Beijing 2008

Is it good then?

Yeh its great, really nice presentation and such a varied amount of events, its even got stuff like table tennis in it!

My arms aching this morning, i wasnt able to get past 10.78 on the 100 metres, so its not instantly a case of people scoring world records, the only thing we came anywhere near was my daughter breaking the olympic record on the high jump, but missed out on the world record.

The achievements will not be easy for this.

Cool sounds good.

For running do you jog the analogue stick, or use the buttons? (or both?)

Quite interesting watching Thesnipergecko's video of this:

Just scared about getting it and ruining my pads

 

[Andybtsn]

Gonna order it and go halves with the gf..

32.49 is a good price.

10 ocuker's doing the 100m would be brilliant, will look at a rental first though

 

[dannyjo22]

Still no reviews?

 

[Surfer]

ultimate button basher? its a toss-up between Daley Thompsons Decathlon vs Hypersports.

maybe add in Epyx Summer/Winter Games series for variety

 

[dannyjo22]

Ordered it couldn't wait any longer for reviews and I had loads of recommendation credit to use up anyway

I think the ps3 pad would definety be easier than on the 360, im miles away from the records on these.

 

[Dan7]

Yeah, I thought about getting the 360 version for the achievements, but then I considered the pad and went for the PS3 copy ;o

 

[daveydave]

haha this sounds awesome, there are a few drinking games you can play with olympic style games, good craic before a night out

 

[Worthy]

Fnar! 23rd in the world at discus on the 360 version. Only tried that and 100m so far. My mam is better than me at 100m :/

 

[Metalface Mark]

What did you get at the 100m? My bests 10.52sec

 

[dannyjo22]

If the 100m is just waggling the analogue stick I will sub 10's no problem. I have a method

 

[RizL4]

9.79 my best on 100m

 

[drunken fool]

best i have on 100 at the moment is 10.0x someing. I just need to get the start sorted and i will be away!

[Metalface Mark]

The problem with waggling, it dosent seem to take properly.

And your arm dies after 1 event. I prefer the 1 button bash of the old school as i have a turbo finger but when it comes to 2 buttons i'm pants
