Ubisoft announced the development of Shaun White Snowboarding today, a title they say is “destined to break all former action sports video game notions and redefine the action sports genre.”

That’s quite a promise!

Scheduled for release this winter, Shaun White Snowboarding will rock the Xbox 360, PS3, PC, and the Nintendo Wii.

Powered by the award-winning Assassin’s Creed engine for Xbox 360 and the PS3 system, Shaun White Snowboarding is being developed from the ground up for the Wii system, taking full advantage of the Wii Balance Board accessory and featuring its own unique storyline and adventure with Shaun White.

The videogame version of the Score internationals Baja 1000 desert race promises to give gamers a chance to participate in blistering, sun-drenched endurance races without ever leaving their climate-controlled living rooms.

According to Activision, the game features:

Over 90 vehicles across multiple classes… including trophy trucks, class I, motorcycles, ATVs and more – the game challenges players to not only be first across the finish line, but also keep their machine intact! Hyper-realistic dirt and damage modeling in the game means players need to be crazy enough to take chances, but not so reckless that their vehicle is destroyed before the race is over.

Developed by Left Field Productions, the game will be available this fall for the PlayStation 2, Playstation 3 , Xbox 360, Wii and PC. There’s a single, lonely screenshot over on G4tv.

ps3 UK retailers slash Rock Band price by £40UK retailers slash Rock Band price by £40

Retailers in the UK are not adhering to the suggested retail price for the Euro Rock Band kit and are selling the whole thing for 40 quid cheaper than it was supposed to. The game disc alone costs a staggering £50 while the instrument set originally tacked on an extra £130. Listening to customer disapproval of such inflated prices, places like Play have dropped the price for the disc down to £39.99 and the instrument set down to £99.99. That’s a huge difference with all things considered.

Now, before you get all excited, just remember the PS3 version is yet to come out in Europe and doesn’t even have a solid date — this new pricing scheme is related to the Xbox 360 edition that came out last Friday. However, it should follow logically that the PS3 version, when it gets a release date, would see a similar discount. At least, we’re hoping so for the sake of our UK readers.
