The end product may not be as flashy or brilliant as other titles, but it is fun. In the end, that's what matters.
-
Even with the option of taking numerous paths on each mission, once the truth is out there, you probably wont want to bother again.
-
Thanks to a mission-based, narrative design, fine control, and slopes that have a darker atmosphere, Dark Summit really manages to set itself apart.
-
Fanatics and realists should head for "Amped." Folks looking for a fun, solid game that just happens to take place on the snow will probably like Dark Summit.
-
While nothing is overly spectacular, the game is very solid, never seems to 'drag its feet', and the storyline always pushes forward.
-
Another good snowboarding game that quickly becomes addictive -- if you give it the chance.

Play MagazineAs for Naya, well, Im not wild about those bangs, but she does have nice moguls. [Feb 2002, p.59]
-
If a games success is measured by 4 am mornings with Red Bull leaking from your mouth, then Dark Summit is a keeper.
-
A unique take on the snowboarding genre...The overall package just lacks a certain depth that keeps this game from really staying with you, and from challenging you, especially as you get farther in the game.
-
With a more detailed multiplayer mode and maybe a bit more in the way of choices that may effect the games outcome, Dark Summit could be a leader in a new series of sports/adventure titles to come.
-
While it does add some new concepts to the genre, it still may leave you feeling like it wasn't quite geared up for the power of the Xbox.
-
Multiplayer is definitely a weakness with Dark Summit, and hurts the replayability quite a bit.
