I can confirm, this game is SLOOOOWWWW even on the "faster/newer" devices (8300, 8800).
Every time you hit the ball you have to wait 15-20 seconds until the next scene loads. Very annoying. Not even close to the arcades version.
So is there a pattern developing here as to when BPlay has a demo available? I love THK2 and KaGlom, both of which I was able to demo before buying. I bought World Poker Tour without being able to demo it, and it sucks. Sounds like Golden Tee is terrible too.
Anyone tried any other games that don't have trial versions? How about Chuzzle?
I will say that I bought Sudoku and there's no trial for that, and it's a great game.
This is exactly why you need a trial. When people think of golden tee, they think of the arcade version of it with the ball. I guarantee you numerous people will purchase this thinking the trackball is going to function as the swing.
Dang! I should have done that with WPT Poker. I feel like it's been too long to complain to them now though. Good to hear that they were so accomodating, since most of their games are great!
i also bought this game, and was disappointed with the speed of loading between shots/holes. as others have mentioned, it is almost unplayable. i usually don't buy things without having a trial period, but i went out on a limb on this one since i played a lot of golden tee back in the good old days..... figured i'd give this game a shot.
but also like others here, i must give credit to the Magmic CS team. they responded quickly and let me exchange the game for another.
