Fun for everyone

You don't have to be a snowboarding fan to like this game. Its fun performing tricks, and the game is not easily won (in two days I completed 10% of the tasks). Here's a list of why I did and didn't like this game:

Pros:
*tricks are easy to learn
*you can push pause to access a list of tricks and how to perform them
*there are all sorts of different tasks to keep you busy
*lots of different characters to try
*good camera angles

Cons:
*playing with friends gets a little dull after a while (there are 3 types of head to head matches)
*it takes a long time to add up enough points to really get good equipment add-ons

Standard Snowboarding with an attempted plot

Dark Summit could be considered a decent snowboarding game. There's an attempt to formulate a plot through missions you have to complete, but most of the missions are nonsensical objectives. Graphics wise the game is good, sporting excellent animations and good detail. Play control is smooth as well as simple. The tricks are very easy to pull off in this game. Music and sound are substandard though. The music mostly sounds like some sort of horrible techno blend. Another problem comes in the game design. Though some of the game can be fun, other parts can just be moronic. The game is alright, but not something that will set a gaming standard.

Not Much to Offer for This Generation of Game

Dark Summit really has little to offer since it is a cross between a platformer and a sports game it typiclaly lacks at both. Befor purchasing this game know that SSX tricky has better graphics, sound and gameplay as well as THPS 3 for that matter and genre. This game really seems like somthing that could have been released on the PS One a couple years ago and been great but for todays generation of games it really lacks a physics system feel and overall level of fun. Not Recommended, possible rental.

Bad Game

This game is horrible. There is no real object to the game. The missions are no fun and they are pointless. THis was supposed to be a snowboarding game, right? It's basically running from the cops while on a snowboard. 2 stars.

...eh

Hi! my name is Dark Summit and I am a mediocre game. I want you to buy me if you already own all the good games for GameCube and have no other choice. Actually, what do you think you're doing? Go play SSX Tricky... I'm not worth [the money]!

4 and a half actually!

This game is awesome. Every thing in the game is great. Almost every trick is easy to pull off which is a lot better than some action sports games. The missions start out fairly simple, like do all 9 grabs. Others are hard, like the infiltrate the hq. I don't know how far that is in the game, and I've only had it for 14 hours. This is a must have.
