Well? Level Me Up!


"Golf is a game that is played on a five-inch course - the distance between your ears."

-Bobby Jones, Legend Golfer


Golf is a thinking gentleman's sport. Anyone can whack a golf ball; all it takes is a stick and some stamina. However, it takes a golfer to guide the ball to the right direction - and that takes more brain than muscle. It may be the reason why most people try golfing after work; to shift from the multitasking to the focus mode. It helps the mind relax more by just thinking of how to putt that golf ball. It sure beats thinking of how to juggle five projects at once.

Now you can experience golf in the safety of your own home: SyNET Entertainment just released, Shot-Online. The company boasts that it already has over 1 million players all over the world. It is the world's first full 3D PC online MMO Golf game with some RPG elements thrown into the mix. The in-game characters has the ability to level up like the usual RPG heroes. There will also be some guilds involved.

Regarding the sport side, the golf dynamics is supposed to be dead on with its real counterpart. The game includes 8 challenging, varied golf courses, and different camera angles to assist the gamers in swinging the ball. Buyers get an automatic $20 cybercash, an entry to exclusive tournaments, and a lottery ticket to win a set of $100 golf clubs. Virtual, of course. MSRP: $29.99, available now.
