Good & Promising but frustrating
You might be wondering why on earth I've even played this game. However my other half and I are into our golf, and are also on the look out for couch co-op games, so this seemed a no brainer. And in all fairness despite a few flaws, it's actually a good game.
Let's start with the negatives. The main flaw is the multiplayer mode, which is the main reason we bought this. To begin with, there is only 1 course available on multiplayer. You have to unlock the rest one single player mode, which takes forever (I'm still at it). Which is weird, as how you do in multiplayer has no effect on your single player rankings. The other issue with multiplayer is your can't create your own player in that mode. You can create one in single player & use it in multiplayer, but there's no direct creation in multiplayer. You also can't use multiple custom players if you're using numerous PSN accounts. The only other issue is that they've tried to throw rpg elements into the single player mode and it really isn't necessary. It's a golf game, after all.
Those criticisms aside, it's actually a very fun and quite accurate golf game. The courses are great looking and fairly challenging, and the different mode options are fairly fun too. The single player mode has lots to do and the character builder is very detailed.
If you're into golf and are looking for a fun game to play, I'd probably recommend this. As long as you can put up with the very Japanese style and the multiplayer niggles.
