EA SPORTS™ PGA TOUR™

I have enjoyed playing WGT online for many years and thought I would try EA Sports PGA golf. Must admit it is more realistic then WGT and tougher using a Xbox controller but is quite enjoyable. Would recommend this game to any online golfer.

They focused more on being woke than making a good game. I can play AAA titles all day at 100fps, this runs at 20 in windowed mode, and no it doesn't allow true Full Screen. There's no practice area, also it doesn't save your key assignments. This is pretty typical EA garbage.

Wow, this is kak.

After an eight-year hiatus from the fairway, EA SPORTS™ PGA TOUR™ returns to the tee box with a confident, visually stunning, and mechanically ambitious golf sim. Marketed as “The Home of the Majors,” EA’s re-entry into the genre aims for authenticity and immersion above all—and in many ways, it succeeds. But while the swing feels solid and the courses shine, a few rough patches keep it from landing an eagle. The core swing mechanic—based on analog stick tempo and backswing precision—leans toward simulation rather than arcade. It’s not as immediately snappy or forgiving as PGA TOUR 2K23, but that’s intentional. Every shot requires thought, every lie has weight, and every green demands real putting finesse. The game also introduces Shot Types, allowing you to choose between finesse, power, punch, and more—each with its own strategy and execution curve. Once you get the hang of it, it offers more tactical depth than its competition. However, the swing system can feel inconsistent at times. The feedback loop for tempo errors isn’t always clear, and certain clubs or lies feel more punishing than realistic. A more intuitive training mode or better visual cues could help smooth the learning curve. This is where EA absolutely delivers. EA SPORTS PGA TOUR features 30+ real-world courses at launch—including all four Majors (The Masters, U.S. Open, The Open Championship, and PGA Championship), plus Augusta National, Pebble Beach, St Andrews, and more. Each course is laser-scanned and immaculately recreated using EA’s Frostbite engine. Lighting, textures, and environmental detail are stunning. Augusta, in particular, is a masterclass in digital course design—lush, pristine, and atmospheric. No other golf game captures the feeling of standing on the 12th tee at Amen Corner or staring down the 18th fairway at St. Andrews quite like this. The single-player Road to the Masters career mode offers a solid structure: start as an amateur, earn tour status, and work your way into the Majors. You can build your golfer’s skills through play and progression, choose equipment, and even select shot preferences. While it’s satisfying from a gameplay perspective, the presentation is a bit dry. There are no real rivalries, player interviews, or dynamic storytelling. Compared to EA’s other sports franchises, this mode feels restrained and a little impersonal—even with the licensed broadcast overlays and commentary. Graphically, EA SPORTS PGA TOUR is best-in-class. Player models are highly detailed, course environments are vibrant and atmospheric, and weather effects—like wind and cloud cover—feel organic and impactful. The game's broadcast-style presentation, complete with authentic overlays and realistic commentary, gives every round a sense of weight and legitimacy. Even little things, like the sound of a clean drive echoing through a quiet course, or crowds reacting to a long putt, are beautifully executed. Online features are functional but not groundbreaking. You can play ranked or social matches and participate in live events tied to real-world tournaments. It’s smooth, but currently lacks the depth and community features found in 2K’s Online Societies or Course Designer. Notably, there’s no custom course creation, which limits long-term replayability for creative players. EA is rolling out post-launch content and updates, but this omission may frustrate a part of the golf gaming community. Where It Impresses: -Gorgeous, true-to-life course visuals -All four Majors fully licensed and playable -Deep shot mechanics and shot types -Immersive broadcast-style presentation -Real-world pros, including Jordan Spieth and Scottie Scheffler Where It Misses: -Inconsistent swing feedback and difficulty spikes -Career mode lacks story and personality -No course designer or offline multiplayer options at launch -Learning curve may frustrate more casual players EA SPORTS PGA TOUR is a strong return to form for EA's golf legacy—ambitious, beautiful, and built with a deep respect for the sport. It's a thinking-person’s golf game: more sim than arcade, more Augusta than Topgolf. With time, patches, and continued content support, it could evolve into the gold standard. If you're a fan of golf’s grandeur and want to play at the heart of its biggest stages, EA SPORTS PGA TOUR is a scenic, serious round worth taking. Rating: 7/10

Its golf. Just wack the ball and yell obscenities when it doesn't land in the fairway, just like real life.

I couldn't even actually play the game. And why do i need to pick a pronoun? Most people are not gay. Why add gay stuff in games

This game is yet another instance of EA being a money hungry company that's more than willing to screw you over while happily taking your money. This application can't recognize the 3440 x 1440 monitor that it's started on and refuses to let me select a resolution over 1920 x 1080. I know that I should expect to be let down by every game EA puts out, but I have up to this point given them the benefit of the doubt. That ends with this absolutely unusable "game".

cant even finish a game with the amount of crashes
