More egregious is the lack of variety in his canned sayings. He has a hint of sarcasm in his voice that had my oldest daughter grinning on more than one occasion as he remarked on a particularly bad shot of mine. The voice announcing along with the game is pretty amusing in and of himself. That being said, the golfers themselves certainly do not look bad, as their animations are smooth and key to proper success when striking the ball.

As Robert noted in his preview for the PC version of the game, the courses are absolutely gorgeous, though the golfer models themselves do not hold up quite as well, standing out a bit from the photo-realistic backdrops. It is a far cry from what I was used to from other games of golf, but I do like it because it feels quick and accessible and certainly more natural.

The part of me that loves micro-managing strategy game armies really misses the gauges that tell me at what power and accuracy I am swinging, but there is something to be said for observing the subtleties of the animation and just getting a proper feel for the game. There were times I found myself running through holes very effectively, but then I would hit that one hole with a water hazard, mess up my shot and man – that round was effectively ruined by the time I pulled myself together. The thing is, you almost never get a perfect hit without any wiggle and there is almost always some breeze, so club choice is incredibly important. You can see distance to the cup and have an idea of how far your club will carry with a perfect strike on a windless day. You are reliant on the character’s animation to determine roughly how hard you are hitting it. Swinging for the fences at 100% power was easy enough. The swing mechanic was the first, most glaring thing after I installed The Golf Club and fired it up.
