Summary: Golf Simulation
Review: An outstanding golf simulation with a varity of swing choices. Personally, I recommend the realtime swing as the closest simulation of an actual golf swing with all the faults found in true golf swing inconsistentcies. As is the case with any simulation, various charts can be developed which make game scores unrealistically low compared to the actual game, even when played by the finest golfers in the world. This simulation, however, does provide a skill level of play which depends more on practice and feel for particular golf shots than can be found in the more mechanical click type simulated golf swings. This skill level is not for the faint of heart and will not be mastered in a few short hours of play.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Crash after Crash
Review: I have not been able to play the game once without having a problem with my computer crashing. I have tried this game on 3 different computers and experienced the same problem. The versions of the operating systems varied between the computers, but it did not make any difference.

The game play was good, but the crashes eliminated any fun.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Golf Sim but PC Tweaks Required
Review: I've been playing computer golf for over a decade, from "Mean 18", to all of the "Links" versions from Access (bought by Microsoft). This latest game is temperamental, and it does require some adjusting and experimenting with your PC settings to get the game running properly. You can find information at many "Links" websites, including Links Tour Forums, for tweaking your video card, etc. Also, virus scan software could be causing the other reviewer's crashes, if the vscan is not disabled before "Links" play. The game play and graphics are terrific once your system is adjusted. There are many free tournaments available each week from Microsoft "Online" Tours. You can play while online or offline (your choice), and you have a week to compete in many tournaments. This is a great non-violent game, that requires practice and patience. Many players use charts for various course conditions when chipping, putting, or driving. There are three wind conditions, and nine green conditions. Twenty courses come with the latest version of Links 2003, and many more are available as free online downloads. Get the game, get your graphics card adjusted, and have fun.
