Vancouver 2010 developer, Brit outfit Eurocom, have managed to perfectly reflect the public’s mood of total indifference with their game, and this is really the only score on which they can be warmly congratulated.Featuring a stingy 14 events, only hal...

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 Oly...

Here we go again; another olympics, another video game and yet another media bash session. However, perhaps not. Eurocom are very experienced in Olympic video games, now having done the past Winter and Summer Olympic games and as such there is hope...

How long have these kinds of sports games been running the same lane? It certainly seems like forever, and Vancouver 2010, with its insistence on boiling gameplay down to a combination of button mashing, timing and the odd stick movement, really hasn’t...
Playing on your own is less fun than death, but we have to offer as a reprieve for Eurocom’s effort two very important caveats. Firstly, as briefly mentioned before, it’s easily the best looking Olympic tie-in ever made. Secondly, it’s a...

The Olympics havent seen a good game tie in since Nintendo had that pad you could run on. In fact, its so long ago Im not even certain that was a real Olympic tie-in. Twenty years is a long time, but with games like Beijing Olympics its not a surpr...
Truth be told, Vancouver 2010 is actually a decent title; the sports are fun and easy to grasp even if theyre all fairly punishing. Sound controls and a long list of challenges will give gamers something to task themselves with that they can enjoy fo...

The Olympic Winter Games conjures up thoughts of national pride - our country's team winning the gold and showing the rest of the world exactly what our athletes are made of. That's what SEGA and EuroCom have tried to do in Vancouver 2010, their video...
Crisp visuals, online and challenge modes, and the bobsleigh...
Lack of career mode and pageantry. It's also missing several important events.
The Olympic Winter Games are to be held this year in Vancouver. However, you can jump into the games and try some of the events yourself with SEGA's new Vancouver 2010. Question is: Does it live up to the excitement and pageantry of the actual games...

When the 2010 Winter Olympics finally kick off this month there's no doubt in my mind the land will be awash with white, crunchy snow. Fun snow. Not like snow here, which is only fun for two hours before it turns brown, forces everyone to spend more mo...

Everyone over a certain age loves a bit of virtual track and field. The simple button-mashing controls take us back to a time when games were a collection of poorly animated sprites with limbs moving faster than humanly possible. There was a sense of a...

I’m not what you would call a huge sports fan, but I love watching the Olympics. Whether it’s the winter or summer games, there is just something about the prestigious sporting event that drives me to follow every moment. Maybe it’s seeing athletes fro...

Why do you watch the Olympics (summer and winter) every two years? Some might say it's for the supreme athleticism on display, others might argue that it's the really tight clothing that all the participants wear. For me, it's all about the medal count...
Vancouver 2010 is a fun experience for a short while that is aided slightly by challenges and online competition. If only this game had some semblance of a career mode or anything that felt slightly like the real Olympics, then perhaps SEGA would have...

While not every Winter Olympic sport is represented in Sega's Vancouver 2010, like Biathlon, the list is long enough to offer something for every fan of winter sports and the game simple enough for pretty much anyone can pick up a controlle...

Let's be honest with ourselves: the Winter Olympics are the diet Mr. Pibb of the sports world. They might resemble a somewhat more acceptable product, eg. the Summer Olympics, but even that can't help distract from the fact that we'd rather be watchin...

6Sega took some steps in the right direction with Vancouver 2010, but the overall absence of that intangible feeling that The Olympics ignites within most people is still vividly obvious. The game may be fun to play, but that sense of fun will turn in...

SEGA offered us the opportunity to play through a bit of their upcoming Winter Olympics game, Vancouver 2010, at E3 this year. The final game will ship with some fourteen events giving players the chance to get a little athletic action without having t...
