The game mostly focuses on single player, but it does have a party mode that allows you to play with friends. Gymanstics and diving were particularly bad, while aiming games such as archery were surprisingly good.Īll together it’s a mixed bag, but this is really common with sports games that involve many different sports instead of simply focusing on one. This is because the developers can’t possibly give the same attention and detail to every mini game when there are so many of them.īecause of this, some of the games are fantastic to play, and others are rather forgettable. Like other Olympic spin-offs such as Olympic Games Tokyo 2020: The official video game, there is a huge variance in quality for each sport. It would have made more sense for this to focus entirely on speed in this one event. With sprinting, stamina really isn’t a big feature, it’s all about speed. The added stamina feature makes sense in most of the racing, but for some reason is still included in the sprint. This makes running a little bit trickier than simply hitting the button mindlessly. If you go too slowly, of course, other people will be faster than you.
If you go too fast you will exceed the amount of stamina you have available and slow down. Rather than how fast you press the buttons defining speed, keeping a steady pace is more important. London 2012: The Official Video Game avoids being a complete button masher by making a few changes to the running feature, as well as similar sports. With that in mind, let’s take a deeper look at this particular game. Overall this is one of the better Olympic sports games out there, but that’s not saying much-in the past sports games that cover a wide variety of sports have been notoriously poor. If you want to have a look at what the stadium looked at without going to London, this game will take you there. The game features 40 of the sports shown in the real thing, in the exact locations they were held.
London 2012: The Official Video Game is a sports themed game that covers about what you would expect.
