I love these games. They are such a fun celebration of the Olympics!
Hopefully they keep on making them and improving!
thank you for an exceptionally done video! An overlooked genre for certain. I personally own the Vancouver title and impressed by the graphics. As for Summer, the London version looks like the title to own. Altho, for PS2 standards I was impressed with Athens, years ago. Quality content, brother.
Thanks! London definitely feels like the peak for me so far, hopefully we see more in the future!
Sydney, Athens, Torino and London are my ultimate favourite games.
Good choices!
Great video, very insightful and entertaining. I love Olympic games and this was a great video cause I've never really had a chance to compare them. You deserve way more views. Greetings from Poland!
Thank you!
Good job with this video my friend. I rarely watch these kinds of things but it was a great subject for me, and you did it well. Thank you for taking the time
Thanks!
Nice overview. I also enjoyed Summer Athletics (PS2) and now I'm playing Summer Challenge: Athletics Tournament (PS3). Athens is the game I played the most, loved it. Summer Athletics had cool controls. London 2012 might be the best, overall.
Great video, this brought back some old memories of finger trauma from playing Athens 2004 with the family.
Subbed!
Honestly, they should just rename most of these games ‘Finger Trauma’. It would be far more accurate!
Me and my cousins would play bejing non stop and all of us would max out the world records every time. My hands are still paying for the damage done by the discus throw though.
Was reminiscing the Torino 2006 game and this showed up as a recommended video. Really glad I watched the whole thing, amazing job with the production, entertainment and effort. As I’m watching a lot of the Olympics in Beijing right now I would really enjoy a new winter game coming out… Maybe in four years? 🙏
Thanks again for the splendid video.
Thanks! I'd love to see a new winter games come along at some point, it's really been way too long!
This is an pretty cool video. I used to play some of these games back in my youth. Keep up the great work I really enjoy this RUclips channel XD
Thanks! I remember enjoying some of the Winter Olympic games a lot more than I did when I played them for this video!
Just like the Olympics in real life, Olympic video games just don't seem to generate the interest or money they once did. I have always loved both, and been playing Olympic video games since the Atari 2600 days. That being said, I agree 100% with your analysis of the Olympic video games. games.
Yeah they really fly under the radar now. A shame since it feels like in this day and age, if it did generate enough interest, we could get a really strong video game out of the Olympics.
I loved Vancouver 2010 as a kid and set most of the global event records on the XBox. It was one of the only games I was ever anywhere near the top of global leaderboards. 10 years later I then got a great job at the studio that produced it (albeit after a rebrand), so that game will always be special to me
That’s awesome! I hope we see some kind of Winter Olympics game again in the future, they can be fun time killers.
I just wanna say keep up the good work you have been doing! I've just discovered this channel and I'm surprise you don't have more subscribers. Congratulations on your Playstation collection 👌👌 Keep posting videos like this!! 👏👏👏👏👏
Thanks! :)
love the vids. Great production for a small channel. Hope your channel keeps growing.
Thanks! I enjoy making them!
Have a bunch of these but don't want arcade feel.
Summer: enjoyed Athens, Beijing & London all for slightly different events with an Olympics made up from combination of the 3.
Winter: Torino is my most played PS2 game (I love Biathlon as a sport ) didn't enjoy Vancouver as much although can be combined with Torino for a winter games.
Imagine a EA Sports made Olympic Videogame. It would be very interesting, since they make most of the most famous sports games, despite we all knowing that all of it are filled with microtransactions. In the end, I wish we could have an expanded and modernized version of the London 2012 game for this year.
It would definitely be interesting to see an experienced sports-game developer take on the Olympics!
Nicely done
Thanks!
An arcade olympics game, why not ? Its a perfect match
Wonderful compilation. Still waiting for new game to beat 2012 IMO
2012 felt like it had the most effort put into it. I just hope we see another Winter Olympics game some day!
nice video
Thank you!
Would like to see a video on all The major football tournament games for the PlayStation. From France 98 and Belgium-Netherlands 00 to Brazil 14 and Euro 12*
I love playing Olympics licensed video games, the 1st one I played was Barcelona 1992 and Lillehammer 1994 on the SEGA Mega Drive and then Athens 2004 from the PlayStation era, I never got the chance to play from Atlanta 1996 to Tokyo 2020 (Except Athens 2004) but I will get there really soon.
Did you know that the soundtrack from Sydney 2000 was composed by Jonathan Colling from Octagon Music Productions, he composed music for the Colin McRae Rally games, no wonder the soundtrack from the Sydney 2000 olympics sounded familiar!
