Being a hardcore fan since it came out I must say this game really is something special and has a special place in my heart. I remember playing it in the winter with my friends over and we would have an awesome time. We would compete with eachother when the highscores were online. We were in the TOP 10 *literally*. The visuals are still great and it works fine on newer machines and OS's. Been spamming the forums for years now hoping it would get released. In 2010 I even got this game to be supported on Xfire. Bought the original disc and now I own it on steam too. When the devs reached out to me saying it got released today I was stoaked. It has its' flaws and bugs but it works really good on basically any decent machine out there. I don't want to spoil any of the game but the main goal is to complete challenges and do freerides. It's simple but very fun. Just try it out for yourself. The price is not that high. The only thing that needs fixing is the online multiplayer *It does not connect to the central server thus making it only playable thru LAN with Hamachi/ Tunngle..." and the online highscores. That was awesome and it brought so much more to the game and I really hope the great devs over in Austria can get this sorted^^ GET IT WHILE IT's HOT LADS!;)

FreakOut: Extreme Freeride is one of my favorite childhood games. I still remember the day I received this game from my uncle as a birthday present. The version I received was translated to polish by CD Projekt. The laptop I had at the moment wasn't all that powerful to run the game smoothly, but it was still fun. The glittering snow and the skier's trail left on it were really beautiful. It felt especially good to play after getting back home from sled rides during winter, right after drinking some hot cocoa, of course ;P Some years later I got to run the game on a more powerful hardware and I was amazed to see it run smooth as the butter with all graphical options on. That upgrade allowed me to do more advanced stunts since what I've seen on the previous machine was more of a Powerpoint slideshow than a gameplay in comparison. Learning how to mix flips with rolls made the game even more enjoyable. I also enjoyed the game's soundtrack. The game has split-screen, LAN and Internet multiplayer, but unfortunately I never got to play it online. With all that said, I'd love to see this game available on GOG one day and with it, gain more players and potentially, fans.
