Re: Is EA getting things right? - Links 2k3 Threat Alert !

I may get it... Why not? I tried WGT for a month and I can try this one as well. I think the DeLuxe version will be $85 (will give up one meal out) and they have several courses I like... Just need to make sure that I have all the hardware requirements. I should be fine. I just hope it is not only c...

Re: Updating Black Valley No.2

I never played this course in full (I only came back to Links about 2 years ago and there are hundreds of courses) hence it is fair to say that I know basically nothing about it. However you asked for some comments and suggestions and thus I can provide a few which are a consequence of how I play th...

Re: Scoring how?????

I used to play Links online with a guy that was obsessed at winning. He took it amazingly serious and would get real mad when things didn't go his way. No matter what, he just HAD to win, even if he had to cheat to do it. He was really good at the game, and he knew by his swing if he hit a bad shot...

Re: Scoring how?????

Mr T, I enjoy your posts because they are well thought out, thorough and entertaining. And I don't mean to be insulting, but it appears that you might get bored too easily. At 73 years old, I have played Links since the 90s. There have been a few breaks for whatever reason, but I've always come bac...

Re: Scoring how?????

The grid lines are sometimes difficult to see, especially for the aging eyes. Using the BLI solves that problem. It only took about a month to switch over and shoot the same or better scores. The biggest problem with not being able to see the grid lines is the greens texture color. Some of them hav...

Re: Scoring how?????

You guys are not giving due credit to Roy Higgi and a few others who do play in regular tournaments and don't miss many shots. I have played against some of these guys and they give you a lesson. :notworthy: I think that the issue in the original question was a bit different. While there are defini...

Re: Career Mode Roster Help

I believe that if you use a player already in existence, the only way to compete against a new roster is to get rid of certain files. Specifically, someone taught me to erase the following files: player_name.PHF and player_name.SEP. On my PC those two files are found in users/owner_name/documents/Li...

Re: What the other (free) golf games are doing: WGT

More details from the field...... As I am getting the jest and was able to move reasonably fast to Pro level (the third level) and I am able to increase the difficulty level conditions, I can say that the game has become more and more realistic. Courses available: PGA National, Congressional, Pebble...
