It's one thing to spice up otherwise
cookie-cutter games with popular icons, but making a golf game that looks like every
other golf game except that you get Sonic as your caddy instead of some underprivileged inner city youth is like throwing salt on the wounds of gamers who grew up loving the
inexplicably blue hedgehog back when his games were still, you know,
good. It makes one wonder if since pushing out
horribly broken sequels hasn't lined their pockets with gold, perhaps Sega has just given up completely.
Between this and the
Olympics it seems as if Sonic will be appearing less and less in "real" games and instead becoming akin to that washed-up B horror movie actor who still attends all the conventions and milks every last fan for
everything they're worth. They couldn't even program Sonic to look enthusiastic, so I think it's safe to say this game is dialing it in. From Mars.

At least Sonic seems to have a good golf clap.
Because if we keep on taking it up the ass, one day gold will come out there.
He just stands there while the child does the shot.
Rez 2. Make it happen and all is forgiven.
I think what we have here is a lame golf game that they threw the Sonic characters into just to move a few copies. This game would not have sold otherwise, just look at it. Skateboarding couldn't even save this pile.
It's just...god I sat here for 15 minutes trying to come up with something and it bored me so much my brain couldn't process my thoughts anymore.
But anyway, Sonic should be in Super Smash Bros Brawl. Anyone agree, disagree?
HUH HUH!
Keep the sonic hate to yourselves
if sonic can help sell copies, so be it. but honestly... haven't his recent terrible games tainted his reputation to the point where less people will buy it? at least secret rings tried. shadow did not.
Ironic that the fastest thing alive playes pawn to the slowest-paced game ever.
Here, sonic does NOTHING, he's your damn caddy. It'd be like if in Mario Kart, the characters were just in your pit crew.
