"Frustrating" would best describe it...Sep 01, 2006
By tuwetu i like golf video games. they're addictive. so, i've played quite a few in my day. i was really looking forward to this one as it seemed like something different. i guess i'll just list my frustrations by bullet-point.
cons:
- overhead map of the course is a complete waste. i like to zoom in and look at the whole course. you can't do that here. you get a small map of the whole course, so small, you can't even see where the beginning tee is and the hole. i don't understand why this feature is so poor when it's almost a standard component of any golf game.
- putting. the grids are really ineffective at helping you gauge the slopes of the green. i can barely get par most of the time cause when i putt it's like russian roulette as to where it might dip or turn away.
- totally crappy player design. there's like, 6 people you can choose from. you can change the shirts color and pants color. whoopie!? <---sarcasm.
- to get maximum power, you have to push both thumbsticks to the right then left. a fraction of a fraction of a movement makes the ball slice or barely go the full distance. so it's better just to take a normal stroke and not risk the catastrophe which can potentially and often happens.
- no music...barely birds chirping...could had SOME option. it's like sitting in a quiet room playing this game.
- winning is CRAZY hard. the AI is pretty good even on 'beginner.'
pros:
- decent graphics.
- large selection of courses.
- good selection of modes: career, tournaments, individual play.
- ummm...the commentators aren't too annoying.
that's about all. i wanted to love it like my own but it drove me slightly insaner than i already was.
