Re: EA Sports PGA Tour Releases in Spring 2023

May I ask, where you had these opportunities? I was really wanting one for PGA and GT7, but am now thinking I’ll just hold out until next spring or summer in hopes that they are at Walmart and or a slim model is made.

If you have a Twitter account, “ps5 in stock alerts” posts at least once or twice a week. Legit sellers, no scalpers.

For me to come back to golf games and it has been a while I will need to know if this game allows you to edit the fake golfers to give them real names and such. I would want an entire roster of real golfers. Customization is everything.

I would say the chances of that are close to zero.

EA has real names, I think you are thinking of the early Golf Club games.

but only a set amount of licensed guys right? Not the entire tour.

Man it already stings that the game is still a year out, but it’s really going to be disappointing come Thursday’s morning next week. We should of had the game to go along with it, or at least the ability to watch others play it on YouTube[emoji23]

Good news as far as I'm concerned. The last thing I want is for them to abandon the game again because of lack of sales. Hopefully they will take this time to build other basic stuffs like: golfer customization, country clubs, dynamic weather and please fix the ball moving out freaky right from the putter blade on breaking putt. And trees moving like there's a earthquake when it's windy.

You may be setting yourself up for a let down. I’m expecting this to be just as bare bones as Rory was. Just with a little more fleshed out career mode and majors. I have zero expeditions as far how deep the content is. I don’t think will see that until after a few installments.

If it is as bare bones as Rory was with a couple more courses, you might see the next game by 2030.

This is what they have said so far, starting with maybe the most important thing, a new swing method. Also, new create a player, at least 11 courses, hopefully on top of all of the Rory courses since both are on frostbite Engine, and lpga.

I’m also very intrigued by ShotLink data being used, hopefully that is more than a marketing scheme.

If any USA folks are looking for a PS5, Amazon is pumping this pretty good, which might indicate a fair amount of stock they've built up to release at once.

Tomorrow at 11am EST -- I think being Amazon Prime is required

It's also PS5 Digital only (personally the only one I'm interested in since it's $100 less and the only difference is disk drive or not -- and I'm all digital for anything console anymore)

Re: EA Sports PGA Tour Releases in Spring 2023

Anyone get one?

Anecdotally, it looks like it was hyped up and there wasn't in fact much supply.
More of the usual.

Probably a smart move for all the "next-gen only" games (as we think PGA23 is) to stay on the sidelines still

Re: EA Sports PGA Tour Releases in Spring 2023

The "big" Amazon drop was indeed over very quickly. I have one from a Sony Direct invite a few months back, but I was trying to get one for an older friend that I play online with. My wife and I are Prime members, had 2 computers going minutes before 11am...we refreshed the page at least 200 times each until about 11:15, and then they started to appear. We had one in our cart 4 different times within 10 minutes of when they started to show up, but one click later to actually buy it, they would be gone. You can't compete with bots.

It's just not worth it. If you're a Sony Plus member, sign up for an invite, that's how I lucked into mine. But trying to jump on these "drops" as a regular consumer, even with whatever membership is required, is a waste of time.

We just have to assume that by next Spring when people really need one to play the EA game, they will be widely available. Until then, it's just not worth the effort.

I remember last spring, believing by this spring they would be in Walmart[emoji23]
