            Hard start, fun in between, but like any game, gets old.

            Cool Boarders 3 is more advanced than Cool Boarders 1 or 2.  It is the best of snowboarding games out there although this game is particularly more difficult to ascertain a hold on it.  It's tricks are very elaborate  but the speed of the game and the difficulty of the tricks make it a hard  game to master.  Going to the learning section on the game is probably the  best tecnique before trying to master the halfpipe or even the regular  arcade.  =)  Is that any help?

            Cool Boarders 3 is a great snowboarding game. As soon as I began to play it, I loved it much more than Cool Boarders 2. This game has awesome graphics of the snowboarders while they are on the course. Also some of the  backgrounds are flat-out amazing but the trees and stumps could've been a  lot better. This game uses fast realistic-style Snowboarding for enough fun  to last a while. This game also includes tons of awesome new tricks. Also  the number of different modes is great but when you play angainst the CPU  the game is just plain easy. I give it 4 out of 5 so it is still a very  cool game. I haven't played Cool Boarders 4 but I can only imagine what EA  has done this time...

            Cool Boarders is the best out there. Why? Reasons.
1) It has the best graphics of all of them COMBINED 2) Best boards 3) Best players 4) Best sounds 5) Best scenery
It's definetly worth getting! And I can't wait to play Cool Boarders 4.

            Okay, I have read one too many reviews saying that Coolboaders 2 was the better. When I played Coolboarders 2 for the first time, I thought, "what were they thinking?" I almost didn't rent Coolboarders 3,  but I noticed a 989 logo. So I rented it, and fell in loce immediatly. I  took the game back and bought it from the store.

            I have to admit I loved the first one; however' the second and third were not worth renting. Cool Borders 4 tops them all. The fourth in the series allows a lot of freedom with tricks. The only down side is that once you  master it in a week or so you get bored with it.
        
            
Coolboarders 3 ROCKS!

            Overall the game appears to be slick and a great addition to the series.  It does have newer graphics and much better animae however it fails to deliver the excitment and challenges that Cool Boarders 2 provided.  In  addition there is no real system of moving through a competition.  Head to  head is not near the excitement of C2.
I recommend renting it at  Blockbusters rather than buying. One session and it WILL be returned.
        
            
Enough fun to last about 3 months

            This is an Ok game, but it could be much better. There is only one skill level, and it is pretty easy.Tournament mode is sort of hard, the first time, but altogether, it is easy. I beat all the tournaments in 3 months, and then the game got boring. Graphics and sounds were pretty good, but if you want a game that has more than that, I would suggest a different game.
        
            
A good game for a good price.

            Ah yes, the much anticipated sequal of Cool Boarders 1&2. For starters I want to say that this game is great! It has good handling,plenty of  boards and the characters are good. A couple bad things are that when you  are playing split screen mode and a player crashes, it slows you down and  gameplay becomes choppy. The other thing is that some of the graphics arent  that good. But other than that, this game is a classic! Like a said, a good  game, for a good price.
