Hey Guys now iam back with a brand new game "Beijing 2008" is a game you’ve played before in a variety of guises, coming under the terrifying banner of athletics titles. There are 38 events in this game
For initial 10, 20, 40 seconds you will not know anything what is going on. The core events, the biggies like the 100 meters, the 110m hurdles and to a lesser extent the 1500 meters, are quick-fire bursts of pure adrenaline, over before you know it – and before you notice the flap of soggy skin that detaches itself from your hand. The crux of the game hasn’t changed since early athletics games like Track & Field.But my dear friend you must be able to push buttons rapidly because, most of the events require you to hit alternate buttons as fast as you can to build up and maintain speed or power. It’s far from complicated. The challenge stems from trying to keep it up. Like the real thing, you’ll find events are initially rock hard, but with a little work, you’ll find your groove and start to rise through the medals.
Your first port of call is unsurprisingly, the Training mode which gives you a run-through of the 38 events. Track events are straightforward enough to get the hang of. Hammer up Sprint events as fast as possible, with variation coming in the endurance races, management of your runner’s stamina is the main thing to win. The one exception to this formula is in the 110 meter hurdles, where the view is shifted to a chase-cam and another button makes your sprinter negotiate hurdles. The only real innovation comes at the beginning and end of a sprint. Here you fill a power bar which must be held at a level just beneath a critical red area. This launches your sprinter from the blocks – hit this area too soon and it’s a false start; too late and you’re left trailing the field. At the end of your sprint, the same button makes your athlete duck for the finishing line, while another has him celebrating at the line.
Field events, meanwhile, pack in more variety. Long jump and triple jump have you pumping up speed down the runway before timing your launch (and the subsequent steps in the triple). The longer you hold the button down the higher your launch angle – 45 degrees is the optimum. Elsewhere, chucking events – shotput, hammer, discus and javelin – have you rotating before hitting “throw” at just the right moment to determine the angle (for the first three), or sprinting before aiming to get the right angle of flight (for the javelin). Finally the two jumping events, the high jump and pole vault, have you timing button presses and speeding down a runway and hitting jump at the right moment, respectively.
It all works very well in the main. Things start to unravel somewhat in the less prestigious events, as the controls start to veer from accessible and simple to awkward and frustrating. Canoeing, for example, is infuriating. You’re supposed to navigate a course of gates in the lowest time, battling against a raging tide all the way. It proves to be the toughest challenge in the game because of a control method that’s like trying to pat your head and rub your stomach at the same time.
And it’s hard to fathom why some sports have even been included in the first place. Judo, for instance, is tricky to follow at the best of times, and the tutorial for those not in the know is rubbish. It took a good ten defeats before we caught on to what was happening. Essentially you have to very quickly match the arrows that flash up on screen with directional presses. Eventually this works your participant into an advantageous position from which you can throw or choke your opponent, so you’re supposed to hit a button until the movie is initiated. It all feels totally random and aimless – it doesn’t feel as though there is any technique involved at all, and the rules of the sport just seem a little too obscure to be included in the game in place of something like rowing.
The structure of the game lends itself perfectly to quick-fire match-ups between mates. Whether it’s a simple race to see who’s the better button masher, or who can achieve the faster/higher/stronger personal best, Beijing 2008’s simplicity (for the most part) allows for largely uncomplicated contests, and perhaps its greatest strength lies in its ‘just one more go’ spirit. Of course, there’s always the danger of your hands giving out long before your interest wanes.
This simplicity is also one of its key shortcomings. Once you’ve completed the Olympics mode, that’s it save for blister comparisons. The setup is simple: you play through a number of competition days with the aim of meeting and beating a requirement; qualify for three finals, say, or finish fourth in at least four events. These are broken up with special challenge days which give you the opportunity to stack up points to spend on improving your team’s stamina, speed, power and the like. Points also allow you to minimise your team’s fatigue levels, so it might be wiser to ski challenge days and rest between competitions. This team management aspect is something we would love to have seen developed. It could have been a cool new slant to add some real depth to the game. As it is we have the flimsiest of ‘career’ modes which is a vaguely themed sequence of events and nothing more. Beijing 2008 is good value. Track and field events are fun, but there’s not much under the surface.
