NZGamer: Vancouver 2010 Review

NZGamer writes: "Can't wait for the 2010 Winter Olympics? Well they are here now, in game form! Vancouver 2010 is British developer Eurocom's second shot at a (metaphorical) gold medal in Olympic titles which, in a weird turn of events, has been released before the Olympics have begun.

There are two main single player modes to play through: Olympic Games and Challenges. The Olympic mode is essentially a quick play and multiplayer mode combined. You can pick from any of the events and dive in either against AI players or a friend, over system link or Xbox Live. The Challenge mode offers more for the single player with three mountains to climb: Easy, Intermediate and Advanced."

The last attempt – centered on the 2008 Summer Games in Beijing – failed miserably due to ridiculous mechanics, clunky and sometimes impossible control, lackluster technicals and an almost complete lack of pageantry and theatricality. The latter is part of what makes the Olympics great, if we've already forgotten, and while Vancouver 2010 still lacks that, Eurocom made good strides in righting many of the past wrongs."
