Washington Post Review
The main drawback to all of the Olympic video games is that the gameplay is too one-dimensional. In "Torino 2006," for instance, there are 15 events, but when you account for slight rule variations, there are only eight different challenges. The luge and bobsled events are the same thing in terms of gameplay. And the various skiing events are nearly identical. For instance, the Nordic is considered a separate event, even though it's simply a combination of cross-country skiing and ski jumping. The three speedskating events have been broken up, despite being the same save for the distance skated.
