When I first heard about the concept for Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam, I was amongst the most sceptical. It seemed too far removed from the original formula and I wasn't sure it would work and I was asking why they couldn't just port Project 8 onto the Wii.Well...I finally got round to buying for two reasons. The first was the strength of previous games under the Tony Hawk franchise, I have yet to be disapointed by a game. The other reason is it struck me as similiar to SSX snowboarding style games which I have always enjoyed anyway.After playing it I can tell you. The franchise has once again succeded in making another great game. Probably the most different from the original line up to date.BUT is different neccessarily bad? Apparently not. Many people are intimidated by change but that is one of the underlying themes of the Wii itself so it is only natural that the consol and this game go together and they go well together.The control system, whilst taking a bit of getting used to is very well suited to the wii-mote. There are only 8 different maps but they are so vast it is like having 4 or 5 levels within each one. A difference is this is the first game to carry Birdmans name when he's the only player in the game that actually exists. I'm not sure whether that's good or bad, it just is what it is.The game isn't without it's weaknesses however. The absence of a Create-a-Skater is very damaging. A feature that gamers have been enjoying for years. There appears to be no freeskate mode so its impossible for you to just chill out and get used to the enviroment and controls. The soundtrack is ok but not up to its usual high standard. One character (MacKenzie) has the worst imitation British accent I've ever heard. A part from those however it's a very good game.I was plesently surprised by Downhill Jam and it didn't take long before I became completely addicted to it4/5David Stanbury

This is surely among the better launch titles that graced the Wii's debut. It's not like the traditional Tony Hawk games, but it isn't meant to be.Instead of simply pulling off tasks and tricks for no apparent reason, the layout of this game is much akin to the SSX series. There are races and downhill challenges and some trick target games.Sure, it gets a bit repetitive, but it's fun nonetheless. The characters are seriously annoying, but you can, as always, create your own. It doesn't look spectacular, but you're going too fast to notice.At the very least, it's a good way to get into the Wii remote's functionality, as you have to use the motion sensor to steer your skater. As with all the Wii games,it's tough and a bit frustrating at first, but easy enough to pick up after a few tries.Downhill Jam is nothing new, but it is a lot of fun, especially with a group of friends, and at the kind of prices you can get a copy for now, it's certainly well worth buying.

At first glance I wasn't impressed with the game, i usually prefer FPS and action type games! Borrowed this from my niece, thought i'd give it a go, now i'm so glad that i did! Only problem was that i had to buy my own copy! It's challenging, exciting and very addictive! The multiplayer game is great!What more can i say, I love this game! Controls are simple but do take some getting used to! You may find yourself shouting at the TV more often than you would like, but don't forget its not the character its you who is controlling it!Even if you wouldn't normally play this type of game, give it a go! You won't be able to put it down!

Youngest son wanted to get this for his brother as a birthday present. We had a copy some time ago which was lost/broken/awol, and youngest was sure his big brother missed it.I ordered this for him with some concern as, being 13 going on 23, I was concerned he might not really want to play it any more. He was delighted! The old controllers came out and he loves it as much as ever.A timeless classic. If you don't mind the broken bones and head injuries. But better on screen than off, perhaps.

My expectations were medium even though I am a TH fan, but this game lived up and beyond them. It is a little confused about itself but all the elements of a good game are in there, they need straightening out but you can have fun with it anyway, they even got the graphics right. Probably the most competant racer currently on the Wii.This is a 'must buy' launch game if you are into racing at all.

I bought this game for my 11 year old son in August as we didn't have many games for the Wii and this looked like a fun one. We have all enjoyed playing it as a family, I usually get beaten by my 5 year old son.There is so much to unlock in this game that you can keep going for ages. I would highly recommend it for any family or group of friends.

When I first got this game I wasn't to impressed with it. Yes it was good but it didn't blow me away.Then I started playing multiplayer and wow this game suddenly became brilliant.Its well worth a try if your going to play with friends and the single player mode isn't bad just not as fun as it could be.

this game is amazing,it has great music, speed and mechanics.the reason i gave it 4 stars overall is because it does take some getting used to the controls but once you do this is the game that dont stop givin with costumes,boards and art to unlock its gonna take months to get even close to completion

Best skateboarding for wii but lacks free roam but has really fun multiplayer ! If you want a full on skateboarding game I do not recommend downhill jam.

Product works ok. The game is a bit tricky for my young grandson I think he will need to wait a bit to play it!