Great work on this video! Greetings from Portugal.
Thanks for watching! Didn’t know that about the music! Hope you get to try out the other games soon.
@@ProjectPlayGaming You're welcome, keep up the good work!
By the way, have you played ESPN International Winter 2002? Its on PS2/Xbox, and is definitely superior to SLC 2002. As it boasts more events, superior graphics, and better presentation. Take care.
Personally: Beijing > Vancouver > Athens > Torino > London > Tokyo. Tokyo is too arcady for me. I want it to feel like the Olympic Games. It didn't for me.
Understandable. I thought Tokyo was decent enough fun, but it is very arcady, definitely not one for someone looking for a more simulation style experience.

I had Athens 2004 back then. Never managed to win one of those long swimming events. They were so exhausting!
I was great at height jumping though. Never had a problem with the rhythm myself ^^u
There's STEEP Pyeongchang2018 road to the olympics
My fingers are getting flashbacks 😅
My fingers still ache just from recording the video!
Great Video! I would like to see you play the Superman Games released on the PlayStation 2
Superman Shadow of Apokolips
Superman Returns
Those are pretty much the only games released on the Playstation 2 no other games after that although there was another Superman game in development around 2008 but it was canceled after brash entertainment the publishers of the canceled game went out of business
Definitely interested in checking out the Superman titles!
The last 2 games are the best imo
They’ve definitely improved over time, hope we get modern Winter Olympics games at some point!
나가노 동계올림픽 쇼트트랙이 최고의 게임이다 제발 쇼트트랙으로 단독출시 했으면 좋겠음 ㅋㅋ
Watch you from Ukraine, thank`s for your work) Interesting like ever)
Always a huge fan of Olympics games! Especially Athens 2004 and London 2012. Unfortunately I didn't like the route they went down with the Tokyo game and the childish vibe and very Asian game feel to it. I prefer the closer to real life replications. Hope we see something in the future closer to the London 2012 style game.
Hopefully we get something for next Olympics!
Olympic Games France 🇫🇷 love ps5
Vancouver 2010 was the best for me
Really hope we see another Winter Olympic video game some day!
Mate i found you in Instagram is there a plan for a new video?
Absolutely! In the process of making a new one now!
Would love to see a londo 2012 video separately 👍
Id happily get the game and join in haha
Out of interest Bejing or London, which waa better?
Overall, London is best overall from a simulation perspective
@@ProjectPlayGaming Thanks for letting me know. Athens was my all time favorite on PS2 so I was debating which one to get so I might try the London one then. I am concerned though that it seems they've changed the tradition button bashing elements for the sprint games when the original system was really the usp of those games. Plus there didn't seem to be a lot of gymnastics from further exploration online. I'll give it a go anyway. Thanks for getting back to me so quickly
@@phoenixforce6595 Yeah it's really tough to get that 'perfect' Olympics game, there's always something missing!
Hello! I Like That Tokyo But To have ?Nowhere Gricket and fieldhockey
To Was Or Not ???
Used to love these games but I guess they're stuck in a strange position of - gamers expect decent graphics and gameplay and these games essentially have a dozen sports in them. Some smaller than others, sure. The second part they're stuck between is ultimately it's very simple gameplay, which again is pretty dated. Just smashing buttons and timing had its place and now, seems boring to many.
Summer Games on the Amiga was my first, the last one I remember buying new was Sydney 2000 on the PS1. But the Olympic Games this year I felt like revisiting them. Turns out Sega haven't renewed the rights so this year it looks like a pretty basic game. Previous years Sega went down a very arcade approach with their mascots such as Sonic. The last 'real' game looks to be London 2012.
Which you can't buy legally anymore, or Bejing 2008 though that is on Steam, it's just not for sale. 2012 is on the web archive and works though, so I gave it a shot and it's pretty poor by previous standards. It feels a bit lifeless, but, it is the game you'd expect, no weird arcade boosts etc.
I also think the basic mechanics of the game lend itself to tablets and phones, so that's probably taken the market from them too. Certainly fun to look back on though as sometimes they got it right.
London 2012 is the best, by a country mile... Tokyo 2020 strays too far from the Olympic feel.
It feels like they finally nailed it with London 2012, then never made another simulation-style Olympic game again!
Tokyo 2020 the worst game.
If you're looking for a more realistic sim, then yeah, 2020 is the furthest from that!
