It's time to talk about the best golf game to ever exist

other golf games can't even compete
>>750820328Such a comfy game. God bless the Koreans. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BxMdGMTWEjA&list=RDBxMdGMTWEjA&start_radio=1
>>750820479FPBP, Neo turf master is the real shit
>>750820328Pangya aka loli golf.
>>750820637>>750820328>join private server>first person I play with is shot calcing every hit to be a hole in 1 or albatross
>>750820861The trick is to play by yourself and enjoy the atmosphere of the game
>>750820861Just get the PSP version, and play in your local golf's clubhouse
You mean Mario Golf: Advance Tour?
For me it's Everybody's golf 4
this...and it's not even close
>>750821102I generally do, but he invited me to play and I had just booted up the game after so many years. Not sure why he'd invite someone to play just to dunk on them. I didn't care for it back in the day either, I just didn't imagine people were still doing it now that everything is basically free and instant to unlock. There's no need to cheat.
What are the differences between the original Pangya and the PSP version?
>>750820328*mogs your casual console bullshit*
>>750820328I miss it so much, bros.
Coming through.
>>750820328That's not Pangy->It actually isYou alright, white boy.
I need to get back into this and finally beat the 9 hole challenge. I would have got it on my first try but had terrible luck on one hole with a triple bogey. This game with multiplayer would be amazing.
>>750820328Man this was my jam back in the psp days. Busted loads to the horned lady.
golf is gay
>>750821349Does the PC version have a story mode, or only the PSP version?
What is it about golf games that make them more fun than other sports games?
>>750820328Adam Jensen slowly takes over the golf course aka minna no golf?
>>750822282BASED and Linkspilled
>>750825992For me, the controls are just supertight, and adding RPG elements so I can create supergolfers is just chef's kiss.
>>750825992The overall challenge and interest level of any golf game can be tweaked just by making different courses. You fundamentally can't do this in any other sports game. What makes something like Neo Turf Masters so enduring is that despite being mechanically simple compared to something like Mario Golf, the holes would be fun to approach in any golf game due to their interesting (sometimes brutal, especially in the back nine of each course) layouts.
I hate how Golf Club is basically the only "serious" simulator that doesn't require an internet connection, always-online status, DRMs, but it has one fatal flaw:>there's no UI indicator during the shotFor some reason, the devs thought a UI would make the game too arcade-like, so they decided you can't have any kind of fucking indicator at all. The problem: unlike in real life, you don't have a fucking club in your hand, so it's impossible to judge the force of your shots, for example, when putting.So the solution players have come up with is to keep an eye on details like the distance between the club and the character's boot, and other things that end up functioning as a UI anyway, but a totally bad and inaccurate one.That ruined the game for me.
>>750826463>You fundamentally can't do this in any other sports gameThough I'll make an addendum/asterisk here since I wasn't considering EXTREME sports in this discussion, just traditional ball sports. Extreme sports titles live and die on course design in much the same way; Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1/2 are still fun to play today even with their inferior mechanics compared to 3 and beyond by virtue of the level design being so strong.
>>750820328No game does the feeling of landing a hole in one better than this give or take Neo Turf Masters, if only because the latter you're saving money by playing out of your mind.>Land a nightmare shot that bounces off a fucking tower and the landing spins into the hole>That shower of pangs and the special pop off animationFucking kino I'm glad the pserv is still a thing
>>750826752I'm hoping someone makes an offline server like we see with other MMOs. Pservers won't last forever and we need a way to preserve Pangya.
>>750825992To me, they're fun because they involve meaningful decisions.Basically:>you analyze the course>you consider different possible shots, taking general conditions (like wind), clubs, terrain, etc., into account>you look for a balance between risk and reward>you try to be precise to execute the best possible shotIt's simple because, at most, you only need to think two shots ahead. There's nothing too complex to consider. There's no pressure on you at all. Just relax, make good decisions, be precise in your execution, and then reap the rewards.
>>750825992I only like ones that take place on somewhat realistic courses, it's like I'm really in nature
Need a golf course simulator that's basically a modern version of SimGolf where you can create golf courses with a proper terrain editor and then play on them yourself while managing the golf course.
>>750820328The only golf game that ever mattered.SOVL
>>750820328I can still hear the ''PANGYA'' sound effect very well, I love that PSP game.
We can host some game nights for this bros
>>750831797>I can still hear the ''PANGYA'' sound effect very well, I love that PSP gamePangya was a Playboy bundled CD golf game not a PSP game. Back when JAV started to pick off outside the Japan, Playboy just threw Pangya installer on the CD with the magazine.
>>750832240its not the same feeling as it was back in 2005.
>>750820726Glad someone posted thisThe game has such a chill and relaxing soundtrack, used to listen to it at work evenReally one of my personal favorite OSTs
>>750832240"We" should Claude vibecode some eXXXtra lines to the game, so that u can do a quicky with other players on the golf field for wind + aim boost effects on the swing.
>>750820726Fond of this version myself: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fmzR2Q2Q664
>>750820479I'm not joining back until you ban Hikari.
>>750832305Huh, I like that McDonald's
>>750820479FPBP>t. fernando almeida
>>750820328if you insist
>>750834413she left
>I like the way you move
>>750820726Koreans have literally never made a good game.
>>750820328Take me back to the 2000s.
>>750820328I'm a music man.And agreed.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BxMdGMTWEjA
>>750826463I never thought of it that way. Makes sense.
>>750820328>>750838601Though, I will admit, I love "Kirby's Dreamcourse" for both its soundtrack and gameplay, too. Even if just getting your clubs outta their cart and setting up your account card.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xde8tYkdej0
>try playing a modern pga tour game>it's microtransaction riddled garbageSports games got slopped so hard because the normalfags that play them don't care
>>750838886what's the best pga tour game
>>750820328I was excited to play Pangya when I first hacked my PSP, but it was one of the only roms that didn't work for whatever reason. I remember seeing people online saying there was some issue too. :/
>>750839556Toss up between 2004 and 2005. The putting in both is terrible and gives you very little to work with as far as understanding the green. The real trouble is that all RPGolf and RPGolf adjacent games start off like dogshit (can't hit for shit, no ball control), are fun for a short while when your stats are sufficient to birdie most holes, and become dogshit again after you're bombing 350+ yards every drive and ceasing entirely to actually play golf.
>>7508395562004 or 2005, or 2012 on the Wii. on a mechanical level the PS2 games are all pretty much the same from 2004 onwards, the only thing that changes are the courses. 2004 has the better course list, 2005 has different seasons and times of day. 2012 on the Wii is the best implementation of motion controls ever put into a game.
>>7508395562004 and 2005 are the best if you like arcadey gameplay. 2012 and 2014 are good if you want something more challenging and realistic
The wii port was actually alright
