Well, I wouldnt even attempt to argue that SSX3 is a more realistic snowboarder.

1080's physics are much better and realistic, mostly because the whole aim for SSX is to be arcadey and unrealistic.

But there is no reason you cant own both, 1080 is a Racing game with a trick mode, and SSX3 is a trick game (and I think it has racing in it).

you know that SSX3's physics are much less realisitc, but you've obviously never played it because you don't know whether or not there's a racing mode?

I have only played it at a friends house. I cant afford the game right now. We didnt play much. He showed me what appeared to be a lot of free roaming.

Does SSX3 have 4 player mode?

Hey, I HAVE to get 1080 to get the Zelda collectors disc.

no 4 player mode. but i'd give up 4 player mode in a heart beat for online mode.

Then again, i wouldnt go near a 4 player mode on a game like that with a 10foot pole. (unless it was on a BIG screen, HD TV)

PC fanboys don't use split screen, right Null? Online or nothing, that's what they always say . Just kidding. Snowboard games, or any game that isn't in first person, doesn't look right in 4 split screens. The detail and the clarity of the environment gets shot, or the frame rate gets low.

different, yes and no.

one reason. console split screens have framerate and detail drops in split screen. Games like SSX, whiz by you so fast its pretty damn annoying with a split screen.

but yes. basically its onlin or nothing. I'll play a multiplayer that shares a screen, aka a fighter or a sports game. RARELY any that split it.

SSX 3 i play online. its about a million times better then playing with a split screen.

Correction stu. SSX online is where its at. get a lot more of a challenge (depending on who you play) then you will in single player.
