Games

Game modes include practice, regular competition (where the player can select or deselect each event, for men and women), random events, Decathlon or Heptathlon and of course, the Olympics. While in previous games the Olympics were usually just a set of events, in Beijing 2008 they are much more complex, and feature a game where the player must complete a number of challenges each day with the difficulty level and number of necessary successes increasing progressively. While in the other modes there is a slight slowdown during the technical parts of the events, in Olympic the player must assign points to it, and trigger when required. The player also needs to assign points to other key areas, such as speed, technique or accuracy. Failing to reach the goal for the day forces the player to load the game and try again.

Bejeweled 2 continues PopCap's gem-matching game with four play modes, ten sci-fi backdrops, and new strategies to master. Once again players are challenged to create matches of three or more by swapping adjacent gems horizontally or vertically. Players advance levels and build their score until it is no longer possible to create a match. Bejeweled 2 introduces the ability to create two new gem types. Matching four produces a "power gem" that detonates if matched with similar gems. Creating five-gem matches forms a "hyper cube," which clears the entire board of the gem type it touches during a swap.
