Hmm. that's a bit disappointing. The world tour mode should have at least added Scotland and Japan since golf originated in Scotland and in the East Asia region golf is currently most popular in Japan (though interest has been rising in China as well which would also make an interesting location.
Also, the fact that it all takes place in relatively small rooms is also disappointing. I'm not saying get rid of small rooms altogether, but when I think about causing havoc with golf balls (or other sports equipment) I would be thinking of malls, museums (Smithsonian, The Met, The Louvre, popular city blocks (Time Square, Akihabara/Shibuya, Trafalgar Square) and so on. The scope just seems a bit small especially when they did do more crazy stuff in Burnout.

This game is waaaaaaaaaaaay too slow, so much slow motion. And the Smashbreaker mode lasts far too shortly, I wanna be in fireball mode all the time. Plus you have next to no control over where the ball goes, kinda just pick a direction and flick the analog stick and wait for 5 minutes while the physics do its thing. And the -awesome- early 2000s skate punk music is so completely ill fitting in this setting. It should be aristocratic reneissance music, not -rad frathouse rawk-. IMO. I played the first few stages and gave up. And putting sucks. And the camera.

I haven't played this, but from your video, it seems like what it's missing that Burnout had were the other cars. Half the fun of the crash modes in previous Burnouts was the almost puzzle-game like placement of AI cars, and learning how to leverage them to pull off insane shit after many different attempts. But in this, it seems like all the environments are totally static, which greatly reduces the ability of the player to utilize the environment creatively.

it could be awesome if instead of Golf was Pool, Dangerous Pool sounds very cool to me since i always thought that it could be pretty neat to do the exact same thing but with a bunch of balls XD
But seems pretty neat otherwise, but as you said it kinda loses its charm after a while with so limited options, a shame because this could be a pretty cool idea if were executed correctly.

I am probably the only one who has played burnout games and didn't like the crash mode. I just want the -racing- parts.
Dangerous Golf looks good but more like a tablet/smartphone game to me, in terms of gameplay.
I hope this game sells well so they get the go ahead for a racing game.
Just please stay away from established series. Enough damage done to NFS.

Oh my god I hate you - for winding me up with that glorious Burnout 3 Crash Mode footage, then teasing me that AT LAST, it has been resurrected, new, this very month! In Dangerous Golf! Then kicking me in the dingle with the reality that it's mediocre, or at least, improperly handled to make it truly the joyful experience of our memory.
Man that hurts.

LGR I would highly recommend reveiwing Dwarf Fortress! Although I wouldn't be suprised if you already know about it. No other game I can think of has captured it's poise. The game is literally a world simulator and creator just waiting for your fingers to touch and shape it, but in the process grinds them away and you have a lot of FUN.

I really love your videos. I think you've got a great cadence and delivery, lots of good info and opinions, amazing variety of subjects covered, no cussing, perfect video resolution/clarity and a handsome gentleman. Your videos are high quality entertainment and I really enjoy and appreciate all of the hard work you put into making them.

Hey love your vids. Just finished restoring my C64 because of your videos. Did you ever play Centurion: Defender of Rome? It was the first game I ever owned and I played it for years on my dads Amiga. And even later on one of this crappy ESCOM Pc's we had in Europe. Would be nice if you did a review of this game.
