Let me preface my review by stating that I have a bit of a bias when it comes to Olympic games. The reason can be sumed up in a few words: Nagano Winter Olympics for the PS One. When that game came out I had flashbacks to when I used to play "Summer Games" and "Winter Games" and every new version on my Commodore 64. The games were made by Epyx I beleive. They knew how to do it. You have a real competetion going on, and the game kept track of the world records.
Nagano was a joke, all you could do was run the events, there was no "Olympics" to speck of. No medal rounds or anything. So when I saw this new game on the shelf, I knew it needed a bad review. It should get a 0.
