There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Other things...I like the shorter waits between holes. There's almost no load time anymore going to the next hole. One thing I wish they'd improve is having more game modes. For example, I wish there was a Practice Mode where you just hit on the Driving Range to practice shots or a practice putting green. Instead the only way I've found to get to a "driving range" is to play through the Prologue and intro stuff until you can pick that option.
I haven't tried the career mode yet so can't comment on that yet, but I will, and may update this review when I have a chance.
All in all, this game isn't perfect, but it is FAR from dismal like many reviewers have made it seem. Granted maybe it sucked when it first came out in 2015, but I can tell you that now in 2017, the game is pretty damn awesome. If you love golf and have been on the fence about getting this game as I was, get it!! It is a fantastic game and is boatloads of fun for anyone that loves golf, the PGA Tour, and Golf Channel.
Here's the things you need to know before buying - The create a character is as plain as it was back in 2008. Literally, 8 faces to choose from and then you practically just change the hair, hair color and eye color then determine if you're Muscular, Normal or Fat then height Tall, Medium, Short. Better creatable characters would be nice but this is a golf game, not create a good looking dude/female.
Career Mode is slimmed down, no calendar, just click and play type career. It still shows rankings and keeps your career statistics which is good enough for me. Cool feature no one is talking about is instead of playing all 18 holes, they have a 'Highlight mode' where you play about six holes and they pick the best holes of that course then simulate the rest of your rest based on your player's attributes. Pretty cool.
The course graphics are great, the created courses are actually really awesome. The ship (Battlefield4) course is all Par-3 and awesome and the course built in the Grand Canyon reminds you of the old days of The Predator. Yeah, that means great stuff.
Not many playable characters shouldn't resist you from buying as you should be creating your own anyhow. Courses will come with DLC, whether it's free or purchased. Still plenty to do here and the online play has been flawless for me so far. Daily Tournaments and some great Head 2 Head action. Make your own decision but try not to take some of these reviews into account. It's golf and without all the additional features and playable characters, still worth owning.
Pros:
- No wait time between holes. Finish a 18 hole course around 30 min.
- 19 great and wide variety of courses with newest update 1.09 (my tiger woods 12 game had around 12 courses with more available for purchase)
- Graphics on my 4k tv (no I don't have the PRO ps4) made some believe I was watching golf on TV because the graphics were that good.
- Game modes are also available like 4 ball, alternate shot, best ball. These were not available right away they were part of an update.
- More golfers like Dustin Johnson have been added for more variety.
- The night club challenge offers some fun challenges testing your skills.
Negatives
- Comments on course from commentators can be wrong. E.g. ball can be going at green and they will say that it's a bad shot and heading for rough. Or a putt that they say that you should lag it up close and go for two but when you lag it up they say it was a misread and a bad putt.
- the game seems to still lack some customization options. I don't see any options for weather conditions or to change how the career mode field shoots.
- I wish you could play the night club challenge courses as a regular golf course!

円安の影響もあってか、今回は(15年9月現在)価格が約8500円で、前作までは約5000円前後で買えていたので躊躇しましたが、結果的には買って良かったと思います。
グラフィックはPS4だけあって綺麗です。ただ、せっかくこの美しさなのに、キャラを細かくエディットできないのは残念です。何通りか用意されているプリセットの組み合わせで、自分が好きな顔や背格好をザックリと作り上げる感じです。そして、コスチュームはこれまでだと着用するシャツやズボンによって能力が数ポイントアップするようなブーストアイテムになってたので、能力を上げたいために気に入らない服を身につける必要がありましたが、今回はそういうことがなくなって、自由に好きなコスチュームを着せ替えできます。しかし、これもコスチュームの種類や色が激減しており、バリエーションが少なく感じました。
ただし、上記の要素はゴルフゲームとしての面白さにさほど影響しませんので、言うほどデメリットではないと思います。
操作方法はこれまで同様、左アナログスティックを下→上と倒すことで実際のスイングする感覚をうまくデフォルメしています。昔ながらのテイクバック、パワー決定、インパクトと3回ボタンを押してショットする3clickモードもありますので、みんなのG○LF式が好きな方はそれがいいかも知れません。
またゲーム中にボールの落下点をリアルタイムで表示するか、風の強さを固定するかランダムに変えるか、グリーンでボールの動きの目安を表示するか、ラフなどにボールがあるときライの長さでショットの勢いを減産するかどうか、などなど・・・初心者から廃人まで自分の実力や経験に合わせて、かなり事細かに設定できるので、自分がゲームシステムに合わせるのではなく、ゲームを自分の好みに調整できるところがいいと思います。簡単なら難しくすればいいですし、難しすぎてストレスなら許せる範囲で簡単なほうに調整すればいいですから。
コースは12コースほど提供されるようです。前作は最初から20コース入ってたので、少なく感じてしまいますが、ひょっとしたらDLCでまた増えるかも知れませんし、来年もナンバリング新作が出るでしょうから、それまで遊べるだけのボリュームは現時点ですでにあると思います。
ほかにはミニゲームとして、やり込み要素たっぷりのNIGHT CLUB CHALLENGEというモードがあり、それがかなり難しくて歯ごたえあります。
海外のレビューでは評価低めでしたが、個人的には今回も8500円分は充分楽しめそうですよ!? リアル系ゴルフゲームでは、もうPGA TOURシリーズが唯一無二のクオリティですから、好きな人は買う以外にありませんね(笑)
