Summer Challenge (Genesis)
|
#10 |  | The slowness of the graphics and unresponsive controls make this odd selection of events pretty bad. They tried something different with the graphics, unfortunately it's a miss. |
Olympic Summer Games (SNES)
|
#9 |  | Bland and painfully generic presentation and gameplay. The events are just boring and there's nothing unique about it other than the pre-rendered graphics. It is easily forgotten. |
Olympic Gold (Genesis)
|
#8 |  | With the choice of country having an impact on how the game plays I would expect more character in the presentation but ultimately it is a mediocre game with great graphics and confusing controls. Make sure to read the manual before playing. I have never successfully pole vaulted. |
Summer Games (Master System)
|
#7 |  | What is there is good however it needs to have more events for it to be worthwhile. |
Track & Field II (NES)
|
#6 |  | There are plenty of improvements over it's predecessor however the unintuitive controls and increased complexity make this a more difficult game to recommend. |
Track Meet (Game Boy)
|
#5 |  | The button usage and competing opponents give Track Meet a unique play style however the actual events are just okay. Be careful about damaging your Gameboy with the button pressing. |
Track & Field (NES)
|
#4 |  | Despite it's issues, Track & Field is fun and addictive. Use an arcade stick if you have one as it makes the button pressing easier. |
Track & Field (Game Boy)
|
#3 |  | The events are good and the added instructions before each are a great addition however you might break your Gameboy playing this game. With no joystick available, there's no way of mitigating the button mashing you need to do and it is intense. |
World Sports Competition (TG16)
|
#2 |  | The best part about it is the control options that make this a fun and casual party game. Unfortunately, it also has some very annoying presentation elements. |
Capcom's Gold Medal Challenge '92 (NES)
|
#1 |  | With charming graphics and characters and the ability to play with 8 friends this is an excellent party game assuming you're okay with the required button mashing. Some of the longer events are a bit too exhausting. |
