This game is good if you're getting it for your 10 year old son who recently got a nintendo64 and thinks its still the hottest thing. It is actually a really good game if the only thing you've played was sega or super nintendo. It has fairly good graphics, considering it's about 4 years old, and the sound is alright too. This game may be fun and challenging for someone new to the system, but after you beat it once and find all the hidden characters, it's gets sorta old.
turn and burn

For those of us who cannot make it to the mountains and slide down the hill knocking skiers out of the way, this is the next best thing (without the skiers). From tail-grabs in the half pipe to full course head to head boarding, this game is a fun way to get that boarder inside of you to let loose without the chance of hitting a tree. (Of course when you do in the game you flinch too!!) You've got a choice of boarders with different skills and strengths and then based on the boarder you chosse, you match them up with a board. My suggestion is to choose the best balance of all skills in your boarder and all board capabilities. (When you're going head to head get a board that can turn well and goes really fast!!) The half pipe is the most fun and when you finally pull off a 1080.........YEAH!!!

In comparison to other N64 games, this piece is a worthwhile buy. The single player mode is challenging enough to warrant playing for a while to unlock the secret characters. Two player mode gets pretty boring, pretty quickly because there are only 6 tracks to race on so there's not much variety. The stunt mode is the main appeal of the game and could easily occupy you for hours. However, it soon just becomes a thumb spinning frenzy for points. Given this is fun for a while but it gets all that white junk inside the control stick holder, and ruins thumb coordination for the rest of the day. So buy this game and spin in circles to your heart's content.
An Adequate N64 snowboarding game.

This game definitly fits the thought I had of a snowboarding game when I set out to buy one. The graphics are moderately realstic, the control is ok, and the sound is mediocre. I think they could of done a lot better job designing a game like this, but this edition suffices.
It is one of the only snowboarding games on the N64, which was one of the reasons i bought it. Another reason is the outstanding multiplayer coordination. I bought this as soon as I played it at a friend's house. You unfortunatley play with only 2 players at a time, but it is still fun to play your friend head to head. There are 6 courses, and under single player you can also do half pipe and air make. There are 5 characters that you can use to race, and more of which you can unlock. since there are only 60 head to head course combinations, there are other things you can do, like trick or time attacks.
This can take a bit to get used to, as it can be boring for the single player. If you have a will and a friend however, this game will surely be worth it.

1080 is a very great videogame for N64, I really like it. This game is very intense and fun.I think it is intense because you are racing against other great snowboarders and it is always close at the finish line. I think it is fun because you can win levels and do many tricks such as a 1080. The one thing bad about the game is that it doesn't have many snowboarders. This game also has good graphics. The reason I bought this game, is because I love to snowboard. Buy this game it is at a great price, trust me it is the best snowboarding game you will ever try.
Finally; a great snowboarding game.

I used to love this game; but now it's dated and now that I look back on it, it's not as fun now, either way, here's my review.
Graphics: 8.5/10. This is a more realistic snowboarding game, so there are very realistic colors; unlike snowboarding kids or anything with very bright colors. 1080 features very realistic physics and is very sophisticated. Anyways, the graphics I remember loving mainly because of the powdery snow. I liked to edge in deep snow just because it was it was so fluffy. For that, this game got what it got in this category.
Sound: 9/10. Whether you go through a foot of snow or right accross jagged ice, there's a different noise. There is a different sound for everything, which is strange because really for the most part in many games on the N64 there is the same or a very similar song for everything in the game.
Control: 8/10. Very, very realistic and solid, but It's frustrating for that reason. it is really realistic so you really have to land FLAT to get land, which can be frustrating for little kids. There is also damage; so if you get beat up a lot you will not win the race.
Fun: 8.5/10. Nice and realistic, great events, and different difficulties for every age and cool characters make this a must play for any owner of an N64.
9/10
