Is Athens 2004 (PS2) the BEST Olympics Game?

Athens 2004 has got to be one my favourite games. I don't know why Olympic games such as Beijing, London, and Tokyo have gone away from the button mashing style of gameplay used in Athens. I love the simplicity of winning by tapping X and O quicker than all your opponents. I hope you guys enjoy this one, if you do please leave a like and think about subscribing. Cheers guys.

Best of the Olympic games in my opinion. What do you reckon?

[@antwaansrevenge4107]

No, London 2012 is the best olympic game so far

[@MB93]

@@antwaansrevenge4107 London 2012 does seem to be quite a lot of people's favourite

[@johndosh6832]

Definitely london 2012. But Athens is good thou.

[@TomBlatildush]

@@antwaansrevenge4107 why? I've not played any but I really want to try one out! Should I go for 2012 or 2004?

[@MatMatFifa]

Beijigin 2008 the best

[@leonecindodiez7913]

Athens 2004 was (and still is) amazing. So much fun and excitment. I was so hyped when Beijing 2008 came out because I obviously thought that it would be and upgrade to the Athen 2004 perfection. I played Beijing for about 2 hours and never again. I still play some Athen today.

[@MB93]

Yeah I remember being pretty disappointed with the track events in Beijing. Definitely preferred the Athens gameplay

[@leonecindodiez7913]

@@MB93 Never tried London 2012. Was it good? Athens track events were perfect but we can not forget how fun were the swimming events and even weightlifting or gymnastics. Love it. Oh! And i have to mention the game from Konami "Track and field"

[@MB93]

@@leonecindodiez7913 it had some good events but I definitely preferred the track and field of Athens

[@erikk4555]

Yeah?! I had so much fun with my friends playing Beijing. I never played Athens tho. London was way worse than Beijing so if you didn't like Beijing you didn't miss any.

[@miloseviczarko45]

@@leonecindodiez7913 For me honestly, London was an improvement comparing to Athens, I just wish it had more countries like Athens had.

[@MB93]

That Japan CPU in the 400m race also broke the world record. I don't remember them being able to go that fast...

[@maldonhammer236]

Amazing game. I still play it from time to time and brings back so many funny memories.

[@BlueflagAlpha]

I would say yes, maybe because of my nostalgic memories but the game overall is fun

[@kauanvital3808]

I'm having so much fun playing this game on PSX2 emulator but I only play gymnastics

[@tyronebranch2946]

YES!!! The need to recreate it where we can have online play, multiple heats and add events. For instance add 4x100m and 4x400m relay in track friend, 4x100m Freestyle relay in Swimming.

[@ZolaMagic25]

International Track and Field 2000 was a great game to play

[@user-vw4hv4dj4e]

Really like that content🤘

[@viccoyers9015]

i miss this game so much my besst 100m wold record 9.41

[@silenceisloud8418]

Loved this great am currently looking for a new/old copy

[@technoog1807]

I remember playing the one before this International Track and Field on the ps1 in summer camp! Bruh we had so many fights over the 100 metres! Good memories tho 🤣

[@alexjordan1656]

The GOAT! Played it with friends on a multitap. Highly competitive!

[@og_sane]

It sure is. They should just make a new game with similar style, but with modern graphics! Tokyo 2020 olympics game is ruined with cartoonish style.

[@comradesobaka9811]

Please play more of this🙏🏻

NEW ATHENS VIDEO LETS GOOOOOOOO

[@alexallen8164]

I started to play the 2020 olympics game by sega. Ut is not the same anymore. I remember playing athens when i was a kid on it so much better than any olympic game. Loved the woman gymnastig where u had to use the arrow buttons. I like playd it everyday

[@matthewbraith0411]

They say no man can handle more than 4 copies of Athens 2004.

[@ILLALLU]

Yes.

[@709466ok]

Graphics were ahead of the time.

[@bl4315]

THIS IS THE GOAT OLYMPIC GAME! NO CAP! AM I BLINDED BY NOSTALGIA? YES! DOES THAT MAKE ME WRONG? NO! The ALL CAPS were just to reiterate my point. Didn't mean to shout.

[@CptWubba]

@MB93 How about a Rugby 08 video?

[@MB93]

I'd be up for it Webo. 1v1?

[@jasonpitts2040]

I used a bic lighter to easily beat 8 seconds in the hundred meter dash. Vibrate the curved side of the lighter over the buttons instead of tapping the buttons. Easy Peazy! lol

[@jahgol]

Yes

[@azgames2120]

👍👍👍

[@rizzla7588]

is the online multiplayer on this?

[@Metalheart-sg5jx]

Only by Watching this video my controller 🎮 broke 😂

[@mikic28]

Only bad thing about this game is that you have to repeat the X+O buttons fucksmashing mechanic in too many disciplines

[@Tubeite]

The swimming events should be called drowning events. Absolute nightmare with button mash mechanics.

[@miloseviczarko45]

@@Tubeite Well agree. On PC I had to put I and P as the buttons in order to be close to the Action button which I put on Enter, because in swimming while mashing those buttons, you have to mash and Action button when "Breathe!" appears.

[@pauldupon6125]

Definitely.

Sidney 2000

[@stephenwilliams7200]

Great one. I liked how you went to the rounds and built up your Olympian

[@miloseviczarko45]

Sydney was great also. I just wish it had more events, but I understand why it had only 12 events because at the time it was released, it wasn't still possible to make this...

[@miloseviczarko45]

Too bad that the PC version doesn't contain Floor Exercise, Beam and Show Jumping.

[@kauanvital3808]

You can play it throught PSX2 emulator. This is how I do :)
