I'll preface this review by saying this: I'm not an extremely articulate person and I very rarely go out of my way to reccommend games to people, so the fact that I chose this game as my first Steam review ever should speak to the fact that it's a really enjoyable experience.

It truly is the EA Skate of snowboarding. If you were a fan of the Skate series, and are itching for a fix of that unique Skate feel, this is the game for you (even if you aren't a huge snowboarder). Infinite Air provides you with the same mindless joy that came from Skate. You can sit for hours just messing around at the same spot and still have fun. The only thing that bums me out is the fact that there isn't really an interesting base/home mountain, but rather a series of different spots connected to challenges and community-made maps. A lot of these maps are great, however, the feel of exploring an interesting environment (like the mountains in Steep) would be a great addition to this game and would really help flesh out and give Infinite Air that 'finished' feel.

In the end, the experiences you get from Steep and Infinite Air are completely different, which is natural since they are very different games in what they intend to offer the player. Infinite Air is, first and foremost, a more realistic snowboard 'simulator', while Steep is more of an 'extreme/go fast' kind of game that has snowboarding in it.

As someone who LOVED the Skate trilogy, this game really is amazing (even if you aren't a snowboarder), and now that the game is only $30, there's no reason you shouldn't pick it up.
