Real World Golf Review
May 8, 2006 by Christian Costa by Christian Costa - May 8, 2006 DISCLAIMER: If you are under the age of 17 or are easily offended by written words then please do not read this review. Seriously, I speak the truth. In a very vague, curse word, sexually implied, pot head/drunkard filled way. Real World Golf is the game you wanted as a kid. Well not so much the golf part just the moveable pieces that move your character on screen. Like you could use with Mortal Kombat so you can feel cool. Well, Real World Golf delivers that feeling but playing golf! Too bad golf isn’t as fun as Happy Gilmore made it out to be. This game is still fun just not in a breaking stuff type of way. The game is for any golf enthusiast that can’t make it to the green daily or has wife problems. It helps develop your putting game, your stroke, your drive, and playing in different climate and grounding scenarios. Definitely a fun, interesting, and drunk competition game! ZOMGWTFPWND What this game delivers in gameplay can be explained in a simple run on sentence. Imagine you getting a birthday card, opening it, getting a check for 1billion dollars, THEN a raptor riding ninja pops out of the card, fights like 50 cyborg-pirate ninjas, then goes and finds a hot chick, kills her boyfriend, kidnaps her, runs through a laser maze, chugs a red bull, flies up into space, kills Darth Vader, plays ping pong with Sephiroth, and gives you that really hot girl. Is that not the coolest run on sentence you have ever heard? Well that is how Real World Gold makes you feel when you hit that perfect swing. You get two gloves that attach to a motion censor, a mini nine-iron, and a foot pad that you step on to make decisions. The gloves are awkward and so is the nine iron for about a day, then you get the hang of it. It throws you right into the game with no tutorial. There is one you can choose, but this game was made for people who already know how to golf. You can choose from over ten different courses. Play all eighteen holes or the front nine or back nine. Choose from a course with a lot of woods, a lot of bunkers, it raining, or it being windy. This game really does push golfing to the edge with you being able to change clubs at any time. The only problem I have with the gameplay is that the announcer will comment on EVERY little mess up you do. Sorry Mr. Announcer guy BUT WE DON’T CARE!!!! I don’t want to hear it when I get 6 over par -_-. Ok so the game doesn’t have the best graphics but you won’t even care. It looks like any other PS2 game just not as smooth. Tiger Woods does beat it out in every way for a golf game’s graphics but the graphics of a hands on golf game don’t even matter! I'm going to punch that announcer No seriously, I would punch that guy if I could. He really is one of the more annoying fictitious characters I have ever encountered. Not so much Jar Jar Binks like but more of an "I play World of Warcraft more than you" type of guy. Besides the announcer, the music for the load screen is very generic for a golf game. It sounds really familiar. When it rains it sounds like it is raining. You can hear birds chirping, your ball *thunk* when it hits a tree, etc. They are life like and are expected. It’s just that announcer I have a problem with. When you hit that "Perfect Swing" as an amateur you will smile! You will then hit 10 Perfect Swings in a row! Once you get into your groove for the game it goes by easy. Get into a rut and your golf game goes downhill big time. The game is still fun through that rut because the whole time you are hitting the ball as hard as ever and angling your putts just to win! The only problem is when you land in the bunker (sand trap) and go to throw the golf club but you take another really pathetic swing instead. That can really get on your nerves. Also throwing your arm out on a 123% swing makes you feel really happy but your arm really hurt! The game is awesome either way. It’s also a little annoying to switch gloves with everyone while playing to multiplayer. With up to four people it can take forever for the gloves to get back to you. Regardless this game owns! Learn the perfect stance and it will get you girls! I wish Besides Time Crisis I can’t imagine a game helping you with your senses or form. I can play a game of golf all day and learn exactly the same thing I do from this game. Except I can drink as much as I want at my apartment and at a golf course I have to pay four bucks for one beer. It has already helped my stance and my drive. My putting game will forever be crap though. Not even the holy Chubbs can help me with that.
It owns your face Exactly what the title reads. You can’t pick a better hands on game out there. Tiger Woods is good for people who like to play golf with a controller. Real World Golf is for people who like to actually golf. If you want a great drunk game, play this! Hold the perfect stance and swing, then fall… Get the game, it is for any golf enthusiasts and people who like to play a good game period. For once Tim you didn’t send me a crappy game! Thanks. |
