Then there's Tour style, a completely analog system where every errant twitch of any of your left thumb muscle fibers can mess up your shot completely. Playing this way is likely to lead to some cussing even before even you get the shot off. Screwing up any of that can mess with your shot. All this is visually represented through a curved meter that displays small "windows" that signal the optimum time to press. Veterans of past golf game will recognize the "three-click" nature of the Classic playing style: One push of the A button starts the backswing, a second one sets the power and the final click determines how well you strike the ball. You toggle between aiming for distance and using an "aiming arc" with the left shoulder button, and you can pick different kinds of shots using the Y button (like a "choke up" swing versus a flop shot) and shape your shot using the right thumbstick. The Arcade style is a simple matter of pulling back on the left thumbstick and pushing forward to varying degrees, hoping that you can at least keep a straight line during your "swing" motion to hit a perfect shot. You can choose from three different playing styles, depending on how difficult you want to make virtual golf life for yourself: Arcade, Classic and Tour. The simple joy of getting on a course and hitting some balls is the fixed point of the whole experience, and for the most part, EA handles it with brilliant touch. But sadly, as one eventually learns, it is also not enough.īeing able to "play your way" isn't just a cute phrase it's this game's creed.
It is captivating, addictive and maddening.

It has the capability of taking an unabashed, non golf-watching football and basketball fan and pinning him or her to the couch for chunks of time as they figure out how to nail the perfect approach shot on a par-5, which I barely knew what all that meant until I was grinding through a few courses myself. These may sound like extreme, polar interpretations of the mental journey golf can take someone, but the fact that my mind even traveled to this landscape says something about the pure playing experience of Rory McIlroy PGA Tour.
