hey i know everyone thinks this has been beaten to death but I think that if we got enough names then we could show them that newschool is a force to be reckoned with, and as big an influence as snowboarding is percieved to be. So anyway, I know a guy who is fairly senior management at EA UK, (dad's friend) and when I spoke to him about it he said it was on the cards, but they didnt have enough evidence of consumer interest- well here's your chance to have your say. I will send this to him when its done...

just put your name and if you want where you ski if you would buy an amped 2 type skiing game

if a gaming company doesnt want to make a ski game because they dont think enough people will buy it, they should make a ski/snowboard game first, then if enough copies sell, make a ski game

k, if you get a real petition this will work, you must...

advertise the actual link on the web besides in this thread. ie...put it on freeskiing.com
have harvey make a link to it on the main NEWS page... make it so people will see it...

i signed we have 43 sigs... that is about 2% of what we need... and that is if EA Sports is feeling generous...

i'll sign it and id buy the game
but maan some ppl are way too worried about video games, go ski and if its summer go do something else cool ... and when you absolutely have to play a video game ohwell be content with football or hey snowboarding or anything like that. skiing game would be fun and all definetly and i think alot of ppl would buy it but to start a petition and go to ea games managers and all that stuff i wouldnt think is worth it
my opinion

i concur with fulltiltrocker. go ski and dont worry about it. a game would be cool but it is not nearly as cool as the real thing. maybe a game would hold back progression of the sport because people will just sit inside and play the game instead of going out and skiing!

How about emailing Harvey politely and askign him to run an article about this on the front page, or set up his own online petition. There is no way this whole concept will work as a thread.

My cousin works for EA sports. He has some leverage there too, so if you guys are serious about this I could help you out

Get some sour cream and onion chips with some dip, man, some beef jerky, some peanut butter. Get some Haagen-Das ice cream bars, a whole lot, make sure chocolate, gotta have chocolate, man. Some popcorn, red popcorn, graham crackers, graham crackers with marshmallows, the little marshmallows and little chocolate bars and we can make smores, man. Also, celery, grape jelly, Captain Crunch with the little Crunch berries, pizzas. We need two big pizzas, man, everything on 'em, with water, whole lotta water, and Funyons

EA made Amped 2, right? The same company who did Amped should do a ski game. They could use the same engine I'm sure and just make the necessary modifications - it wouldn't be a totally new project.
