It's a good game

User Rating: 7.3 | Athens 2004 PS2
By Rome_212 | Review Date:
Athens 2004 is just a collection of minigames, so there isn't much satisfaction winning a competition. This game is the best in multiplayer. Some things are impossible to do, like being able to lift the maximum weight in weightlifting, and getting an excellent score on gold difficulty of gymnastics vaulting. These are just some of the things. Lots of the sports gets you tired. Good excercise, but getting that tired from button mashing is not always good.

The graphics are no good. Most of all the people's skins are solid colored and don't look very realistic (I'm not being racist). The sand effects are good though.

Play this game if you got energy and friends. Rent the game first.
