Reception [ edit ]
London 2012 received "mixed or average reviews" on all platforms according to the review aggregation website Metacritic .[16] [18] [17] [19]
Chris Schilling of IGN said of the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions that "Sega's celebration of the year's biggest sporting event is better than you might expect." In his opinion, the events of both versions would not hold up too well in the long term, but that is not really what an Olympics game is about. He praised the online and offline multiplayer mode.[8] [9] GameStar London 2012 . They also mentioned that the gameplay of the events would not be different from each other and that the AI [20]
The Digital Fix gave the PS3 version seven out of ten and said it was "a fine example of an Olympics type game. The presentation is excellent, the events are more varied than you might expect and the subtleties of controls mean you'll have a wonderful time as you begin any experience with the game."[21] Metro [15] Digital Spy [14]
The game held the top spot of the UK All Format chart for three weeks following its release.[22] [23] [24]
