Nagano Winter Olympics '98

By Mike Pfeiffer

The 1998 XVIII Olympic Winter Games are a series of excruciating games, which are superbly depicted in this video game. It has two modes of play, Olympic and Championship mode. In the Olympic setting you can choose one of 12 events: Ski Jumping/K= 90 individual., Ski Jumping/K=120, freestyle skiing/aerials, snowboard/half pipe, snowboard/Giant Slalom, Speed skating/500m, Speed skating/1500, Bobsleigh Four-man, Lunge 1,Culing, Alpine skiing/downhill, and the Alpine Skiing/Giant Slalom. In Championship mode the game chooses for you what sport you will compete in, but other than that there are no other differences. It is almost guaranteed that you will become frustrated when you lose because of the lack of game information, but don't worry, you'll get the hang of it.
