Flash Game Introduction
    It’s the season of sport, because everyone’s attention has already been drawn to the Athens Olympics. When our athletes are doing their best to compete in the international fields, we, of course, can’t merely sit and watch their excellent performances through TV and Internet. We can also take part in the Games, not in Athens, but in a series of sports flash games made by CCTV.com and frontnetwork.com. We hope the games that include most of the important games in Olympics can bring you a moment of relax in your busy watching time and let you experience the ecstasy when you “break the world record”. Enjoy them!
