About The Game
1080°: Avalanche brings its unique tradition of authentic 3-D snowboarding action to NINTENDO GAMECUBE. Game play satisfaction snowballs as players master snowboarding physics and an all-new trick system. Favorite boarders, such as the well-balanced Kensuke, the technical master Rob or the incredibly fast Dion, charge jumps, grab huge air and complete twisted combos. Watch out though, a potentially impressive stunt could lead to a board-breaking disaster.
Features:
- Tackle multiple game play modes including match race, time attack, trick attack, contest, and training mode, which includes a half-pipe for major stunts.
- Navigate surprise avalanches, rock-slides and varying weather conditions that affect boarding and may open unseen paths.
- Nail unreal trick combos or lay it on the line and rage down the mountain.
- Experience smooth controls that simulate the feeling of gliding across fresh mountain-top powder.
