"Well. It's that time again, time for you to finally NOT do another Sims review."

No kidding. With a new game coming out, and the mass amount of my subs that constantly demand more Sims, expect lots more too! But til then, it's time for me to indulge the crap out of my DOS gaming love.

Gotta love those individually-loading trees. Also, "dongle" is a funny word.

I love the way manuals we're done back then. It's a shame they're practically dead since the invention of in-game tutorials. Well done, great video!

Pretty sure that "I think you hit the tree, Jim" quote is in every Access golf game, right through the Microsoft era to Links 2003.

This game really intrigues me, as I only ever played Microsoft Golf and a few of the later Tiger Woods games, from like 2008 on. The level of detail that they had even back then is very cool. The lack of innovation in golf games since then is not so cool. Basically every game has always been exactly the same, you aim, choose a club, set your power and try to hit it straight. The console versions were always better to me because they had a better (read: different) control scheme where your power was based on how you moved the analog stick, rather than the "click 3" method, but that was really the only difference. Have you ever seen a golf game that was really innovative? Oh, and I don't count the Worms games as legitimate Golf, but I have only ever played a few minutes before rage quitting because of awkward issues on my PC.

Ah yes, have still never gotten around to playing MS Golf very much, but I'd like to sometime!

Loved it when they were in full color and had classy illustrations and extra stuff within

Oh my. I have just remember when I was able to play music on Windows 3.1 with the PC speaker. I remember it worked very nicely, except for the fact Windows froze each times I tried to play music and had to reset. It didn't matter since it didn't took much for my 5 years old self to have fun around these things.

Yeah, the only innovative golf games I can think of are those that add some kind of gimmick (Ninja Golf, Outlaw Golf, Links LS eXtreme) or add a lot of customization and/or a progression system (The Golf Club, Powerstar Golf, even some of the newer PGA Tour series). The base gameplay can only change so much I guess, but yeah, the newer console ones I prefer with the analog stick method. Man, I've played more golf games than I realized, haha.

Oh yeah, I remember freezing many a Windows 3.1 session with those PCM PC speaker drivers! Was awesome to be able to do though, still wanna feature these PC speaker innovations in a video sometime

Even I try as hard as I can I think the first game I remember was Jazz Jackrabbit 2. I think even Addy Junior came later (It is like the German answer to jumpstart (I think it is only in german but if you ever find it, just check it out anyway)) I mean not even the dos games came before. I think Digger was my first dos game. But I love JJ2 it runs still without any combability mode or administrator settings. I ever wanted to test it on Win8 but till Win7 it just runs and runs. They just programmed it right I guess, but I bet it was more a fluke that they picked the one way to program it that it never dies, figuratively.

And btw. I loved and still love Golfgames I think back then I had a Microsoft Golf. I bet it is flying trough our house. Maybe I find it again and than I check it out again.

After watching the Test Drive 4 video, I immediately thought of "Mean 18", Accolade's golf game which came out the same year as Leaderboard. My dad had Mean 18 on his XT clone system when I was a wee toddler. At that age I didn't understand anything about clubs, the arrows on the putting green, and all that technical stuff, all I knew was hold space to fill the bar, let go at the top, and hit it again just before the gauge goes into the red bit. The man swings and the ball goes... places... Repeat that enough times and eventually the ball goes into the hole! Ah the ignorance of youth!
