 2 and Amped 3. Utilizing the Xbox's built-in hard drive, Amped allowed for entire mountains to be loaded simultaneously, permitting completely free-style runs modelled on real resorts, rather than the linear and comical courses of other snowboarding titles. The game also contains snowmen which you must strike down in order to advance your career mode character's explore options. Before its release, the game was met with derision from some due to Microsoft's marketing department Photoshopping lens flares onto what were supposedly actual game screenshots. Microsoft claimed they were unintentionally passed off as screenshots of the actual game. The game is also well known for helping to launch the career of pop punk band Yellowcard due to the soundtrack in the game."@en . . . . . . . . . . . . "2001-11-20"^^ . "ESRB: Everyone"@en .
