"Airblade-First Impressions"

Airblade came through my door around 2 hours ago (thank you SR {:)) and here are my first impressions.

I have never been into skateboarding games, which is why I took a risk getting this. It's not skateboarding however, it's hoverboarding, which seems to add a whole new lease of gameplay.

There are loads of modes, single and multiplayer. I haven't started the actual story mode yet (hopefully more impressive than Smackdown 3's) and the controls are easy and effective. There are massive amounts of tricks, and of course you can grind, grab the board, and swing round objects like lamp-posts.

The environments are lovely, with loads of places to jump and grind, and lots of things going on in the background, with cars, lorries and people.

So overall it's looking good. I still haven't tried the main part of the game, so I'll give another verdict later on. I would like to hear anyone else's views on the game.

PS- Who saw the World Cup draw??

I think England are in with Argentina, Sweden and Nigeria... although I may have taken the advert the wrong way...

To be honest, we can Beat Nigeria, Sweden and Argentina...

I think we play each team tiwce, don't we?

I think we'll beat Nigeria twice, Sweden twice and get a Win and a Lose to Argentina... we can beat them, and I think we will once... but with Ortega, Batistuta etc, they're gonna be a BIG test...

I hate the Argentines! :D


Game

Good morning 1/2 pint.

i'm stuck on the level ontop of all the buildings- keep falling off.

If we are as good as everyone reckons, we should be able to qualify. At least it means if we do qualify, we won't meet Argentina again, unless both teams get to the final.

Yes, I would.

Started Story mode today, and it's very original and a lot of fun. You have to take out guardd and billboards doing tricks, you have to go up to roofs, use bridges, and on some you might have to swing on 3 or 4 lamp-posts before you get to te place you want to go. High octane action, and I'm loving every minute of it.

Would you recommend buying it then Ant?
