Bejing 2008 was supposed to be better than Athens 2004. Unfortunately the game copies alot the previous mistakes.
Bejing 2008 copies the mistakes of the previous edition in many places, mainly the steering system is the problem - which comes down to pounding on your keyboard. It was supposed to be more tactical and smooth, instead i... Read Full Review
