Cool Boarders Burrrn!

While this game certainly looked pretty enough at this year's E3, it controlled like crap. Now that we've gotten our hands on a tidied-up ready-to go-version of Cool Boarders Burrrn for the Dreamcast, we've had the pleasure of discovering the improvements.

While the graphics still swim along at a smooth 60fps, the analog or digital control no longer feels as if you're trying to steer a tree. "Nice and easy" is the best way to put it, while making the controls in 1080 Snowboarding seems unforgiving by comparison. The courses are long, and the half-pipe is huge, in both length and height. Each character has two selectable uniforms with a good number of courses. Although we've only had a chance to give it a quick spin, here are some screens to gaze at while we prepare the full-on review.
