Reviewed by: CNET Staff
Play just the back 9 or go for all 36 holes in this decent shareware golf game for Mac OS X. While not on par with console golf games or other retail offerings on the market, any golf addict will like the multiplayer options, physics, and gameplay of GL Golf. The demo lets you play a random sampling of holes from whichever of the two courses you choose to golf on. The graphics are smooth but simple by today's standards, with cone-like trees, jagged hills, and repetitive textures. The gameplay and physics are decent, however, leaving you feeling good about your shots and able to experiment with your stroke. This latest version now offers backspin for even more control over your swings. A cheesy soundtrack accompanies the action, and while some users may find it quickly grows stale, it's easy to turn off. While we understand the shareware limitation, we would have at least liked to play nine holes on one of the courses to get a feel for the overall game. In the end, GL Golf remains challenging and makes for a nice distraction, even if it is a simple simulation with somewhat stiff shareware limitations.Publisher's description
From Nuclear Nova :GL Golf is a 3D Golf game with a realistic physics system and a great graphics, with all the features of a true golf game, such as 108 different holes, obstacles like sand traps, water, and trees, an internet highscore list and great music!
What's new in this version:
- Added Expert mode which allows you to play without yard markers and club selection
- Fixed a horrible bug where at lower FPS on older systems the ball would bounce over the hole to easy and never stop or take to long to stop rolling
- The highscores now download at hole 17 instead of 18 so slower internet connections don't have problems with the highscores
- Fixed as bug where only the last player in multiplayer games highscore would be recorded
- You are now ... see all new features
