International Athletics sprints on to AppStore
Published: May 26, 2009
Ghostlight have released their athletics game onto iPhone. A port of the the PSP and DS versions, the game sees you participating in all manner of track and field events. According to Ghostlight, the games controls have been specifically deisgned for the iPhone in mind, so those hoping for some good old button mashing may have to look elsewhere!
Graphically the game looks to have been built on the DS first and then upscaled. In motion the game’s Mo-Cap animation looks great, but in screens everything has blocky feel to it. International Athletics is out now for £5.99 ($9.99)
Features:
• Accurate representations of 11 events: 100m, Long Jump, Shot Put, High Jump, 400m, 110m Hurdles, Discus, Pole Vault, Javelin, 1500m, and Hammer
• Highly addictive and varied touch screen controls for frantic sprints, precision field events and strategic long distance events
• Superior character animation and competitive Artificial Intelligence
• Hugely detailed international stadiums, including venues in Canada, France, Japan, Spain and China
• Compete in Decathlon, Tournament and Quick Event modes
• Beat personal bests and world records, accumulate medals and earn trophies to unlock extra tournaments!
• Create your own customised male or female athlete with their own distinctive attributes
