Getting to the top is hard. Staying there is even harder. Winter Sports 2 gives you another chance to prove that you're a champion. Compete at the highest level in nine of the most prominent winter sports, with 15 different disciplines to master. Experience the rush of international competition as you're thrust into the glare of sports' highest stage. This sequel adds two new events - the biathlon and the snowboard halfpipe - and 13 new levels and arenas. Test your versatility in 42 bonus challenges that stretch across every event, compete against a friend in split-screen, or see if you can handle the "Hot Seat" in four-person multiplayer.
