    Not bad for a golf game. the story mode is cool; you can work your way up into the pro ranks. the putting is nicely done; challenging and not frustrating (a rare combo of golf games i find). This game would seriously rock with a few changes. some problems: 1)the characters and caddies are repetitive in what they say and do. i personally don"t like animee style characters either, but maybe Not bad for a golf game. the story mode is cool; you can work your way up into the pro ranks. the putting is nicely done; challenging and not frustrating (a rare combo of golf games i find). This game would seriously rock with a few changes. some problems: 1)the characters and caddies are repetitive in what they say and do. i personally don"t like animee style characters either, but maybe that"s just me. 2)when the characters swing the game sorta slows down. not a problem as far as gameplay goes, just doesn"t look that nice. 3) the music sux because it"s so repetitive. golf games need a good soundtrack since you spend quite a bit of time watching someone else play. overall though it's one of the best golf games i've played.… Expand

    It might not be as great as "Hot Shots Golf," but it's a phenomenal golf game nonetheless.

    It's got a great golf engine, loads of options, replay value, and offers a serious challenge without taking itself too seriously.

    . It blends fast gameplay, great graphics, and a variety of option to create perhaps the greatest golf outing to date.
