More Links

There have been many golf video games on consoles in the past three decades, and certainly a few in particular stand out. Today's golf video games pretty much amount toTiger Woods and a few arcade-style releases. But of course you have the old PGA Tour games, the simple yet fun Golf back on the NES, Golden Tee (especially when having some beers) and even Microsoft Golf. More recently, the non-continuation of the Links games from 2003-2004 still bothers some players.

However, one game from the past that has quietly gone under the radar is Pebble Beach Golf Links, released back on the Genesis and SNES in 1992. By no means a flashy, branded release, this game is focused on delivering a simulation experience on just one course. To that end, this title, particularly in the Genesis release, succeeds at that goal.

PGA Tour Golf (DOS) was pretty amazing when it came out in 1994.

I remember installing it for the first time and being blown away by the course graphics and swing animations.
