"Athens 2004 offers little more than an excuse to inadvertently break a perfectly fine PlayStation 2 controller by repeatedly mashing its buttons into a fine dust or perhaps some kind of thick plastic pudding"

"A debate I had with a colleague is how long it would take us to construct a LEGO Mindstorm robot that could beat the game better than any human. The current estimate is two days of work."

" 3.0 Gameplay
This is it. This is the greatest Commodore 64 game ever made. X, O, X, O, X, O, X, O, X, O, X, O, X, O, X, O, L1, X, O, X, O, X, O, X, O, X, O, X, L1 ..."


Any positives comments who make me feel like I wanna buy it?

I have a feeling everything about this years olympic's is going to be a disaster.

Greece needs to fix their huge problems with their bureaucracy before they can ever consider something as huge as the olympics.

Athens is impossible to get around as it is.

Let me guess, in all the time leading up to its going gold, there are constant fears in the follower community that it will not be ready in time ...

...

Then, the development team declares the game will not be ready before the actual games start in real life, but it will co-incide with the start of the Athens games ...

... in March 2005 ... ;)

I don't get this anti-greek attitude I hear everyday - it mostly comes from the English an they are very spiteful towards Greeks.

Well thats just not cricket, is it ? ;)

don't buy it. My brother did and then he broke it in half. Said it was the worst game ever created lol.

I never found a game about olympic games which was noticable
this games are always the same: poor ,with good license but no gameplay and short (you get bored too quickly)
DO NOT BUY ONE!!!!!!!!!

Not really. With the new transportations there making it will be easy.
