Disappointment is an emotion that you should prepare to become well acquainted with when you play this game for the first time. EA is famous for it's "It's in the game!" slogan, but this time around it is most definitely NOT in the game. I should have learned my lesson after watching them completely gut game modes and options out of Madden 15 and NHL 15, but nope, here I am again with a copy of a game that feels unfinished and hollow. From the lack of playable golfers to the pretty meager course selection EA Sports Rory McIlroy PGA Tour seems like a game were no corner went uncut. As someone who loves to see a representation of my ugly mug in a game, the character creation tools were the last straw for me. Hopefully you look like one of the 11 preset faces that they give you, otherwise you're out of luck. EA's new slogan should be "It's in the game....unless it's beards...those aren't in the game".
The sad part is, the actually golfing gameplay is pretty solid, but I just can't look past how poorly thrown together the whole package is. I can't recommend buying this game unless they update it significantly through patches, and even then I'm not sure EA deserves to be rewarded for this type of game design.

In a gaming world full of first person shooters and other generic genres it was nice to play something fresh for a change. This game has an original concept and looks absolutely beautiful. These are some of the best graphics I've seen on the 360 to date. The cities in the game feel alive and are filled with people that you must work your way through. I recommend this game to anyone looking for a new gaming experience. Once you play it you'll feel compelled to tell your friends about it.
What's great about it: Unique gameplay. Amazing graphics. Fluid animations.
What's not so great: Slightly repetitive. Controls take a bit of getting used to.
