RALEIGH, North Carolina - If 24-hour coverage of the Olympic Games in China isn't enough for fans, Sega has rolled out the official video game of the 2008 events in Beijing for PC, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and mobile phones.

It offers 38 events from track and field to swimming to judo and has online play for the first time in an Olympics game.

Two things I find interesting about this: first is that the information comes out of my hometown of Raleigh, NC and second, that the game will include on-line play.

I'm still thinking...

I can remember reading about "Izzy's Quest For the Olympic Rings" or something to that effect in 1996. It was the biggest thing since....aw, who am I kidding? Nobody cared.
