Xbox 360

2K Games put up the following 13 images of their upcoming Xbox 360 launch title, Amped 3. At least I think it looks wonderful, and I love going out on the hills (in front of the TV) and go snowboarding. But - the lack of any real Xbox Live mode is a big dissapointment.
Update: Video was already up on XY, but at least the images are new.

Thanks to simun for the tip.

13 720p images

There is no Xbox version, this IS the 360 version. Sure it doesn't have good lighting, but really that's all it's missing. Major normal mapping on the snow and the characters, in addition to a near infinite draw distance put this above any current gen game.

As for the video, it gives me a missing file error.

Although I'm blown away by the lack of any real competetive or co-op Live mode, especially with the mountains being so damned huge, I personally don't mind because I don't care for Live.

Sick and cheap. Amped 3 menu's look just like SSX on Tour. Pathetic.

looks better than xbox1, but not as good as it probably can. Ppl first impression of these next gen games will be the graphics. If these games don't scream "next gen" then alot will pass.

Let me link you guys to a HD trailer that proves beyond any doubt that this couldn't be done on current gen hardware. It's still sort of underwhelming, but it's definitely a nice and sharp looking game.

It's pretty huge but easily the best way to experience the game until it's in people's hands.

You know what Lebato? Maybe somewhere, some day, someone will refer to a game in something other than graphical terms? He might even think it looks wonderful from a gameplay standpoint. HE MAY NOT EVEN MEAN IT'S VISUALLY THE MOST MIND BLOWING AND LIFE ALTERING GAME EVER, just that it looks like a lot of fun.

I know, OMG! It's a crazy thought.. Gameplay!? I mean that's so exotic and new and bold.. Surely a game's graphics can't just be well above Xbox for someone to like it? Certainly that is the signs of madness at work! IT HURTS MY BRAIN TO THINK IT!

I could go on but I won't.

That's ok, you don't have to go on. You are right.

But that was more of a joke, nothing else. And when anyone says it looks wonderful, how am I supposed to know what he's talking about? Regardless, it was simply a joke, don't take it serious--that includes you manager.
