If you want to look your best whilst careering down the slopes in Shaun White's Snowboarding then you may be pleased to hear that Ubisoft has launched a "Glamour" pack, which is available to download immediately.
For USD 4.99 (EUR 4.99) you can grab yourself the following swag:
• 7 Pants
• 7 Coats
• 4 Tuques
• 4 Gloves
• 4 Boots
• 4 Goggles
• 14 Snowboards
• 2 Bindings
• 3 Backpacks
Powered by the Assassin's Creed engine, Shaun White Snowboarding launched in November and was Ubisoft's first real attempt at creating an extreme sport's game. It showed glimpses of promise for future iterations of the series, with some nice visuals and enticing open-ended environment, but received largely average reviews across the board, criticized mainly for its poor handling mechanics and in-game glitches. Sounds like a new patch would have been more welcome than the dishing out a "Glamour" pack.

Yeah...Would've been nice to include that stuff in the original game itself, but I guess then they wouldn't get to milk n00b gamers for all they've got by waving pay-for DLC in their faces like it's a good thing. Then again, that seems to be the hot trend among developers. Make a game, take some stuff out of it. Sell the game, then sell the stuff you took out of it. Ah, the system works.

I was lucky I got the game for free alongside 7 other titles......(long story)..... so paying for the DLC wouldn't bother me all that much. But even thou the game is great and alot of fun to play I agree that there should've been more mountains and that there shouldn't be a need for DLC just yet. They should've made sure the game was jam packed and it truley gave you value for money and maybe spend a little more time on the game to sort out the little things.
But it is a fun 'in-between' game.....
