Athens 2004

Is the card screwed ? Will i need to buy a new one ?

I think you might need to.

Here's a tip to win in the swimming and the 100m -- use the bottom of a cigarette lighter. Rest it between the buttons before the start of the event, and then jiggle it left and right like crazy. Works unreal, but you can expect to go through yr controllers quicker.

LOL - we came up with the exact same method - only way to get amongst the medals. I recommend the small lighters.

Yeah I would only recommend this game to people who have a multitap and 4 people willing to play - thats when this game really comes into its own. As a single player game its very average.

I've had the same memory card for over 2 yrs...

Same, but I hardly use my PS2 these days.

Easily the best way to play is against 3 opponents. Ah so much fun that was.
The lighter works a treat. If anyone can beat 7.89 for the 100m.

My best is 10.01

Can anyone beat 9.32m for long jump?

use half a pingo pong ball or a tea spoon and slide it across the controller- thats how I do it! Not going to buy Athens 2004, these games haven't changed much since the Track and Field days on NES.

How many events is on the game and are their any real athletes? Or do you just say pick Aus and do events with an unnamed athlete?

Would it be a good multiplayer rental game?

Cheers

Not much better than Summer Games on the Commodore 64.

Used to have fun with that game, although, my brother used to always win in Track and Field, plus the Pole Vault.
