The computer has revolutionized all things in this planet. No one ever knew that one could snowboard or even play soccer on a computer, but through technology and specifically, the invention of the computer, it is now possible to play the games on a PC, and even online. The same enjoyment felt while on real snow is experienced while playing snowboarding games.

Further development in technology has made it possible for these games to be played even on iOS and android phones. This means that one can play them from anywhere; without necessarily having to look for a physical ground to snowboard. They can be played while travelling, lying in bed, relaxing in an open field or anywhere the player finds suitable.

Most of these games are not always available. They have low and high seasons; there are too many of them during certain times of the year and very few of them during other times. Specifically, there are usually so many of them in market between the month of October and March. Many of them flooded the market in late 90s and early 2000s.

At the moment, there are many sub-genres of the genre snowboard games, all of which integrating real snowboarding skills into their operations. Among the best in this field are; SSX, SSX Tricky, SSX 3, 1080 Snowboarding, Cool Boarders, Amped 2, 1080 Avalanche, SSX on Tour, Cool Boarders 3 and Amped 3. These have been rated as top ten in this genre.

It has been common for creators of these items to come up with series of the same. For instance, whoever created SSX thought it wise to produce others that succeeded the first production. SSX led to the creation of SSX Tricky, SSX 3, and SSX on Tour among others. This was perhaps taking advantage of the thirst for more fun created by the preceding SSX. Players always want more and more adventure.

It is also common to find these games being played in pubs, hotels, arcades and restaurants. They are normally played as businesses or as ways of entertaining guests. Before technology advanced to today level, players used to operate them using coins, and they were referred to as arcade games. This type use real snowboards in place of joysticks. The passage of time has seen the transition of the games from 2D to 3 D.

The dark side is the attachment the players develop towards playing. It has been discovered that people who play it always do not want to be away from their PCs, and all they do on their computers is snowboard. They may go to the extent of neglecting their jobs and studies just to play on their computers.

Research has shown that children are fonder of these items as compared to adults. This might be because adults do not like playing computer plays, or are always busy doing other things, and have no time for playing. This conclusion was made after finding out that more children play them more than adults do which is so because children have more free time.
