Game Storyline
Players can choose to play as Tony Hawk or one of eight original characters. Additionally, they can create their own character with the Create-A-Skater feature. You can create your own skateboard, too, or simply choose from a wide variety of stock skateboards.

You have the option of selecting from contemporary boards, old school "fishtails," longboards, and 70s skateboards, all of which have different attributes that will have an effect on gameplay.

Gameplay
Developed for the Wii, gamers use an innovative and intuitive control system as they take on the role of Tony Hawk or one of eight other characters. Choose who you want to be, and then compete in specific time-based challenges in one of three gameplay modes including race, trick and slalom.

Gamers can also challenge friends in head-to-head competitions with up to four players at once, as they pull off a variety of high-velocity stunts, all while racing in populated environments filled with cars, pedestrians, and buildings.

This is my boys all time favorite game

This is my oldest 2 sons favorite game. They are 5 and 8. We have over 20 games, but they play this one everyday. (This and Super Smash Bros Brawl).
 

Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam

My 11th year old son received the Wii version for his birthday. He is totally hooked on it. Money well spent.
 

My 4 & 6 year old love it!

We did research on this game, and found many "professional" gamers dislike for the simplicity. Let me tell you that for $[...] this game is a steal. My two boys play it all the time, and jump around while steering their skateboard, and trying tricks that no human could ever pull off or survive from. Some of the background music choices aren't my favorites by any stretch of the imagination, but if you can get over that then this game is great for young gamers. Toys R Us was selling this game for $[...] this past fall.
 

well worth the price

Granted I got this during a gold deal...but it is a great game even at regular price. Good graphics. It was a little tricky to master at first, as there are a number of special moves you have to do to get lots of points. However once you learn them it is fantastic. Highly recommended!
 

Electrifying

I bought this game for my grandson's birthday. He is crazy about it. My grandson is 4 yrs old.
