The courses look OK.. Everything else is under optimized, monetized or inconsistent.
- it doesn't matter what your lie is.. fairway, 1st cut, 2nd bunker.. Just go under the the pin. There is no extra skill in being in a difficult lie and creating a shot. It just the same as the fairway.
- putting isn't right.. and the system to simulate friction on the greens is out of whack.. the ball rolling everywhere and then off of the green is a to often. Every green isn't #16 @Augusta.
- Character creation is non-existant or I couldn't find it or I had to make an account and didn't want to do that. I played with some stock dude named "Pro Golfer".
- The menus are slow and often get interjected with ads for you to buy in-game currency.
- I won a tournament @Sawgrass and really didn't win the much. I could only buy a new driver and won a putter. Winning a tournament should be a big deal..
- The progression systems are there.. but I couldn't tell. Between the equipment and progression you can't feel a difference into investment into either.
- I thought this would be a return to form from Tiger Woods 2004 on PS2..
