Snow, Surf, Motocross. I like this game, but of they keep getting stupid, I'm out.

This game is going for $40 new already at Lamestop.

Must not be selling well.

Did around 500k between the two versions last I saw.

I finally have time to put into this and, while the regular races are good fun, I'm really surprised by how obnoxious the deadly descents are. I read people complaining about them in this thread but even so, I'm surprised what a chore they turned out to be.

I like the avalanche one. The cold ones can be fun too, makes you really work on finding the right lines (I cant get the cheev for doing a cold run without a suit, get about 65%)

I'm just sad that I've beaten all of the scores on my friends list.

This Cold deadly descent achievement is by far the most difficult. You need to equip a really good wing suit and about halfway down and near the end, you need to fly as high and as long as possible. The neat thing is that the game actually puts the lighting model to use as a mechanic -- if you get high enough that you would actually have the sun directly hitting you, your body temperature will stop going down.

Thanks for the tip Dipstick, I was having issues with that one as well. I can't check your Live name from my phone but if you're. Not on my list you could add me and I'll throw down against your scores
