Product Description:

Amazon.com Review:
The official computer game of the 2000 Olympics, Sydney 2000 resorts to the gameplay of the 1983 arcade game Track and Field. Players "power" their virtual athletes by hammering on two keys in an alternating sequence as fast as possible, with the manipulation of a third key required at certain times to perform a particular action. Unfortunately, the novelty here wears off pretty darn quick, especially considering that Summer Games and Summer Games 2 (Commodore 64 games from the mid 1980s) had more events and deeper gameplay.
While not all of Sydney 2000's 12 events use this tedious control system, the few that don't feature similarly shallow-as-a-puddle gameplay. What's worse, in order to make it to the Games in Olympic mode, players must "train" their team in a series of tiresome Virtual Gym exercises, which involve--you guessed it--lots and lots of keyboard-mashing. Thankfully, Sydney 2000's arcade and coaching modes allow players to jump right into any event. You won't get to experience the game's Olympic fanfare, but you'll probably save yourself from a repetitive stress injury. --Joe Hon
Pros: - Makes for an easy-to-pick-up multiplayer game
- TV-style coverage includes replays shown from multiple camera angles
Cons: - Shallow gameplay involves little more than mindless keyboard mashing
- Not much fun as a single-player gaming experience

This game did not meet my expectations. The graphics are fairly detailed, although the people can look awkward at times, and they never show any expression, plus the team uniforms look nothing like they're supposed to. Doing repeated exercises can get tiring, and I didn't like that you have to lose your morale if you mess up on one thing. I tried to enter diving without any morale - big mistake. I got second place, and did not qualify, while second placers usually qualify. I know that in games and ... Read More

The game is pretty easy and fun. If you are into track and field this game can be really exciting. The one thing I would change about the game is that it is wayyy too easy. They need to make you not do phenominal in all the events. For example, in the 100 meter dash I ran an 8.80 in arcade mode. That is just wayy too easy. Other than that I think the game is pretty fun.
Here's a list of my PR's, to go fast, use one hand and 2 fingers and hit both of them on the keypad at the same time.

I managed to buy a used copy of Sydney 2000, and I was pleased and disappointed at the same time. This game has some good sides, but a lot, and I mean, A LOT of bad sides to it.
First, the bad sides. Start with the soundtrack to this. Where is the Olympic Fanfare and Theme!? Where is it? I couldn't even hear the Fanfare and Theme. Instead, you've got this trumpet fanfare that sounds like a corny hymn from a cheesy royal comedy! I only laugh at that, not because it's hilarious, but because ... Read More

So, I am not so interested in sports ( pc games ), but I wanted to pick this up just to try it ( and my friends pushed me; they said: yes, sports games can be good! ). So, I tried this first time with my friends, and how this was fun! Trying to compete each others records is really fun! Even if you have only one friend to play with. Time flies, and the events doesn't seem bad, as they're simple. But then my friends left and I continued on practising. Immediately it stroke like a million volts: "What's ... Read More
