Torino 2006 for PlayStation 2

The sportsmanship, grandeur, and competition of the 2006 Winter Olympic Games come home with Torino 2006. Go for the gold in 15 different events across 8 sports including skiing, speedskating, bobsled, luge, and biathlon. Striking graphics re-create wintry Italian landscapes with majesty worthy of the Olympics. While it takes years of training to make the Olympic squad, Torino 2006 features intuitive pick-up-and-play controls that let any family member step right in and compete.

All the while, the festive atmosphere of the games comes through with authentic commentators, TV cameras, and sounds.
