Reception

The game received "mixed or average" reviews according to the review aggregator website Metacritic.[1][2] Stuart Miles of The Times gave the PlayStation 2 version five stars.[3] Paul Katz of Entertainment Weekly gave the game a B, saying that "while the Gametrak is a techno marvel, it's the video game portion that still needs work."[4] Jason Hill of The Sydney Morning Herald gave the PC and PlayStation 2 versions three out of five, saying that "any golfer will be able to pick up and play in seconds, and the sensation of playing real golf is astonishing. Pity the software simulation is so drab".[5]
