I bought the game about 6 months after it was released and I had over 3000 hours in that game before I stopped playing a few years back.

The first 1200+ hours was in Snowday alone, and I doubt I'll ever have as much fun in a video game than I did in that mode. I started to play all the modes plus the steam workshop mods (for hundreds of hours) just to get better car control to play Snowday.
Unfortunately at the end it was all competitive and it had started to be more of a chore than fun but I stand by those first thousands of hours at the most fun I've ever had.

Hell, most of the time even the losing part of Snowday was enjoyable when playing against and with the right people.

Yeah i'll remember the good times fondly for sure. In its peak it was a great time and I don't regret the time spent one bit.

The puck added a fun dimension, being able to fairly effortlessly run it up walls or onto the roof (compared to the ball), and the wonderful semi-glitchy physics of pinch hits on the flat surface of a puck. Nothing like pinch-hitting it against another player's vehicle and watching the puck rocket unstoppably across into the goal. "Calculated".
