That time had certainly come for EA Sports' golf franchise. Those two are legends in their own right, but there comes a time when a sports gaming series needs fresh voices. The Golf Channel's Frank Nobilo and Rich Lerner are a welcome departure from Jim Nantz and David Feherty. While not perfect, RMPT does as good of a job injecting comments as any previous golf simulation. That's especially the case in a golf title. That's a good thing.Ĭreating compelling commentary is difficult in any sports video game. While some might think RMPT is overly simplistic, it could be the perfect game for the gamer who isn't looking to struggle mightily for the first 10 events they play.īecause Frostbite 3 completely eliminates loading times between holes, you may find yourself playing through multiple rounds in one sitting. It seemed to be just enough to keep me encouraged and wanting to play more. Having played the series before, I had some success in my first two tournaments in career mode, but I wasn't dominating. It's seemingly designed to be a pick-up and play golf simulation. Essentially the game uses player ratings to simulate many of the holes and only requires the gamer to play the most important holes of the round.Ĭontrol freaks like myself like to hit every shot, but those on time constraints may opt for Quick Rounds.įrom a difficulty standpoint, RMPT isn't at the top of the spectrum. Similar to what Sony did with MLB: The Show when San Diego Studios introduced Quick Counts, EA Sports has put Quick Rounds in effect for RMPT. In any case, there's almost no way to imagine a gamer being unable to find his or her sweet spot with the controls. However, others might just prefer to stick to what they know. I'm a sucker for customization, so this was clearly the best option for me. With the latter, you can alter the swing mechanic, swing difficulty, shot shaping and nine other settings to pick the perfect style for the way you want to play. You can go with the simplistic arcade style, classic-which is the old three-click system that veterans of the series will remember-tour for the advanced player, or you can even customize a style. RMPT allows gamers to choose their gameplay style. I don't hate the way the players look, but I don't love them. The slightly downgraded player models are a noticeable contrast from the courses, which are boosted by fantastic lighting and textures. The player renders are good, but not quite as sharp as the environments. Image from Rory McIlroy PGA Tour, provided by EA Sports
