Summary: Good game.....for about 3 days.
Review: First of all, why do people review games and give 5 stars months before a game is released? Some reviewers haven't even played a demo.Anyway, I am a big Sid Meier/Will Wright fan and always expect great games from them. This game is average at best. This game is graphically pleasing, but there is no depth. At first I was surprised at how little documentation came with this game. The manual is tiny. However, I think it is because the game is so 1 dimensional. Yes, you can design a golf course and tend to a limited number of your sim golfers' needs. But, where is the replayability? Am I going to want to play this game again so I can have a 3rd hole with a dog leg left instead of a dog leg right? I don't think so. I guess I expected more strategy; something I could sink my teeth into. Very disappointing.

Summary: Read this, I have the FULL version!
Review: This game, is great! You hit it up with different kinds of places to go and do, and you can make your own golf courses, and making your private club great! You can have your own golfer that plays, and there is 10 different scales, and if you get 10 holes done, you can upgrade your hotals, theme parks, cart shops, and more! You can change other people, making them good looking, or a old lady! People can throw there golf clubs in the lake, or love your private golf club, and become a member, silver member, or even if your lucky, a GOLD MEMBER! Which you get a lot of money from! Not only do you get a regular mode, you get sandbox mode, is unlimited money! You can save your games for champanchips too! This game has it all!
Grapics/Looking Animation-No, not good for this kind of age, it's like Roller Coster Tycoon. 3/10
Fun-This game is FUN! 10/10
Gameplay/Movieplay-This lasts a long time, but not as much as other sim games. 8/10
Sound-Is great! I love the music in here! 9/10 Overall-A nother Maxis/EA game you NEED to get! 9/10, I give it 5 stars for amazon.com!

Summary: It's the Sims with a twist of golf...
Review: If you like sports, you'll like this game. If you liked the Sims and you like sports, you'll love this game. I'm not the biggest Sims fan, but this game can be played in many different ways. First of all, think of it as "Golf Tycoon". You're offered a basic golf design system and a budget and away you go. But that isn't all. You'll find that you take the role of the course pro and actually play the holes you design. Hey, it ain't Links Pro, but it is fun. Tournaments and pro challenges come after you've started to maintain a club membership base. Make some alterations to your course to make it suitable for pro play. Or, make it easier for non pro golfers. It's your course, so do what you want. Also, you have many different geographical locations to choose from, so the replay value is very good. With all the options and the way to play your course, this game will be yet another prize winner from two of PC gaming's legends, Sid Meier (Pirates, Railroad Tycoon, Civilization) and Will Wright (Sim City, Sim Tower, Sims). How can you lose with all these factors?

Summary: If you are married, get a divorce lawyer because this game..
Review: ...is electronic 'crack'. I am not joking. I enjoy the 'Sims' games but am not a giant fan of them; however, this game...? UNBELIEVABLE. I could not stop playing it the first 2 days I had it. I actually skipped 2 days of work (...cough cough... sick boss, sorry...) and played the he** out of it! I cannot wait to play the full version. The role playing elements are great, I can see that there will very likely be scenarios and specific challenges in addition to the career and 'tycoon' aspects of the game. This game Roxor!

Summary: A little bit of Rollercoaster tycoon and Sims
Review: I found this demo on my Hot Date CD and really enjoyed it. Mr. Meier has seemed to combine the fun parts of rollercoaster tycoon and the sims and even simcity. It all comes together and if you're like me you'll find yourself playing this short demo for hours. I'm looking forward to the game coming out next year. I think it will become a big hit!

Summary: How long will it be enjoyable???
Review: Yes, I played the demo as well and I thought it was great. However, I cannot really see what will make the full version so much better. Yes, you can build more holes, houses,.. but I am not really sure how long all of this is going to be interesting. Will there be scenarios like in Rollercoaster tycoon ???
I also found the management part to be a joke compared to other Sim games.
I also seem to be the only one who is not really that interested what all the people are talking all the time... Don't get me wrong, I still think it is a great game, I am just not sure if in the end it won't turn out to be one of these games that you play non-stop for 3 days, but then never touch again because you have seen everything there is.

Summary: Great golf game
Review: This is one truly good golf game, and sim game, for that matter. I downloaded the demo version and found it to be quite entertaining. You don't need to enjoy golf at all to enjoy this game, as I am HORRIBLE at real golf, but thoroughly enjoyed this software. It is fun to watch guests come in and watch them golf and hear their comments, and it is fun to watch your own character, which you receive at the start of your game, improve. I thought one of the truly unique features of this game was the ability to enter tournaments and play on your course as your character. You get to line up your shots, pick what type of shot, etc, allthough you do not get to putt, which didn't take away any of the experience for me. The only things I would advise you to be ready for are the following: 1. There are occasional graphics glitches, although this may be a demo problem, I don't know.
2. There are frequent spelling problems by the programmers in game, as well as grammatical and punctuational. This won't bother most people, but it's something to watch for. All in all, I would say to buy this game, or if you don't believe me, download the demo from EA's Web site, ea.com. When I find the right deal on the price, I am going to purchase the full copy. Enjoy!

Summary: SimGolf is wicked!
Review: I looked into information on this game and it seemed very interesting. So I downloaded the SimGolf Demo at Gamespy.com and I have to say, this is one of the best games ever! The gameplay is extordinary and the graphics are awesome! You start out as a golf course designer and you have to build golf courses that are fun and have lots of creativity put into them. You can complete your courses with water, rough, rocks, streams, sand traps, and a lot more hazards to make your courses challenging, but still fun. Also, you can help improve your golfers skills by adding pro shops, driving ranges, put practices, and a lot of other buildings such as snack bars, resorts, marinas, and just about anything you can think of. Your golfers are like real people. They talk to each other, fight with each other, get tired, thirsty, hungry, and they do just about anything you would do, but the fun just doesn't stop there! You can also hold tournaments and if you win a tournament you get lots of cash to improve your golf course. I love playing on my golf courses, but on the demo you can only build three holes. Well, this game has almost everything packed into it. I simply love the demo and I can't wait for the SimGolf game to come out in stores! If you love games where you have to work everything out with strategy and love building things then I say get this game. SimGolf has eye-popping graphics, sweet sweet gameplay, and a hell of a lot more just waiting to be chewed on. I can't wait for SimGolf to come out in stores in early 2002 because this is just simply, one of the best games in life history!!!

Summary: Played The Demo!!!!!
Review: I have played the demo (comes with The Sims:Hot Date) , and I must say it's one of the best golf games made yet. I play this almost as much as The Sims Hot Date. Best demo I have ever played since the Metal Gear Solid 2 demo!!!!
