Strengths: Many events and countries

Weaknesses: Button mashing

Summary: There are plenty of countries and events to choose from. They can be fun at first but they fall into button mashing. Many people will get sick of it. I got it for a cheap price.

Strengths: You can pick from different countries to use for your team to play. There are so many fun events to choose from...

Weaknesses: There could probably be more unconventional events that relate to the condition of today's world.

Summary: Athens 2004 seemed to have more difficult controls for the jumping event. The graphics and sound were impressive. Overall, the game was great because I am a sports enthusiast. I recommend buying Athens 2004 because it is a pleasurable game to play especially if who enjoy watching athletic events. I found it to be an addictive game to play especially when you compete against a friend instead of the computer.

Strengths: Many short games~

Weaknesses: Repeatedly click 2 keys for most of the games~

Summary: This is a nice collection of many little games. Not too spectacular graphics and music. You first select which country you want to be represent, and then choose a game to play. Each games takes about 2 minutes (or shorter if you fail too quickly) to complete. Most of the games require quickly click x and o repeatedly to get enough strength to perform an exercise. At beginning, it was fun, after 3 games, it was boring and my fingers got tired. Other games require some good timing to click the keys. It will not occupy you too long to finish each competition. Overall, it is a nice little game if you can get it for around $10.
