#GOLF IT VS GOLF WITH FRIENDS SERIES#
The biggest threat though to the reign of PGA Tour 2K21 has to be considered the recent announcements regarding the return of EA’s dormant PGA Tour golf series that hasn’t released a new entry since Rory McIlroy’s PGA Tour back in 2015. On top of that, there are modes in Mario Golf that are not dissimilar to the BR-style Divot Derby mode within PGA 2K. But who knows? Maybe that kind of counter-programming is exactly what people are looking for when it comes to virtual golf right now. This started with Mario Golf: Super Rush, though that game is not necessarily trying to attract all that many fans of PGA Tour 2K21 by virtue of being a more cartoonish version of the sport than what 2K’s simulation has to offer. In other words, this is where an EA golf game comes into play.Īfter all, those days will be coming to an end soon for PGA Tour 2K21 with other golf video games slated to be released in both the near and distant future.

But the fact that PGA Tour 2K21 didn’t actually secure an exclusive license to use the PGA Tour name and all of its connected entities always meant the door was still wide open for other games to enter the fray and stake their claim to some of the same territory the makers of PGA Tour 2K21 have been taking for granted while being the only golf game on the block. With the market theirs to claim for domination, any perceived shortcomings are bound to be easier to overlook when there simply aren’t any other titles to compare the game against and help determine its true worth. or cartoony? I dunno, I just don't really like them.Since its release in August of last year, one of the best things that PGA Tour 2K21 has had going for it is the fact that it really doesn’t have a lot of serious competition within the realm of golf video games. I also don't really like any of the ball customizations from Golf It, either. Though I own both, Golf It was a gift, and I don't think I'd ever have bought it with my own money. But it may be because I played it game first (or partially due to that). Admittedly, I like GWYF more despite not yet having Workshop, and I play it a *LOT* more often. Personally, I like both games and I plan to continue playing each of them. By the end of the second or third course, I was enjoying it.Īnother thing to note: GWYF seems to have a lot more options in regard to ball customization. But by the end of my first 18 holes, I was used to it. The change in controls was very jarring at first, and unpleasant. RMB will disengage the putter without hitting the ball, if you wish to adjust your aim. **Note: when the putter is engaged, you cannot adjust the direction of your shot.
This can be both a positive and a negative feature, depending on your point of view. It feels a little more like you're playing mini golf, but it's clearly not as easy to control. you pull your mouse back and push/flick it forward with the desired amount of force. Golf It! - Use LMB to engage the putter, then actively control the putter with your mouse. **Note: You can change direction while click-and-drag to adjust the direction of the shot while simultaneously adjusting power. GWYF - You click-and-drag to fill a power meter, then release and the putter hits the ball with that desired amount of force. The first and most impactful difference (imo) that I noticed was a difference in controls. That said, I think both games have their merit.Īfter playing a LOT of GWYF, someone in my group of friends bought Golf It for each of us since it had Workshop (and thus a lot more content).

The map editor is currently available as a beta build and will probably be in the next big content update for the title. Originally posted by Prop-timist Prime (the Jolly):GWYF doesn't have the option to create/share custom golf courses, but it is in the works.
