Title
Oh god, not more of this. It's got new nonathletic sports like shooting clay pigeons, swimming and archery which are well-reflected in precision-crucial button and bar timings - but it is again a treacherous button-mashing affair no human being can reasonably compete with. Triple jump, weight-lifting, and pole jump in particular will tear your fingers apart. This shit ain't fun, it's murder and the difficulty overwhelmingly brings the game's prospects down. Probably the greatest thing it does is that it accurately portrays the frustrations and hardship of lifting weights!

I literally don't see how ANYONE can beat pole vaulting.

If you liked Hyper Olympic, then you will like Hyper Olympic '84. Almost identical in feel and appearance, a host of different sports await your frantic two button bashing antics.
