This thread has been linked to the game 'Tiger woods PGA Tour 2003'.
Had this for a week or so now, the latest one. Not sure what year it is to be honest and can't be arsed to go downstairs and look.
Superb. Best golf game I've played on any system.
Doesn't have that stupid "press button to start swing. Press button to stop swing, try and not send it veering left or righ OH TOO BAD IT'S DONE JUST THAT!!!" control mechanism.
Only problem is I rule, have all the sponsorship I need, completed the world tour so have about $2,000,000 to spend on crap like earrings and wristbands.
Well worth getting, even if you don't like golf.
It's just a bloody good game.

2003 rocked muchly so i'm guessing 2004 does the same.
Would get it but I'll be picking up Links 2004 instead, it's got Live play which should intresting.
Real golf sucks balls, golf games however are really quite good.

Tilta are you going on LIVE in a bit?
Just got off Amped a minute ago, me thinks I shall be hitting the hay soon. Gotta get up early tomorrow because some tw@t from Telewest is coming round to fix my Broadband connection.
It's arcade golf. Fine if you wanna smash it down the middle and ram in birdie after birdie with no strategic input, but I want a deeper console golf game, a sim no less, and as luck would have it, 'Links 2004' is being released on Xbox in December.
There's no doubt it's a great game, but I think it's one where once you've got the trick of it, it loses fun factor pretty quickly.
best on multiplayer with an accompanying crate of beer.

Which is handy, because that's exactly what I do want.
If I want to spend hours busting my ass to try and get par etc, then I'll go take my clubs and play real golf.
However, if I want a not-impossible-chance of getting eagles and the very occasional hole-in-one, I'll play this ta very much.
And Links sucks, has done for years on the PC.
It's that same poxy
"Hit button to start swing/hit button at arc of swing/hit button again on tiny little dot to prevent it veering miles" if it's the same as the PC version.
Tiger Woods 2004 for me.

Shows how much you know about the Xbox version then doesn't it. It uses analog controls for the swing and each review I have read so far says that the aiming and swing system is superior to that of Tiger Woods 2004.
