This is, of course, mostly due to geography – but it's hard to get excited when we, unlike Jamaica, don't even have a bobsleigh team. The 2010 winter Olympics begin this Friday in Vancouver, and as with most such events it comes with its own videogame. Let's take a look and see if Vancouver 2010 holds the gold at the podium, or crashes headfirst into the icy snow below."
The AH gents and lads compete in winter sports and represent their countries in The Achievement Hunter 2014 Winter Olympics games.

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."
3djuegos: In an effort to recoup the mediocre Beijing 2008, SEGA revitalizes its Olympic franchise with a much greater Vancouver 2010. We are not in the final title of Olympic sports, but to a very serious leap forward and before a title is not negligible.
