I have this, it has 38 Events and also online for 1-8. You can even play 2 players from the same machine.
You can set up online to play 1 event or multiple, or even all, it also has the Decathlon etc already programmed as a selectable event type.
How about that, at last an olympics that you can play online. I put this thread up and have only played 4 events in a room (without knowing the controls lol), with no lag at all but I might just have been lucky.
Let me know if any of you plan on picking it up, I know Haino has it as well. Or maybe if you have a rental place near you we can organise a night when a few of us go online and people all go and rent.

Dope and Joe are gonna buy it, Ultra is gonna rent it, maybe Jack as well. Red said he was gonna buy it but even if he does I doubt he will know how to get it working, let alone be able to do any of the events.
iProd is gonna get it in about a week.

Just to let you all know that GB are setting up a singles ladder. There are 46 players currently signed up for it. The settings are yet to be confirmed.
Just thought you might like to know in case you want to join the ladder.
