I think that Airblade is very cool. Although the controls can be confusing at times the overall gameplay is superb. With the story-mode, this game is a first in its field. Also, who doesn't like riding on a hoverboard like Marty McFly? Overall this game is a great buy. Since the controls are a little hard to handle I rate this game a 4.
not what you would hope for

I have to admit, when I started the game, it looked really awesome. I kept playing it. I got to the third level and just realized it was not a good game. It is hard and the music is horrible. I would recommend Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 over this any day. I don't think you should get this game. Save your money. The levels are dumb, the graphics are ok, the music and sound is horrible, and the story line is lame. It is just like any other sports game, where you have objectives. The objectives are really dumb. The board doesn't go as high as you would think. It is like a few inches from the ground. I thought I would be able to fly with the character. Doesn't turn out that way. The mobility is not too good. The game seems a bit old, too. I just don't want anyone to be dissappointed the way I am.
An awesome game

I don't know why other people say this game was so horrible. I enjoyed and still do enjoy this game througly. Sure, it may not have such attention to detail like Tony Hawk, but it really is an awesome game.
The story in the story mode is iffy...but you'd expect that from a sports game.
One of the most enjoyable features of the game is the fact that the airblade does not touch the ground. You are free to defy gravity and pull off kickass combos, leaving Tony Hawk standing on the ground gawking at you.
But...the most enjoyable feature of the game is the multiplayer. Especially the multitap support. Eight players trying to pull off the best combos? Insane.
This is an awesome game that I would strongly suggest that you get. It's well worth it.
AIRBLADE RULES

Airblade was one of the top ten games (in my life). The game is hard and has great graphics. even though the Last level of the game (it took me a week to get there)is all about time. This is really close to Tony Hawk but who cares about that there is alot of action and adventure spining and jumping and the songs ROCK. If u are a person who really likes to win well this is a game for u to give u a pat on the back. Plus u would like a memory card for this i lost it and then i found it at the last day when i was sopposed to give it back. WELL GOOD LUCK IF U BUY THIS GAME.
<- IS MY RATING FOR THIS GAME

FIRST OF ALL, FOR THE PRICE, THIS GAME IS WORTH THE MONEY. THE GAME IS SOME WHAT HARD, MEANING YOU WILL LOSE AT THE GAME MORE THAN ONCE. BUT I HAVE FOUND THAT FOR SOME REASON, LOSING AT A GAME SEEMS FUN TO MOST VIDEO GAME PLAYERS. (OK I'LL ADMIT THE IDEA OF LOSING SOUNDS LAME, BUT LOSING IS WHAT COMES FROM PLAYING A HARD GAME LIKE A ZELDA® GAME.) I HAVE NOT BEATEN THE 3RD LEVEL OF AIRBLADE YET BUT, I KNOW THERE IS HOPE AND I HAVE BEATEN ALL OF THE FACTERS IN LEVEL 3 (I JUST DIDN'T GET TO THE GATE WHEN IT WAS OPEN, DON'T ASK) THIS GAME ALSO HAS A LOT OF OPTIONS, LIKE THE MAKING OF AIRBLADE MINI MOVIE. IN CLOSING, THIS GAME CAN BE A LOT OF FUN IF YOU LET IT SHINE IT IT'S OWN WAY
Not so bad, but far from great

I rented this about a week ago. I had it for five days and didn't play it as much as I usually would play a rented game, probably because it wasn't that great. The concept was kinda interesting and the box art looked cool, so I figured I'd give it a try.
The controls take a bit getting used to, as the game is suprisingly much different from any snowboarding or skateboarding game out there. A few hours into it, though, and you should pretty much have the hang of it.
The graphics, although nothing special, were pretty nice looking. The actual airboard your character rides on is a cool looking thing, and from I remember the characters and levels were crisp and great looking. The sound, however, was pretty damn annoying. When you fall off your board there are a small amount of different grunts that the character makes, all of which annoyed the hell out of me for some reason. Most of the small phrases the main character and his enemies blurted out were annoying as well.
I definately recommend one rents this game before going out and buying it based on the cover or the hover-boarding idea. The game was fun, I suppose, but not something I'd want to own.
Airblade!

A few weeks ago I bought this game, and it is awsome! The other reviewers think it [stinks], but they dont know anything! The graphics are relly good,it has a plot(it's not that good but hey its a sports game so give it some slack), and very, very detailed levels. You can trick on almost anything! the controls take a little gettin used to(as with all games), but after a few sessions in frestyle mode, you'll be a pro!
P.S. the multiplayer games are tight(theres lots of different ones) and the can hold up to 8 players!
I only wish it had more levels!
Overall= Very Good game
An Awesome Hoverboard Game

So far this game has came out strong.It's better than any stakeboarding or snowboarding game(not like I'm saying there bad games).Lately(since I have the demo disk for it)I have found this game is pretty interesting.
You ride around on a hoverboard that is pretty hard to control.But of course you're gonna have to get used to it.You don't fall off any thing when your ginding, but don't hit anyone or they'll knock you off your board.You have 2 playable characters named Ehtan and Kat(well those are the only ones on the demo disk).
The music is pretty tackky and sounds like something from the 70's.It has an easy story line to follow.You can do cool tricks and go into neat places.It has cool to player games like ribbion tag and stuff like that.
Overallcit's a cool game, but I think I like Kinetica more,but that's just my opiopon.
This game [is bad]

This game totally [is bad]. I played it for 2 ours and it got boring. It is so dumb. I got [into it] because it was the only one in it's genre and it looked cool to fly and a hoverboard. But don't get fooled, ...
Sucks
