It deserves teh 70% it got in most reviews.
Actually, no it doesn't.
It's absolutely merdé

NGC ALWAYS rate Nintendo Series stuff (Excluding Starfox Adventures, but they were just sour about Rare leaving) with scores that are ALWAYS 90+
That's the only reason it got that high, as, quite frankly, I've played it for a couple of hours, and I'm bored of it.

Everyone has the right to their own opinion, I personally really like it, I think it depends what your after from the game, I have only attempted Tricks once and will never do again, however if you bought it for racing/time trials or the gates challenge I can't see how your disappointed.

It may be a little short but I look for quality and 1080 sure has it.

I would have preferred something a lot less SSX and more 1080 Snowboarding - instead Nintendo should have used the name: Twisted Edge Snowboarding 2.

1080 is the most "cool" Nintendo game ever made...

Slamming down a mountain, listening to Finger Eleven whilst knocking down your opponent with an avalanche close at your tail....

BEAUTIFUL!

I'll admit that I, too, didn't find 1080: Avalanche as great as I was expecting it to be, at first. I was beginning to tire of it early on, just because "Easy" mode was so-damn... EASY!

But, like with all games, you do need to give this one more time. I played through the Hard mode, got to the last race, and, with that avalanche, realised just how great this game really is! :)


But, if, after that, you still don't like it, I suggest you go and play SSX, instead. :P
