Why you can trust GamesRadar+
DS gamers have already had their fill of Downhill Jam - it came out over a month ago and features much of the same gameplay. The major difference for the Wii version is the pyramid structure of the levels. Each challenge you beat gives you points for bronze, silver and gold-level victories. The more points you earn, the more stat-boosting boards you can buy, plus unlock nauseating new raceways like Rome, Rio or the mountainous Macchu Picchu.
You get a few areas not seen in the DS version, but by and large this is the same game - meaning the DS' troubles with getting turned around are still here. If you get hit or take a turn too sharp and bump into something, simple movements to get back on track is harder than they should be.
