Right, I've been wondering about getting this game for a while now, but I'm not sure whether I should. I always thought I was going to end up getting 1080 and MP5, but it seems with my brother getting an XBox, that got priority and I've ended up spending my money on a couple of XBox games and Cueb controller/memory card.

I remembered I have an unclaimed GAD, though, so I'm thinking maybe I should get 1080; only problem is, is it any good? I've heard it's far too short/arcadey, and some people say that SSX 3 is much better. If it's not as good as SSX 3 I don't think there'd be much point getting it.

So I should I wait and see if I can get Live, then get an XBox title (probably Crimson Skies), leave my GAD and pre-order a decent Cube title like FF: CC when soem release dates are confirmed or go for 1080?

Cheers Ninty dudes.

Auf deutsch, I completely agree tht SSX3 is better than 1080. SSX3 is the best game of its type ever!

Kewl.

I played 1080 again today. T'was fantastic the first few times I played it, but now, it's kinda dull.

Much prefer SSX3 I do.

Then try and beat some of the times in the 1080 Times thread. That'll take some time to try and beat!

Yer, go to the 1080 Times thread, and try and beat the times there. That will give a lot more life to the game.

Competition always makes a game more interesting!

If you want a snowboarding game I would go for Amped 2 at the moment. My opinion is that it is better than 1080.

If you are now bored with games you have at the moment, then I would claim a GAD. Crimson Skies is on my list too at the moment.

But if you have a whole pile of games needing playing just now then save the GAD for another time.
