Best golf game i've ever played, graphics are gorgeous and the gameplay feels really solid. Online is a blast and once XSN is running it will be even better.

I have two others links games and this one is by far the best of all that I have tried. Good graphics and sounds. Easy to play and very entertaining.
I would recommend it to anyone who likes golfing.
love links

I'm not a golfer, but when I play this game I always feel like I've been a golfer my whole life. It's just a lot of fun to play, it's kinda relaxing and the graphics are pretty good. Just like any other game, it's addicting

I bought Tiger Woods 2003 last year and loved it. I was hoping that TW 2004 would be on Xbox Live, but no. So I tried Links. I like the gameplay and the graphics in both games, but it is the online play that makes Links a better game. The tournaments and announcers in Tiger Woods are better. Fortunately, you can mute the announcers and play your own music if you want to. Nice to go out and play 18 with your friends across the country.
Microsoft are a bunch of idiots.

This game has bugs that will eat your stats and unlocked equipment, take your money away, and force you to do things you have allready done if you are unlucky enough to come across a save bug like both me AND my brother did. My Stats just got reset but his player got tottally screwed and had all his stats reverted to a much earlier state and no longer wants to play the game and neither do I. Futher proof that the people at microsoft are a bunch of idiots.

Links 2004 has way too many goofy special effects. Also, the game is not challenging enough. You can pretty much just fire away at will and get a low score. The graphics were cool at first, but I quickly lost interest with all the gimicks. I wish they would bring Golden Tee to the xbox.
What can I say..Microsoft has proven it again...

You've proven that you are only out for a buck and could careless about putting out a quality product. It is amazing that the Links franchise could go from one of the greatest golf games of all times in Links 2001(PC) to what is the worst golf game since the days of the regular NES system. There is no control on this game whatsoever, chipping is a joke, and the putting is the worst system I have ever seen. You are in no control of what goes on. The player simply hits buttons and hopes for the best on this game. It's so depressing, the mighty Links franchise has fallen and fallen hard. Trust a real golfer folks, if you want realism, get Tiger Woods 2004 for any system. Even if you are given this game, return it immediately, your health will appreciate it. As I said, Microsoft proves every time it releases something that they could careless about quality(for those of us who have to run Windows SUXP you know what I mean).
Don't buy this for the Xbox Live and XSN features!

I'll start off by saying that I was highly anticipating the release of this game on the Xbox console. Finally, a world class golf simulation that can played on Xbox Live and in tournaments with XSN! After a month of frustrations, I'm giving up on this game and going back to Tiger Woods 2004.
Microsoft has some serious issues with Xbox Live and XSN that continue to worsen as the load on their system increases. 80% of the time your Links 2004 scores will not post after completing a round of golf. You might have had the best round of golf but it won't post to your Xbox Live statistics. So, what's the point of playing online?
XSN sounds like a great feature. Play online tournaments against other golf junkies. Great idea, poorly implemented by Microsoft once again. Again, you can pretty much bet that once you finish a round of golf that your scores will not post properly to the XSN system and thus you either lose the round stats or lose the tournament completely!
Don't purchase this game unless you want to join the legions of frustrated golfers on Xbox Live and XSN. If you are playing this offline then maybe it's a good game for you. But, in my opinion, Tiger Woods 2004 has more features, more courses, better career play mode and better sound and graphics.
This release is a major disappointment for me.
Better than Tiger Wood

Not a lot of fluff, just good game play. When you do what you're suppose to do you make the shot.
