I liked it, a lot. People pissed on it because it came after SSX3, and didn't do a good job of ripping it off. SSX3 is very feature-heavy, loads of unlockables (to my understanding), and is more trick-centric ala Tony Hawk. 1080:A is pretty much the snowboarding equivalent to Wave Race. You can do tricks, but they only amount to giving you speed boosts during the races. It's just a nice, fast, arcadey racer. Probably not worth $50 in the face of SSX3, but definitely worth $20.

Well, I know it's still $49.99 at EB B&M as of this morning and afternoon.

Well, I have been wanting this game for so long that I could not resist and I got one. Crossing fingers for a non-players choice. Either way though I still want it.

thats a DAMN good deal! im thinking about getting pikmin and fzero for 27!

well lets go for the hat trick!!

this game is awesome (1080) i picked it up last weekend and its a really fun snowboarding game in the vein of the classic coolboarders games (1+2)

this game iss nothing like ssx 3. i find it the exact opposite, so if you dont like ssx, you might want to give this a shot

Back to $49.99!

Umm... this is odd, but it's back again.

I'm trying so hard to resist.

I took the printed out EB website ad to CC and pricematched for $16.99. The guy at the counter said he was going to check on the internet because it was odd that the new price was less than the preplayed price, but was very polite and almost apologetic about it.

Anyway, walked out the door with 1080 Avalanche for $16.99. BTW, it is not a universal price drop...yet.
