My parents loved to play golf. Now they are in their 80's and just can't do it anymore.
BUT they just got a new computer...I would like to get them a good golf game to play as I think they would really enjoy it.

Trouble is, I have no idea which are the good golf games out there. Is there one that has pretty accurate dynamics and some good courses to play. I remember Tiger Woods used to have a golf franchise with EA. But if someone has/had a game they really enjoyed, please let me know.

Any suggestions appreciated.

Thanks,
Tracy

These days, the new golf games are online.

I would look at:

www.wgt.com.

I think EA has also put Tiger Woods online.

I've put 5-6 hours into the Early Access of that so far. I like it so far, even in its limited form. I think the golf mechanics are good, not arcadey at all. A lot of helpers in games like Tiger Woods are missing, which means it's all up to your own skill.

You pretty much have to be able to use a gamepad though. A lot of PC purists are mad because they suck with gamepads.

Also there aren't real-world courses in this game. It's all fictional courses created with their nifty course creator, which is included in the game.


I refuse to buy a flight sim that I have no interest in playing, on the off chance that MAYBE someday they'll make the one I really want to play.
