    Featuring deep swing mechanics and incredibly detailed courses, EA Sports PGA Tour sets a new gold standard for golf games. The title is every bit as deep as one wants it to be, with RPG elements that encourage replayability and self-improvement.

    While it’s hard to ignore some of the gameplay issues (some of which EA has promised to address as of this writing), the overall experience of EA Sports PGA Tour is very impressive as far as golf games go. The graphics and audio are top notch, as is the golfer creation and the wide range of options available. This game is a sim and not a super easy game, but the developers clearly wanted a wide range of players to be able to enjoy it with the assistance features, and it does a pretty good job of that. Combine this with the huge amount of content and the many ways you can use it, and you have an experience that, despite some stumbles, is near the top of its class. If you’re looking for an immersive golf experience, look no further.

    A technically solid game that has some pretty glaring issues with presentation, I still found myself going back to play round after round. It's challenging and rewarding, even if it's not the best entry in the long history of golf titles.
  4. As of today, EA Sports PGA Tour is a very solid starting point for the franchise, and one that allows EA Sports to get back in the game.

    There's a good golf game hiding in EA Sports PGA Tour. The litany of courses is enough to entice fans of the sport, while the roster of pro golfers is amplified by a presentation that looks gorgeous even if the TV-style broadcast feels excessive. However, the imprecise controls make one hope that the upcoming three-click system will make the gameplay more palatable, since everything else related to the actual sport does a great job of trying to help you understand how to perfect shots. Although PGA Tour 2K23 is the better golf game this time around, there is a good base to work with here. Hopefully EA's future iteration can fix the issues to make this a contender for best pro golf simulation on the PC.

    Following nearly a decade-long retreat, EA Sports PGA Tour has returned. But instead of attempting to beat its competitor with a decade and a half of honed experience, the game often focuses on flash. The 30 courses here all look beautiful and lifelike, while the golfers all mug convincingly after bungling a nine-foot putt. But essentials like smooth swinging and the ability to customize a competition are missing at launch.

    EA Sports PGA Tour is an absolutely beautiful and immersive golf game with a very realistic feel. The game can be quite demanding on even some of the better systems, so PC users should be forewarned to check the requirements and be ready to turn down graphic settings. It is a challenging game, but still a lot of fun and is a great foundation for players to become better with the ability to see true growth happening as they continue to practice, as long as the player has enough patience to get there.

    As a PC player golf games can be hard to come by, especially fun golf games.

    We're often stuck with some dumb ported controls that are suitable for controlers when all we want is the classic 3-click system.

    Well, look no further, this game has exactly that! The classic 3-click control scheme of days past, much, much better than 2k23's crazy 3-click system, just simple fun!

    I haven't played a golf game since TIger Woods 07 but this is awesome! Tons of courses, great graphics, great commentary, just a nice quiet break from other games. It's just golf man.

    Yes there are some flaws like no stormy weather, you don't see the other players tee off, but you have local Multiplayer which is nice!

    I just like this game, it just resonates with me, and golf games with the classic mechanics are so far in between that this was just a no brainer.

    Some of the most fun sports gaming on PC I had in a long while.

    There are no tutorials, no practice range, no replays, no female players despite presence of she/her pronouns, the mouse cursor will randomlyThere are no tutorials, no practice range, no replays, no female players despite presence of she/her pronouns, the mouse cursor will randomly appear on the screen taking focus from the controller, keys cannot be reconfigured and neither can the controller beyond choosing left/right stick for shots with PS prompts being shown when using Xbox controller. Terrible 4K performance, sluggish UI and poor design decisions like having to exit career mode to upgrade or change anything. It plays better at 1440p but be prepared for micro stutters that ruin your swing.. It’s just another cack handed port .Not worth £60 in this state, I suggest you stick with the imperfect 2K games.

    Career mode is always online? What trash is this? The overall game is ok, but made with fairly common features. Nothing new here. Looks good though.
