Get Ready For The Olympics With London 2012


With less than 30 days to go till the opening ceremony for the 2012 World Olympics, excitement has been mounting worldwide as countries prepare themselves and their Olympians for the marvelous spectacle that is the Olympics.

For most of us the Olympics will always remain a far-off dream, amazing feats of sporting excellence performed by herculean athletes vying for glory and gold. But for those of us who have been technologically enlightened, or are fortunate enough to own a gaming console, there may still be a chance to experience some of the excitement that comes along with taking part in the Olympics.

London 2012 gives you the chance to, in a small way, be a part of the Olympics!
