  • Best games ever. China raised the bar so high, from now on, every Olympic Games will be judged by the Beijing 2008 games standards.

    And no games will match the Beijing 2008 for a long time.

  • I was in Beijing during the Olympic Games.

    Oh my god, maybe the best games EVER !!!

    I Love Beijing.

    I Love China !!!
