I've read that 1080 is more simulation than the "arcadey" SSX3, and as I want it for the races as well as tricks just wondered which you thought was best.

Sad to read that the Cube version has some tricks missing due to the controllers "lack of buttons"

Opinions please, which one shall I buy tonight ????

Gonna look and see which has the most tracks

I haven't played SSX3, but 1080 rules. It really is amazing, and I was utterly shocked with how good it is. But it. NOW.

Definetly SSX 3, the music added to the game include some songs that i really like & Enjoy, plus Gameplay is great with the attributes, and the graphics, not to mention the characters and radio presenter. I definetly find 1080 a waste of my life compared to SSX 3.

(Although that is actually the reason there aren't all the moves, it's one or two buttons short)

glad I got 1080 in the end, find it much better than the PS2 version of SSX3 my brother has. More interested in racing than tricks and 1080 lets you save ghosts :)

Your saying SSX3 is rubbish cos they removed one button for the GC version!?! 8|

When in SSX3 does that really make an ounce of difference? When you leap into the air, and press a mirage of buttons, the character just goes into a spaz attack, spinning/flipping/twisting all over the place. It's not that you can really just sit back and have a good watch of some interesting moves. So frankly I don't see one button making that much of a difference!

Or the GC controller doesn't have enough buttons

Anyway, I've got it for the X-box so it doesn't matter

Still, I can't find that much Replay Value in 1080

Once you find the missile board, it's almost impossible for anyone to beat yer

I own both, got SSX3 day of release and played it to death. Tiss a very good game.

Got 1080 for Xmas and think that it is FANTASTIC!

SSX3 is a really good snowboarding game, but it is a really arcadey over the top game. Tricks are crazy and impossible in real life. You can jump a million miles into the air off most things. It has LOTS of challenges that will keep you entertained for hours.

1080 though. Tracks are smaller, but they are much more detailed and realistic/interesting. It is the true snowboard racer of the two games. If you like your snowboarding games to be reasonably realistic and more true to life get 1080. People say it's short, but it has a much greater replay value than SSX3.

Get 1080!
