That stinks man. I assume Amazon will make it right with no problems.

I've been playing EA Sport PGA Tour Golf on PS5. I'm definitely liking the 3-click golf swing option in this game. Graphics are very detailed too.

Hoping you'll get your cartridge Raven.  We had a similar thing happen a couple of years ago with a DVD.

We were away for the weekend, so I only managed to start TotK yesterday.  So far, so BotW.

Well, I just received  Pac-Man museum plus for Switch today from Amazon. However, someone removed the plastic wrap from the case and took out the cartridge. Hrm


Now I have to contact Amazon customer support. Get them to send me another one.

They'll do you right.

I finished RE4 and started an inifnite rocket launcher speedrun. Very quickly got bored; it's no GTA.

Really enjoying PGA Tour. It's much better after I turned off the music, commentary, crowd noise and the reaction clips (no EA. I don't want to see my avatar shacking his head in disgust on every shot). I wish I could turn off EA's BS connection requirement too. Annoying AF..

No. I don't like watching any sports, just like playing the video games.

I love golf games. Other than maybe racing, it's the only sports game I like. The best was Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2010 for the Wii. That was the first to use Motion Plus and it synced with the Wii's weather channel, so the in-game weather reflected current real-world conditions.

That's cool. too bad the Weather channel no longer works. I only played Wii Sports Resort golf on the Wii. Loved that game so much. Frisbee golf was a lot of fun too.

I take back some of the positivity about EA's PGA Tour, though. Turns out the single player mode is unplayable without an always online connection to EA's servers. I initially thought it was just like Bethesda's server connection for Doom Eternal, which is annoying but optional for single player.  Nope. You want to play, you must be connected. I also found out that PGA Tour 2K23 also requires an always online connection. So when my internet is down, I can't play golf. Hrm I hate this anti-consumer BS so much. Lesson learned: always check before buying.

I've played and loved golf games since the TRS-80, but the last few year have been rough, rough I tell ya.

The last golf game I got for the Switch was from 2K and it completely sucked requiring online, even in career mode, and always with the upsells.

The best most recent golf game, which I can always go back to is XSN Sports Links for the Xbox. Second is Tiger Woods for Wii.  There are some good ones on PSP as well, but golf has been a shitshow the last decade.

Whenever I am on holiday I always watch the golf if I can find it on TV (we don't have GolfTV in Australia). Otherwise I don;t have the luxury. Perfect second screen viewing if you have a handheld game or something to read.

I looked it up expecting an indie ps1 era quake 3 style demake. Boy was I disappointed. Also " indie ps1 era quake 3 style demake" is incoherent to someone outside our hobby.
