X-Play: 'Stoked' Interview

Destineer producer Tony Chiodo amps up the latest details on their upcoming snowboarding title for the Xbox 360, Stoked.

The game is "all about style." Players can ride down the slopes as a trick-happy "Hucker" or as a "Stylish" rider with more finesse and grab variations. Also, the snow effects in the game aren't just for show--they actually affect the gameplay interface as snow could pile up or even pave new paths for players to ride. To keep track on the snow level, the game also supports a five-day weather forecast.

6 Worst Game Titles of the Seventh Generation

AlienLion writes:

"As the seventh generation of consoles nears its’ mud dive, we feel the need for yet another round up, as part of our send off.

Mygamer: Stoked: Big Air Edition Review

Mygamer writes: "Stoked: Big Air Edition is a game I didn't know existed. Other than Ubisoft's Shaun White series, I thought there were no more snowboarding games being made, which was a shame since they tend to be a lot of fun, particularly the SSX series. Stoked goes in a different direction, separate from the arcade feel from the SSX series or the Extreme Games fame set up that Shaun White offers. Not unlike EA's successful Skate franchise, Stoked is all about making a name for yourself the old fashioned way. Forgoing huge competitions, Stoked is all about the sport."
