It might have taken me a few holes to get things on track, but I found myself competing for top spots and dominating rivals in no time, making my brief time with the M圜AREER mode feel like I was progressing to success without the absorbing grind that forces you to fail before you can ultimately make the big bucks.
TIGER WOODS PGA TOUR 08 REVIEW DRIVER
Much like creating player builds in the NBA 2K series, this will more than likely set you on your path to becoming a particular type of golfer, be it a ‘powerhouse’ driver off the tee, or a well placed ‘sculptor’ of closer shots onto the putting green.īe it over 9 or 18 holes, developer HB Studios have promised a range of 20 real-life course in addition to player-created ones. You’ll also get the chance to craft your skill set based on golfer archetypes, which distribute initial skill points towards certain traits like power, timing, shaping and swing path. The level of customisation here is admittedly deep, allowing you to tweak moist of the facial and body features required to create something of a personal lookalike, or something a little more extravagant. I spent my most of my time with PGA Tour 2K23 with the M圜AREER mode, as I created a custom MyPLAYER, chose a fictional rival to compete against and took to the course. I found that either method can be adapted for both hardcore and causal fans alike, although the newer three-click system adds a layer of depth that encourages player choice through preferred mechanics. The level of difficulty can be adjusted, which will affect the quality of the shot as a result. You’ll hold down the button to time the power of your shot, releasing it at the necessary level of power required with the power meter, which now looks like an expanding circular meter. The newer three-click might feel familiar for those who have played other golf games like Everybody’s Golf, where three single well-timed button sequences determine swing power, ball direction and club face for the optimal shot. I don’t necessarily have a problem with the analogue stick swing mechanics remining faithful, as golfing games have adapted this method over the years, and it feels incredibly natural at this point in time. You’ll also need to swing forward at just the right pace swing too fast and your shot will lose its optimal arc, shoot to slow and you’ll sacrifice the power needed to hit the fairway. You’ll have to time and aim each swing, adjusting for overall direction as not to slice or fade shots. Swinging mechanics have remained largely the same if you choose to utilise the analogue stick. My opening moments with PGA Tour 2K23 felt incredibly familiar and in that regard, comforting.
Most will appreciate it for the same reasons, but there’s no doubt in my mind that PGA Tour 2K23 is headed for the fairway.
TIGER WOODS PGA TOUR 08 REVIEW SERIES
As a result, the series has returned after a brief hiatus with PGA Tour 2K23, bringing with it the same refined gameplay I had come to appreciate, along with a deeper pool of variety through new challenges and modes.
That being said, PGA Tour 2K21 piqued my interested in the sport once again, providing a detailed yet accessible control schemes and found myself admittedly addicted to the various Tours, courses and challenges on offer. I suck at the sport itself, but can respect the patience and nuanced skillset required to succeed. My time spent playing golfing games is sporadic to say the least.
