PGA Tour 2K23 

 

I am very thankful I had the money to purchase a copy of PGA Tour 2K23 on the PS4. PGA Tour 2K23 can also be found on the Personal Computer, Playstation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X. I had fun and frustration playing PGA Tour 2K23 for a live stream. Noah and I have also played PGA Tour 2K23 after that live stream and tested some different things. This franchise took a year off last year and has come back with at least one really important improvement.

The best way PGA Tour 2K23 has improved from PGA Tour 2K21 is to add a three button control scheme when hitting the ball. I like this much better than moving a joystick back and forward and hope to get it lined up just right with the appropriate amount of power. This is a major control improvement that helps make PGA Tour 2K23 much more playable. The bad news is there is still no guide line option allowed when putting. We must guess based on the slope how we could angle our shot. This led to more frustration than anything else.

I also ran into a real problem with the pole in PGA Tour 2K23. I hit the pole more times than I could count. If PGA Tour 2K23 wants to be realistic then a person should be standing there and pull the pole out when the ball is getting close. I have seen this in golf. There is an option to have the pole gone but that hurts you in where to try and hit the ball. So there is a pro and con there if you choose that option. You may not hit it near the hole without seeing where to go.

There is some bad language in PGA Tour 2K23. I could have done without it personally. The music can be easily turned off if you are worried about copyright claims. PGA Tour 2K23 looks nice and those commentators are fun to listen to. I like the different golf courses and being able to create our own. PGA Tour 2K23 comes with offline, and online play. Single player and local multiplayer are also included in PGA Tour 2K23.

PGA Tour 2K23 is so close to being an amazing game and an amazing franchise. Give us some guideline on where the ball will curve on the slopes when putting. I would love to see that option available for the more casual game play experience, or even give us only so many of them for eighteen holes. There are certain options that could be done. PGA Tour 2K23 should know where the ball will go based on the slope of the hills.
