***Why hasn't EA/Black Box made a Snowboarding game with Skate engine?***
This topic is locked from further discussion.
I think that is a great idea! I love the Skate series and I love snowboarding games so it would be a great way for EA and Black Box to switch it up a bit. I also think the game would be quite good since Black Box did such a good job right out of the gate with Skate. I still have Amped 2 because it's such a good snowboarding game and I would love to see a snowboarding game similar to that come out and Black Box and their Skate engine would seem like a great combo to take that on.
Yeah. I also didnt realize that Black Box is now EA Canada. Still though, they obviously have the rights to the platform and engine. The only thing that sucks is that EA Games is too big of a company to care about us. Its all about the dime in thier pocket not about what people want so who knows. I do want to write a formal letter to them and just get an answer as to why this isnt something theyve taken on, because it would make more money for them than Skate did.I think that is a great idea!

When i eventually get a 360 i was looking forward to Amped 3, always wanted a good snowboarding game too.X360PS3AMD05Yeah Amped 3 was terrible. Amped 2 is the only reason I still have the original XBOX so that on those days where im craving a legit Snowboarding game I at least have something!

I doubt it skating games have always seemed more popular then snowboarding gamesI think that is a great idea!

Have you played Stoked? If you enjoy Amped 2, then you'll probably like Stoked. It's a very fun snowboarding game.

I doubt it skating games have always seemed more popular then snowboarding games Yeah I said the sport in general, not the games. The games have always been more popular because look at the work and marketing put into Tony Hawk and Skate and they have always just been better. Period you know?

Yes Ive beat it. But what people are missing my point. Stoked was all about Big Air back country booters. Which dont get me wrong I love. But it only went so far. I want all park features because the game would never get old like Skate with Create a park. I could go forever! :DEA Canada is making the next SSX game, and they've said Trials HD has been an influence in making it.
