This game, is great! You hit it up with different kinds of places to go and do, and you can make your own golf courses, and making your private club great! You can have your own golfer that plays, and there is 10 different scales, and if you get 10 holes done, you can upgrade your hotals, theme parks, cart shops, and more! You can change other people, making them good looking, or a old lady! People can throw there golf clubs in the lake, or love your private golf club, and become a member, silver member, or even if your lucky, a GOLD MEMBER! Which you get a lot of money from! Not only do you get a regular mode, you get sandbox mode, is unlimited money! You can save your games for champanchips too! This game has it all!
Grapics/Looking Animation-No, not good for this kind of age, it's like Roller Coster Tycoon. 3/10
Fun-This game is FUN! 10/10
Gameplay/Movieplay-This lasts a long time, but not as much as other sim games. 8/10
Sound-Is great! I love the music in here! 9/10

Overall-A nother Maxis/EA game you NEED to get! 9/10, I give it 5 stars for amazon.com!

Good ol' Sid

I gave the game 4 stars becuase its fun, entertaining, challenging and becuase i like golf. The graphics aren't stellar, but they do the job. The sim golfers have terrible vocabulary, but it doesn't detract from the game really. The test of time is the main question. I found that I got bored quickly with one particular golf course and constantly restarted, but maybe that's just me. This game still respectively gets a 4 star due to the many hours I still spend playing it.

Don't mistake it for a lousy tycoon game

Though I have only played the demo, I can safely say SimGolf is a great game! You get to design a golf course and put in all kinds of landscaping and buildings. You actually get to keep up with a golfer and allow him to play tournaments. It takes a page from the Sims by having the same personality system and that you can golf with your Sims, I think. This is a very fun and addictive game!

this must be a cool game

Whenever a guest visits one of the late night shows, they are seated in the green room before they are called upon by the host. The room is called a green room, because green is a relaxing color. Well I call this a green game, because it's extremely relaxing. This game has been very well thought out and designed. It never crashed, and it's the most bug free software I have played in a long time. It's also extremely addictive. I've talked to a number of different types of gamers who hate golf, but really love this game.

It's a classic and I think will be as popular as The Sims. This game proves the fact that gameplay is certainly superior to graphics.

If you enjoyed Rollercoaster Tycoon, The Sims, Black & White , you owe it yourself to give this game a (try). I know many people who weren't very fond of those games, but find this one insanely addictive.

Reviewer's score: 94% SCORING EXPLANATION

Highs: Insanely addictive and funny; most innovative game out in a while; Very stable game; actually makes management fun; the first game which made me look past the shortcomings of golf.

Lows: Addiction isn't very funny; The game makes a poor paper weight; Compared to the stellar gameplay the graphics are just adequate.

The Verdict: Sid Meier and his development team have produced the best and most addictive game to have come out in a while. It's an early candidate for game of the year.

Loved It!

My intro to golf sims was Microsoft Golf, interesting but not quite my cup of tea. I never did get around to trying Maxis' SimGolf, but then Sid Meier's SimGolf came along, and I found it quite enjoyable. The Sandbox mode is a great way to experiment and see what you can do without having to worry about money, etc. The gameplay is very easy to learn as well. My only complaint would be that I wish there was maybe one more zoom level to take you closer to the action, but the highest zoon level is not enough to detract from enjoyment of the game.

Great Golf game, Great Sim game

I am a fan of the sim games but im not a real fan of the golf games, they're just to complicated and they dont make it fun. As difficult as designing everything about your course and playing it sounds, the creators have made this game simple and easy to enjoy...still keeping a lot of great features.If you liked rollercoaster tycoon you will like this because it has tons of features while keeping it simple.In fact this game is much easier to suceed in than rct.Overall I love this game and it's definately worth the $.

Another SIM sucess

I loaded the free demo offered in my computer magazine and have stoppped my Diablo II game to play. I have been playing it every free moment. SIM games have been very sucessful and this is no exception. It sounds dumb, but it's infectious.
If you don't agree I'll eat the windmill on my par 4 2nd hole. I can't wait for the full version to arrive.
