Coming off the smashing success of the original ESPN WINTER X-GAMES: Snowboarding, this follow-up packs a whole lot of snowy fun into one glorious package. Such stalwarts as Peter Line, Todd Richards, and Tina Basich are among the 15 top-level pros out to carve up the slopes, and there are four big events in which to compete: Slopestyle, Halfpipe, Big Air, and Boardercross. The latter competition is the newest addition to the list, setting you up in a grueling six-way downhill showdown. The 20 new courses included range from locales like the Alps, Scandinavia, and Japan, to North American settings like Colorado, Alaska, and Canada. A new system allows you to link tricks together resulting in the most amazing in-air action imaginable and state-of-the-art replays let you view your best moments from any angle. Add extensive statistics and awesome pre- and post-event coverage into the mix, and you’ve got an all-out shrine to the vastly popular outdoor sport.
