ESPN International Winter Sports 2002
Description (IGDB)
Take on the world in 10 different events. Compete in two forms of Ski Jumping (K=90 and K=120), Alpine Skiing Downhill, Freestlye Skiing Moguls, Short Track 500 (skating), Figure Skating, Snowboard G Slalom, Snowboarding Halfpipe, Biathlon, and the Luge. You can compete in trials of each event, the competition of all 10 events, or in excite mode. Try for medals from each event. See if you can come in first in all events, and then try to beat your own records. Events require pressing buttons quickly for speed, pressing buttons in the right order at the right time to do tricks, and turning. The Figure Skating event is very much like the Dance Dance series of games.

Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« Getting golds across the board certainly ain't easy, but decimating your mates/siblings/granny (shame on you!) is what'll keep you coming back to Ronald long after the snow has thawed. »
« A solid, fun mix of mini-games directly descended from Track & Field’s royal lineage. If you think vigorous button-mashing is the lowest form of gameplay, however, stay far, far away. »
« This game is an absolute hoot, and triumphs in almost every way over its summer counterpart. [Mar 2002, p.105] »
« There's a significant amount of enjoyment to be had here, if you're of the mind to find it, but the more annoying events (those with poor control) really bring the rest of the title down for me. »
« Button timing and mashing is fine, but it would be great if Konami could expand snowboarding (and even figure skating) into a more combo-laden affair a la Tony Hawk. [Mar 2002, p.79] »
« The only thing I could say is that I wanted to go off and play "Track n Field" to get my Olympic fill. »
« Neither of these games bring home the gold in accurately simulating the Olympics, but ESPN International Winter Sports does a less-worse job of doing so [than "Salt Lake 2002."] »
« It just doesn't have a lot of lasting appeal. »
