This trailer reminds me when the series first moved to the 360/PS3. I was so excited to get my hands on it, and when I did, its been down hill every since.

I wouldn't go that far has tiger woods 11 was great!

Preach to me brother! Hate follow cam with a passion, how hard can it be to have snap to landing zone cam? You hit the ball, camera stays behind the golfer for a few seconds then snaps to a camera from the target end tracking the incoming ball, it cannot be that hard!!

Not real excited about the game at all. If it ends up being a better sim game and doesn't have the arcade crap in it then maybe I'll give it a try. These days though it's really hard giving EA any $. I know I'll never pay full price for any.

The golf club is absolutely fantastic, was totally worth the 20 or 30 bucks I paid for it on it's release date. But, if you gotta have the pros and real life courses...then you gotta have EA. I personally enjoy just picking up the sticks in the summer and playing a quick 18 on the golf club whenever I feel like it, I don't get super into the be a pro mode in PGA like I do with NBA 2k and The Show.

This game is gonna have to be pretty phenomenal to get me off The Golf Club. You just know that EA will pull their usual BS and charge extra for DLC courses, etc., which infuriates me to no end. $60 is enough for a yearly installment of any game, I refuse to pay an additional $20-30 for content that has been conveniently left out of the game, then made available immediately upon release.

Golf Club gives me limitless courses and an amazing online experience for $35, and they're still adding FREE updates to the game. I could care less about the PGA license honestly.

When I look at the trailer and the screenshots I can't be the only one that says "please don't be cgi" haha.

Very excited! Glad they designated all the fantasy stuff to a thing of its own and wont interfere with the game
