The Golf Club (PS4/XB One/PC)

It had a 25% discount on PSN couple of weeks back, was down to about ?21 something, I'll bite when that discount is 50%.

Glad they're updating and improving it.

For me as an ex box gamer it's what I've been waiting for for over ten years, links 2004 on the original xbox was my favourite golf game ever, and this is very similar. The course creation software is very capable of providing some absolutely cracking courses in the right hands and literally ensures that there's 1000's of original and real life recreations to try out.
I love it.

If you're a PS+ member it's now discounted to ?11.59: https://store.sonyentertainmentnetwo...EGOLFCLUBHBSTU

Edit: Having now purchased it and played 18 holes I'd say it was worth a purchase at that price. It's actually nice not to have all the EA crap getting in the way of playing a round of golf.

Guys, you gotta buy it at that price!

This is now down to ?10.43 with PS+ and I must say, I'm enjoying it immensely!

Although sort of a fan of golf games, I never really got on with the Tiger Woods series as I didn't like being able to spin the ball in mid-air - the games always felt a little soulless to me. Although saying that, my all-time favourite was Mario Golf 64 and although this did have power shots, I felt the ball physics were more accurate and also more fun than in Tiger Woods!

This really strips the golf game down into, well, playing golf. It's not for everyone but if you like the more 'realistic' side of golf games it's definitely worth a shot.

The missus was chasing me for a golf game, at 30 squids this is too expensive. Now it's 11, I will consider it! Hopefully they'll add camera and move support at some stage.

I'm glad they've done well enough to merit a retail release as I think it's a great game. I play it online quite a lot with a mate of mine and we have quite a bit of fun with it. Was reading about the season mode and thought it was gong to be part of one of their upgrades but looks more like paid DLC now. Not to worry, I'll probably just buy the digital version rather than buying the retail version though.
