  • A full unedited 18 hole round on designer Andrew Jones' beautiful rendition of Augusta National Golf Club on Links 2003 for PC. In my opinion this is still easily the greatest PC golf game ever made, and the user community is still very active 19 years later with plenty of excellent new courses still being released pretty often.

    I like the realistic effect of sounding like they're talking on CB radios.

    My dad had this game growing up and I remember our computer running so slow with it installed. I still think the graphics aren't too bad for its time.

    I had every version of Links back in the day. Had every course that was available. Had so much fun playing on the Links tour! Thanks for the video!

    Andrew Jones and Mike Jones went on to create Perfect Golf in 2015 which I still play. I consider it the best golf game ever released for the PC and has the absolute best mouse control I have ever played, real time swing mouse or RTSM. It incorporates the swing path and tempo of a real golf swing. There were hundreds of courses rendered by players including most of the iconic real courses. There is still a community that plays it with weekly tournaments. It can still be purchased on Steam. Unfortunately Perfect Golf was bought by Trackman in 2019 or 2020 with Andrew and Mike moving there. They now are in charge of the creation of courses for the Trackman simulator. It was a real shame that the development of Perfect Golf did not continue after that. Even in it's present state it is a way more realistic and better game than the so called golf games put out like 2K21 and 2K23. It will be interesting to see how the new EA PGA Tour game in the spring of 2023 compares to PG.

      I did not know that....I tried Perfect Golf back when it still had the Nicklaus branding but I really had a hard time getting into it, it just didn't feel quite right for me. I will revisit it though.

    I didn't know this version and I am generally skeptical about early 3D games, I was about to get Links 1998 but then I trusted these comments and got 2003..... AND I AM SO HAPPY I DID!!! I'm loving every second of it, it is so relaxing and smooth

    I've been playing this golf sim since the Access days, and it's still the best golf sim for the PC, and it's free with more courses, also for free, than you can shake your putter at.

    Games like this and NFL 2K5 really make me wonder how developers figured out the key to smooth and realistic movement in games over 20 years ago and today’s games with all the new technology don’t even come to close this

      We had (cable-bound) MoCa systems since the late 70s / early 80s and some animators are quite good at doing this sort of stuff with traditional keyframe animation.
