ACTIVISION’S TONY HAWK’S DOWNHILL JAM FOR NINTENDO DS AND GAME BOY ADVANCE   CROSSES THE RETAIL FINISH LINE    


New Title Is the First and Only DS Game to Enable Voice Chat During Gameplay Over Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection
   


  Santa Monica, Calif. — October 24, 2006 — Family and friends can travel the   globe and sprint towards the finish line with the first ever downhill   skateboard racing game, Tony Hawk’s Downhill Jam for Nintendo DSâ„¢, now   available at retail stores nationwide.  Developed by Vicarious Visions and   published by Activision, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATVI), the game builds upon the   design of Tony Hawk’s American SK8Land and pushes the limits of Nintendo DS   hardware by introducing voice chat over the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection   allowing players to communicate with other DS players worldwide.    


   


“Tony Hawk’s Downhill Jam introduces innovative technology never seen before   on the DS," said Will Kassoy, senior vice president of global brand   management, Activision, Inc.  â€œIn addition to supporting up to four players   in multiplayer and offering expanded options to create custom graphics, for   the first time players can cheer on their friends or taunt their challengers   in co-op or head-to-head competition modes."    


   


Tony Hawk’s Downhill Jam for DS allows players to experience the breakneck   speed of downhill skateboard racing as they tear up the steepest terrains in   the world while performing tricks and outmaneuvering opponents in locations   such as the crowded streets of San Francisco and rocky terrain of   Kilimanjaro.  Gamers will feel the adrenaline rush as they travel the globe   and shred downhill with Tony Hawk while making the gravel and dust fly.   Featuring cutting edge Nintendo DS technology, such as breakthrough   graphics, voice chat, and local wireless and online gameplay using Nintendo   Wi-Fi Connection for up to four players, Tony Hawk’s Downhill Jam for   Nintendo DS delivers an incredible online handheld experience.      


Tony Hawk’s Downhill Jam was developed by Vicarious Visions and is currently   available at retail stores nationwide for a suggested retail price of $34.99   and has been rated “E" (Everyone) by the ESRB.  A Game BoyÃ’ Advance version   developed by Visual Impact Productions is also available for a suggested   retail price of $29.99 and has been rated “E" (Everyone) by the ESRB.  For   more information and to become part of the Tony Hawk’s Downhill Jam   community, visit http://ds.downhill-jam.com/.
