ack, wrong button.

I loved the original myself. but this one just doesnt seem like it anymore. nor does it have the old pazaz.

getting burned too many times on nintendo hoping thier fans will base thier buys off previous games in the series rather then on the game itself. aside from Mario kart. many of thier game updates havnt been too great of updates

I have the game! I ordered it at a shop, but it took too long so I bought it at another one!
I haven't played it yet, only read the manual.

Edit: I played it, it's good. It's fast, REALLY FAST!!! :eek: The controller just shakes in your hand when you're on top-speed... hehe

Are the 1080s easier to pull off now? Is it easier to land tricks? How is the course desing?

Although I haven't pulled of a 1080, it's way easier. You just hold R and press your stick to a side. Rotating the sticks makes you rotate faster.
The tracks are very good. Dodging trees, taking sharp turns, boarding over ice, it's all there. Sometimes it's a bit hard to find the road though, cause sometimes you have to break through fences and stuff. But once you know it, the tracks are great.
The game is pretty easy though... it's just like in 1080, you have 3 'cups': easy, normal and hard. You can't play the first one on hard, like in MK. But slalom mode and stuff adds a lot of replay! Plus 4-player!

Edit: I can't compare it too SSX3.

Has anyone played SSX3? How do the two games compare?
