PGA European Tour Golf - N64

OK. It’s a golf game. It’s a sequel. You’d be a fool for thinking this title is going to be original. It’s not. Although it has to be said that doesn’t make it a bad game. If you like golf, you’re gonna like this.

Yes, the graphics are green. Yes, the bunkers are white. Yes, the players wear boring clothes. But none of that matters here, right? It’s golf. Since there is little to improve on with graphics, it appears that motion capture has “captured” the focus of the developers; it has been much improved. However, this appears to be at the expense of the physics within the game. This white, plastic round thing stops as if it’s hit a brick wall.

PGA consists of a number of recognised courses throughout Europe. Some can be played from the off. Others need to be accessed through extensive playing. After all this is a game with eighteen holes.

Although lacking in originality, this will be an enjoyable experience for anyone with a keen eye for golf.
