Outlaw Golf

This Is the best golf game I've ever played!The Tiger Woods golf series is more realistic and life like, but this is much more fun. The Characters and Announcer are all very funny, and you can improve your Character's power, accuracy and composure on the practice course. You can even beat up your caddy! This game will have you hooked for days!

We rented this game thinking that it was a NFL-Blitz style game--full contact, bash em up golf. We were sorely disappointed. There is very little fighting in it, and what little 'beatings' there are cannot be controlled by the player. Besides that, the control is very hard to use and ultimately frustrating. This is one of the worst games on GameCube. If you want a good golf game, get Tiger Woods 2003.

We rented this game a few days ago and having been playing it non-stop ever since. We're rushing out to buy it. Besides the hilarious characters and funny commentary, we love that it's a truly realistic golf game. People have been complaining about how touchy the controls are...but that's how real golf is! You move your club just the slightest bit right or left and you're in the rough! It's very realistic. Even down to the composure..you hit a great shot, you're happy as can be. Hit that bad one, and you're pissed off. I'd recommend renting this game before buying just to make sure it's your cup of tea....but we LOVED it!

I recently bought a Game Cube, and I was looking for a golf game. Outlaw Golf seemed enticing because it is designed for a more mature crowd and supposedly contains "strong language", "suggestive themes", and "mild violence." Since golf naturally runs the risk of being a little boring, I figured this game would be the lively alternative I was looking for.
Let me tell you, this game is really NOT FUN at all. It is a terrible golf game, and the adult themes and language are really just more hoaky than humorous or entertaining. The "strong language" sounds more like one of the edgier episodes of the Brady Bunch. Besides all of this, the controls on this game are finnicky and ultimately frustrating.
I am not a video game snob at all, I normally like about every game I play. This one, however, just isn't fun. There a couple other golf games for Game Cube... buy one of those.

I rented this game to try it out. The concept is fun and the courses are interesting. In general the game follows most golfing game scenarios, pick a golfer, play in a competion, the more you win the more golfers and better equipment you get to use. While the concept is fun, it is ruined by the control system, esp for putting. While the controls are the same as with most golf games, control back and forward for the stroke, the physics for hitting a draw or fade is incorrect, you actually have to use a different control to set where you want to hit the ball for a draw or a fade instead of incorporating it into the stroke like in Tiger Woods 2003. The putting stroke is horrid, depending on the distance to the aim point a 50% stroke can take you 4 ft up to 50 ft. This makes it next to impossible to create a repeatable putting stroke.
In summary, if you want a golf simulation game, go buy Tiger Woods. If you want something to play with your buds over a six pack get Outlaw Golf.
