Review: Sorry for the corny title couldn't help it.

Athens 2004 is a very good game, the amount of events you can take part in is pretty impressive. Anything from running, javelin, discuss, swimming, gym + lots more. Good all round game, will provide hours of fun or misery depending on yourself.

Pro's
*Plenty of events
*Easy controls
*create your own event list
*Good loading time
*Dance mat Compatable (burn those calories)

Con's
*Graphics aren't brillant i get the feeling it was rushed
(could definately improve)
*Easy controls BUT its a button basher
(played non stop you'll have blisters)
*Lose appeal if played for long
*My saves seem to delete? or won't save properly?
(maybe thats my console)

Anyway.. good game i can't really compare to other sporting games i haven't got any, it will provide fun for a few hours, but the button bashing gets boring not to mention it hurts, all athletic fans go buy it, for newcomers maybe rent first.

Would be better on more consoles, plus better graphics would make it a five star!
