Rory McIlroy PGA Tour has a variety of courses to play on, and will pre-load all 18 holes for each course to reduce the loading time – previous games loaded one hole at a time, which made the experience pretty slow. Players can play a variety of the PGA’s top tournaments and championships, including the Masters.
Being on the current generation of gaming hardware, this new PGA title looks and feels impressive, too. The graphics look amazing, and the game’s physics feel pretty solid.
