ESPN International Winter Sports 2002 is a simple concept at heart. It sets out to bring gamers some of the coolest winter sports -- a hot spot thanks to the recent Olympic 2002 Winter Games. You can choose to go straight to the sport of your choice via Trial Mode or you can attempt to claim the crown as Ice King or Queen in two gender-specific Championship modes. Trial Mode is the best option to begin with since you'll need to become accustomed to the different sports and control mechanics. You begin by choosing a sport and a male or female athlete from your favorite country including USA, Canada, Japan, Great Britain, Germany, France, Italy, and Austria. Oddly enough, the snowbound lover of the cold, Switzerland, wasn't included. The following sports are there for the choosing:
- Downhill -- Alpine Skiing
- Slalom -- Alpine Skiing
- K90=Individual -- Ski Jumping
- K120=Individual -- Ski Jumping
- Moguls -- Freestyle Skiing
- Halfpipe -- Snowboarding
- Speed Skating -- 500m
- Bobsleigh
- Curling
- Figure Skating
