SSX3 vs Amped 2 vs 1080° Avalance

[Perfect Stu]

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)

Why the hell not? No different that going split screen with anything else.

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.

bingo.

while playing SSX3, you need to be able to see your surroundings with detail. every slope, jump, rail, etc. is hard to see in split screen. and the game moves really fast, too...so it makes it that much more difficult/awkward.

SSX3's single player is where its at.

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.

Is it just racing online or are there freestyle stuff too?

I'd get kind of tired racing with SSX 3 online. Free roam/freestyle competition is more fun for me.
