Skate or Die was awesome, Skate or Die 2 was a sequel and then they thought: “Maybe Preppys want a game” and Ski or Die was born. Starting this month in 1991 you could pretend to be on a cellular telephone on the slops when really you’re just in the living room.
“Ski or Die is a winter-themed extreme sports game in which the player can competes in 5 different events:
- Downhill Blitz: Downhill skiing event in which the player can make large jumps over chasms and perform stunts in the moguls section
