at last years Spaceworld event, 1080 2 seemed disappointing nothing more
than an upgrade of the N64 classic. Being developed by Left Field at the
time (developer of NBA Courtside) has now lost their second party status
and the game has now been in shifted into Nintendo to be finished. The
game is now coming along well.
1080 White Storm carrying
the 'storm' series along after Wave Race Blue Storm is looking fantastic.
The graphics are looking up and run smoothly. It's looking like the 1080
series could be a hit on Gamecube.
The controls are slick and
responsive. The gameplay is looking like a fully overhauled version of the
N64 game. The N64 game was a more of a stunt/trick game but were hoping
that White Storm has more features.
If we could only hope for
one thing in the game it would be to include a bucketload of original
tracks. Well we can only wait and see. But anyway there is a realistic
avalanche and other cool effects.
While still early in
development we should see this game mid-2003.
Anticipation Rating 95/100
