Harnessing the power of the PSP, Shaun White Snowboarding features impressive visuals with a huge outdoor world and sweeping vistas, and visual effects such as mist coming off the mountain and real-time shadows. The game offers five different mountains, each of which has a variety of slopes, so players won't run out of places to ride very quickly. And because of the graphical detail, you'll be able to see all the smallest details essential to the game, such as thin rails that you'll be grinding on. Character Building game play
Shaun White Snowboarding focuses on mastering four different disciplines of snowboarding: speed, tricks, grinding, and carving. When you start the game, you create a character and by mastering the disciplines and acquiring stickers, and you can improve your character in categories such as balance and speed. Participate in Different Challenges
Shaun White Snowboarding offers different challenges, each needing a different skill set to win. One challenge is a race down the mountain with other CPU riders, another is tackling a course set up for tricks where you can jump, ride on rails, and perform a whole set of different tricks to get a high score. If you're sick of the snow, practice grinding on rails and tree trunks without ever touching the ground. And you can also compete in carving events, performing sharp carves by holding down the trigger button and maintaining control of your character. As you win challenges, you unlock courses and get more stickers that improve your characters skills. Ride Down a Mountain With Your Friends
Shaun White Snowboarding features multiplayer modes, so you can ride the slope together with your friends, as either a friend or as a competitor in a speed run down to the bottom. You can also trade the stickers that you've accumulated in your game with other players.
