John Daly's ProStroke Golf is an interactive game with a number of fully licensed courses and five different play modes. Put the ball in play with the revolutionary design and realistic physics of ProStroke View and Prostroke Swing! John Daly's ProStroke Golf also includes many different game modes, realistic golf physics and commentary by the famous voices of golf delivering the complete golfing experience for golf fans, sports fans and gamers
GAME MODES
Quick Game
Practice, play on your own, or play with up to three other players (human and/or computer) on a single console. Choose from a number of preset players to play as or compete against. How you fair in this mode does not count towards your Career profile statistics.
Or you can play single player, match play (two or four player) and foursome play, to hone your skills!
Career Mode
Career mode is the crux of the game and can be broken down into two main game modes - Challenge & Tournament.
- Challenge Mode
Take on John Daly in a series of challenges to unlock the tournament on that particular course. At the start of the game only Mystic Rock is available to play in Challenge Mode. Beating John on each course also unlocks it in Quick Game and Practice. You will challenge him in driving, putting, and approach play, pulling it all together for a great round of golf!
- Tournament
Each of the twelve courses has a tournament associated with it. The tournaments are unlocked once you have beaten John during the Challenge on that particular course. All tournaments use the Strokeplay scoring system and each one has an objective for you to triumph. Tournaments can last from single days to four day tournaments!
12 COURSES
We have secured both interesting and challenging courses, designed by some of the greatest names in world golf.
Ballesteros, Faldo and Woosnam were three of the "Big Five" generation of European golfers, all born within 12 months of one another, all of whom have won majors, and made Europe competitive in the Ryder Cup.
The Shire London (only course in England designed by Ballesteros) is laid out like few other golf courses in the world. There are six par 5s, six par 4s and six par 3s, and on both the front nine and the back nine, no two consecutive holes are the same par, with equal numbers of par 3s, 4s and 5s. This gives maximum variety, and maximum enjoyment - a core philosophy of Seve's designs.
Hailed as one of the finest recently-built golf courses in England, Chart Hills is the British architectural debut of six times Major winner, Nick Faldo. There are 18 very distinctive holes at Chart Hills which, collectively, demand a great variety of shot-making skills, making this a very strategic test and a real thinking mans golf course. More than anything, Faldo wanted to design a course that would offer different challenges to different players.
We also have The Brabazon (at Belfry) which doesn't really need introducing. After all, it's unique. This course has played host to more Ryder Cups than any other course on the planet - four in total. The excitement comes from playing memorable and familiar holes- there is more water on the Brabazon than just about any other inland course in the British Isles- the course has two outstanding holes, which have been popularised - the 10th and 18th.
There's a strong connection with our title to the Ryder Cup and this is something we have planned with our release date in mind.
We are also pleased to announce that Mystic Rock, designed by the legendary Pete Dyer is also featured in the game.

Physics based, built from the ground up with move in mind, John Daly was influential in the design, once he started playing with the move to give it a more real world feel.

The ProStroke View gives you the perfect, first person view for you to shape your shot. In this view you can craft your shot, from the position of your feet, opening and closing the clubface and your swing
PROSTROKE VIEW
If any of you guys or girls that are interested in this game please chime in and or assist in the building of this thread. Just remember I don't know what the hell I'm doing as far as posting pics, gifs, and videos.
Not the greatest looking game and the clothing is a little on the "LOUD" side, but the golf is what intriguing, its just looks like golf and far superior to what's on the market right now as far as "motion controls" go.

Cons:
the faults with the game become more apparent poor quality graphics, commentary that doesnt match up to the action, the chore of having to face off against Daly to unlock single-player tournaments, Dalys voiceover work being subpar (thats being kind) and the general feeling of inaccuracy with the pad controls, thanks to a lack of real feedback on your shots.
Pros:
You should play John Dalys ProStroke Golf with Playstation Move its been built from the ground up with the motion controller in mind and it shows. This plays one of the closest approximations to golf weve yet seen in a game, with intuitive, natural use of Move and well, you have to put effort in to hit the ball hard. Which is fun.
Move is integrated well, so a few plus points for that. But without the impressive controls were left with a rather empty experience. It lacks the personality we wouldve hoped for from a game based on Daly and generally plays a very standard if not more in-depth than what were used to game of golf.
Final Verdict
Not a great opening salvo from Tigers new challenger, but impressive Move implementation means its one to watch in future. Eve 7.0/10
