New snowboarding game

heres what ign says about it:

Shaun White Snowboarding

Developer: Ubisoft Montreal

Publisher: Ubisoft

Release Date: November 16th

Genre: Extreme Sports

What to Expect: EA Vancouver, you have only yourselves to blame.

Those of us still enamored with the SSX franchise have had to wait

years for a proper snowboarding game to give us reason to ditch the PS2

backcountry, but given the kind of scope and scale that Ubisoft

Montreal is seeking to provide with Shaun White Snowboarding, we may

finally have good reason to move to a different set of peaks.

It's not just that there's a whole mountain to ride

around on -- that much has been done before -- it's that you can do it

with friends. All the time. Get off your board, go explore, and if/when

the urge to race to the bottom or enter a trick competition solo

strikes, both (and more) can be done before seamlessly dropping back

onto the ultra-populated mountain. Built off the unlikely skeleton of

the Assassin's Creed engine, Shaun White Snowboarding certainly has the

ingredients to help slake our thirst for all things snowboarding...

even if we're probably not going to be disconnecting from our boards

and break dancing while hitting huge jump... at least not for a while.

 
I was reading about this the other day and things don't look good for skiing. Sounds like the controls are snowboard specific so I think we're out of luck..... it should still be pretty cool though.
