Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam delivers an innovative and unique skateboard experience focused on head-to-head racing. The game allows players to feel the breakneck speed of downhill competition as they tear up the world's steepest terrains while performing tricks and outmaneuvering opponents in such locations as San Francisco, Machu Picchu and Hong Kong. Taking on the role of Tony Hawk or one of nine characters, players compete in time-based challenges in one of three gameplay modes including race, trick and slalom.
'''''Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam''''' is a video game in the ''Tony Hawk'' series made by Toys For Bob and published by Activision as a launch title for [[Wii]]. As a departure from Neversoft's Tony Hawk games, Downhill Jam emphasizes gaining speed and racing opponents, as well as competing for high scores and completing goals. Tricks can still be performed and there is a mode dedicated to high scores, but the main focus of the game is racing. The game is played with the Wii Remote in the horizontal position.

Problems

Video Issues

Videos require "Safe Texture Cache" to render correctly. Otherwise they will show severe artifacts. Fixed since 5.0-12123.

Various static screens require "Skip EFB Access to CPU" disabled to display at all. Otherwise they will be a black screen. Fixed since 5.0-12123.
