"Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2002 comes close to matching LS2001"
First, I am avid pc golf fan ever since the orignal PGA Golf came out years back. While I think Links has better game play golf wise, Tiger's PGA is nothing to complain about for it does have solid game play in its own right. The graphics in my opinion is much better in Tiger Woods PGA than Links 2001, I still don't get when the ball lands in Links you see a little trail line (unrealistic!). The trees actually move, ball splashes and leaves ripples in the water, and the crowd actually moves unlike Links where all you see is dots flying across the screen (these are supposed to be birds). Online play is better in Links for you have more options and from what I hear TWPT20002 is only supposed to be good for a year (which isn't bad I guess). Designing a course is a little easier with Tiger's PGA than it is with Links 2001, so I might switch over to Tiger Woods PGA.

"Nice looking game, but buggy"
I have to admit I had high expectations when I bought this game. EA Sports does a great job with their games and I have never been disappointed, until now.

The game does look great. The courses are spectacular. The commentary, while it does get repetitive, is a lot better than in their other games. They do a good job of reflecting what is going on in game.

What I don't like is how buggy it is. A good example is the stored replays of the Best Putt. In Best Shot it works fine, but on Best Putt there is no button to exit the replay. The only way I found to get out was the 3 finger salute. I've also experienced quite a few crashes while playing the game, which I've never had happen with my other EA Sports games.

Another feature I don't like is pointer arrow when you are aiming your shot. It doesn't seem to take the features of the course into consideration. It generally points to the flag, regardless of what lies between you and the flag. The tiny overhead view on the side isn't very good at telling what to expect, so I've had too many cases of driving my ball into the ocean. If I could have seen what was up ahead better, I could have compensated for that.

This is a fun game when it works correctly, but the bugs are far too frustrating for me.

"Not what I thought...."
I bought this today to play on my laptop which easily meets the minimum requirements but the game looks terrible. the game play is pretty fun, though. I like the pros and the courses but this doesn't look nearly as good as Links. Definitely not as realistic - it looks sort of cartoony but maybe it's time to upgrade my PC...
