2. Winter Games

This is
what the Winter Olympics would be like if Hell froze over and
we decided to hold them there. This very well might be the worst
sports game on any system. You play four very horrid events
in attempt to do nothing. You don't even win a medal or a trophy
or anything. After watching the poorly programmed opening ceremony,
you get to the main screen. On the main screen you can either
play through all the events, pick your event, look at the world
records (which are all set by you after you play all the events),
or if you're feeling really saucy you can pick to watch the
opening ceremony again. Here's a rundown of all the events.
Hot Dog
Aerials - You watch from a side angle as your skier does a certain
number flips.Sadly, this is the least frustrating one.
Speed Skating
- I haven't exactly figured out how to master this, but from
what I've played of it you press all the buttons at the same
time and watch as your skater loses to the opponent.
Figure Skating
- The person who decided to put this event into a videogame
must be a lazy programmer. What you do is wait for time to run
out, because if you press a button the skating chick will fall
on her ass one way or another.
Bobsledding
- This happens to be the least painful of all the events, mainly
because the average person can figure it out. It does happen
to be extremely boring, though.
The game
might have been good, if only it hadn't lacked anything remotely
close to
fun.
