LINKS ..... a long running Golf series finally came to the xbox. sounds exciting? WELL IT SHOULD. this game rocks. pure fun and great visuals and models.
Graphics 8/10
solid visuals. great enviroments. if u are on a sharp embankment exposing alot of rough the framrate drops to literally 15 frames LOL. but its rare enough to not bother.
Gameplay 7/10
game play is solid. takes a while to get used to the A skill level. in A skill level u must learn to hit the ball and judge distance and what not WITHOUT ant meters/gauges. it sounds crazy and trust me it is at first but you can easily get a hang of it. SOOOOO many unlockable things. including clothes, players, clubs, diff ball types, courses, and more. also if you sit at the tee for a while and dont move eventually some animals will come on the screen. its funny. imagine big ass black bears walking across the course while hitting.
Control 9/10
if u like outlaw golf......@$!* you!!!!!!!! hahah jk. but that game blowed to me. links is so much better. sporting easier ball hitting , sensitive putting, and the awesome flop shot!!! after probably 30 min of playing you will have it down.
Sound 9/10
sound is awesome. to me..... the audience sounds great, ambient bird chirping and woodpecker crap sounds great, wind rain, everything sounds great. comentary sucks though but i dont count that, i just turn it off. you can also import music to play . muwahahaha.
Multiplayer 10/10
SOOO MUCH FUN!!!!! play on live and u dont have to wait to hit the ball. u all play simultaneously. u see the color streaks representing other players hitting their ball. tournaments like crazy too all around the world. (mostly america and europe.)
DEFINITELY DONT MISS THIS GAME.
