I posted the Summer Olympic Review Special I promised:
http://videogamecritic.com/extras/theme ... _games.htm
Selecting the games was a little tricky! Obviously all the track and field/Decathlon games were an obvious fit, but there are a lot of volleyball/tennis/golf/soccer/etc games I could have also included. In the end I decided not to because they didn't have Olympic themes. I did include the Michael Phelps game of course because I'm from Baltimore for Pete's sake.
It's a work in progress so if anyone has any suggestions let me know.

Re: Summer Olympic Review Special
Great! But you missed a few games you reviewed on your site!
Why not include
- Summer Athletics (Wii)
- Virtua Athlete (Dreamcast)
- Izzy's Quest for the Olympic Rings (Genesis)

Thanks! What's your favorite Olympics game on this list? (I only played Decathlete for Saturn and did not enjoy it very much).

Re: Summer Olympic Review Special
I got two more additions on the way (next week):
Summer Games (Atari 2600)
Mario and Sonic at the Rio Games (Wii U)
I'm kind of surprised there's not a "serious" Rio Olympics title this year.
