Overview of swimming in video games

For years, sports such as soccer, baseball, soccer and hockey have released video games every year with improved graphics, player and team updates and new features. However, for sports such as swimming and diving, video games based on the Olympic Games of the year only appear every four years.

Known games that have appeared in the past include the 2008, 2012, and 2020 Olympics. Swimming and diving may not be a major part of the game as it is the Olympics, but both are playable events. On your PC or console.

Of the 2008, 2012 and 2020 games, I personally think the 2012 game seems to be the most realistic and most enjoyable. The 2008 and 2012 games are very similar in terms of graphics and gameplay, but the 2012 edition refines Sega, which helped publish and develop the three games, making the game look smoother. It became attractive to.

In the case of Tokyo 2020 Sega We took a different approach and made the athlete look like a cartoon, so you can also customize and boost the stats of the characters you created in the game, which gives you a loss of realism. Still, it’s a fun game to test all the new Olympic events coming in 2021.

Overall, the events represented by each of the three games aren’t exactly the same as the events of the year, but Sega confirms that there are different events that people can choose to play. By swimming and diving in all three games, I think the sport is pretty good. When making various strokes such as freestyle and butterfly, swimming Olympians requires a lot of button mashing and triggering.

When it comes to diving, it was interesting to see how Sega worked on how to express the sport and still get people to play it. The event continues just like the Olympics and regular competitions. Each round gives you the opportunity to choose a dive of different difficulty. To get a good score, you need to use one of the controller sticks to stick the landing by pressing the buttons and important parts that appear on the screen. However, if you diver too early or too late, or if you don’t get the timing right, you can hurt your stomach.

Maybe it’s a multiplayer game while we’re still in this pandemic, so it might be a fun idea to let some of your friends play with you. Therefore, you and your friends can know who is the best swimmer and diver for the time being during the quarantine.

One of the things I wanted in an Olympic video game was for Sega to be like Entertainment Arts (EA). EA uses real-life athlete scans to implement in your game to create a more realistic game.

It’s really great to play Olympic video games and meet athletes like Usain Bolt, Michael Phelps and Katie Ledecky. As creators take it one step further and add signature celebrations and Mannerism before the race, the game will bring more realism and improve the player experience.
