Airblade: Better Than Tony Hawk?

90% score
Airblade is a very awesome game with cool and unique characters and a fun but simple story line. The game really goes into areas other freestyle skateboarding like games have never even touched. Although the "Airblades" are hover boards they are basically futuristic skateboards. What drew me to the game was the whole hoverboard concept. I mean I've watched Back to the Future 2 tens of times and always awed over how cool those hoverboards were. Even though they don't exist, Airblade gets us much close. It is a blast to grab the vertical and horizontal poles and SWING, SWING, SWING! Unlike other boarding games, Airblade has that feature and a story. Although simplistic, like I said, it is better than no storyline. Is it better than Tony Hawk 3? I think so, I like THPS3, but generally I think Airblade outshines in in many areas. Therefore making it a very awesome game.
