Vancouver 2010 game announced

360 News | Who didn't see this coming?
While it's been known for a while Sega would be handling development/publishing duties of the 2010 Winter Olympics videogame, until now the company hadn't made an official announcement.

Dubbed Vancouver 2010 - the Official Video Game of the Olympic Winter Games (that's a mouthful, isn't it?), the game will apparently feature a new challenge mode, improved controls and online gameplay compared to Beijing 2008. Certain sports will also let players have a first person view of the action, which is designed to "immerse [them] even more in the game". Unfortunately Sega didn't reveal much more, though if accompanying 'work in progress' screenshots are anything to go by, we can expect ski-jumping to be one of the many events featured in the final build.

Vancouver 2010 is scheduled to be released in 2010 at the same time as the Winter Olympics in Vancouver take place. It will be available on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC platforms.

Have they announced Mario and Sonic at the Winter Olympics yet? I'd be surprised if they didn't make that, considering the popularity of the first one.

Olympic games are so unreliable in the sense of sports games. Most other sport games do an okay job recreating the action and providing immersion but olympic games are far off the pace.
As long as it's not a button masher and includes some quantafiable skill in it's execution i might just might have a look at it.
