Tony Hawk hits the half-pipe in new Wii trailer

[wraggster]

Activision has released a new trailer for Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam, demonstrating exactly how the Wii version of the game will work with Nintendo's motion-sensing controller.

Downhill Jam is a bit of a departure from the more traditional Tony Hawk's games, shifting the action away from the skatepark and over to the steep city streets for some head-to-head (wait for it...) downhill racing. As you can see from the vid, you can use the Wii controller to manoeuvre your skater much like a steering wheel, while at the same time flicking the pad around to perform the Hawkster's famous moves and tricks.

You can try out the new Wii-powered Tony Hawk for yourself when it grinds into the shops later this year.
