London 2012

I approached London 2012 knowing it was a licensed Olympics cash-in from SEGA, and it plays exactly like one: a collection of mini-games strung together with minimal cohesion. You'll compete in events like archery, gymnastics, and sprinting, each with simplified controls designed for arcade-style quick play rather than simulation depth. The package works as a party game if you've got friends in the room and low expectations, but the novelty wears thin fast once you've seen what each event offers. The real problem isn't that it's shallow, it's that it's forgotten. No online community, no updates, no reason to return after the Olympic spirit fades. If you want sports mini-games, modern alternatives do this better. This is a time capsule of early-2010s licensed gaming, not a game to hunt down now.
