Outlaw Golf

"Trailer trash golfing"

Story
There is no story. The characters are all generic and I didn't find them funny or entertaining. They all have background but they are all lame. I give story a 0/10


Control
The control takes a while to get use to. The right stick is overly sensitive when swinging. The control is also unresponsive sometimes. I give control a 6/10


Voice Acting, Sound Effects and Music
The voice acting is just what I expected it to be, average. The sound effects are also average. I can't remember any music, so if there is any than it's really forgettable. The game doesn't let you use your own soundtracks either. I give voice acting, sound effects and music a 4/10


Game Play
you start the game with four characters and they each have different stats but it doesn't matter which one you choose because they all play the same. There are 40 events to play but you only have a few open at the start of the game. The events vary from a 18 hole game to distance shots. The different types of events makes the game a little fun but all the events except the 18 hole events, feel like mini games. Also another problem is that on the mini game type events the stages change making it really hard to make all the shots when the elevation and curve of the area change. The 18 hole events are also flawed with poorly made course. The courses have sand traps and tall grass right in the middle of the normal course so you have to sometimes make your ball curve which isn't too hard to do. That's another problem, with the way swinging is set up, it's way too easy to make your ball curve when you want it to go straight. probably the best feature is the composure meter which goes up and down depending on how well you're doing. Sadly this is also flawed because if you do bad you character gets worse! This isn't helpful at all. you also get beat coins every couple of holes which you can use to beat your caddie up and they help raise your composure meter but it's pretty boring to do. I give game play a 4/10


Replay Value
The game can be fun but you need to play it a lot just to get the hang of it which isn't ideal for a game that has multi-player since your friends will get frustrated if they haven't played the game before. The game features some nice mult-player games and it does have a few secrets. I give replay value a 6/10


Final Score
I give Outlaw Golf a 4/10
