 Fun but frustrating July 29, 2008
Like all golf games both video and real, when you hit the ball wrong, nothing seems to go right. This game is as fun as the other reviewers say but just when you think you have it figured out...
 Excellent game all around! April 2, 2005

I have been playing golf games since the original Atari and have found there are usually two types; the serious ones like Tiger Woods and the whacky amusing ones like Hot Shots 3.
Personally, I like Hot Shots better. The graphics are wonderful. The characters are solid and entertaining and the caddies are passable enough. However, it's the gameplay that keeps you coming back for more. From playing all the way thru the tourney mode, to challenging a friend in the skins competition or just playing the short course. This game has a little of everything.
If you want to hurry the game along, a simple press of the button right after the swing and you go straight to the end of the shot. You can play a short round in about 6 minutes and 18 holes in about 12 minutes this way.
And the game keeps all of your stats and grades you. So, the more you play, the more your stats tell how you are playing each course.
And believe me, there is nothing more satisfying then droppping in a hole in one (or two!) on the short course. It's not extrememly difficult to do, but it ain't easy either!
All in all, Hot Shots 3 gives you plenty of control over your shots, plenty of game options, the ability to speed up the game and the graphics and characters are a joy. Plus, once you get used to putting, it becomes pretty intuitive.
Pure and simple, I love this game!

Hot Shots Golf 3 is a great game. It throws Tiger Woods out the window and tosses him out of the world ranking again too. When I first fot this game as a greatest hit, I couldn't figure out the controls, but I found a guide online and found out the controls are easy as can be. Tournament mode was fun, but I like unlocking new characters the most. Mitch, the Sasquatch is the best one. I like that you can tell which one of your friends is the best. I'm semi- pro. Since there aren't any good golf titles and you like golf like me, I highly reccomend it.
Come on inetria, do your thing! May 14, 2004

I sold my PS2 last year for an XBox but I kept this game, slim chance that I got another PS2. I really missed Hotshots Golf 3. I would drink beer after work and play a round of 18. I missed it. I missed the bet that me and a buddy had for the first hole in one either of us would score. The bet was to do shots of whiskey in celebration. Neither of us ever had that whiskey until two weeks ago. With March Madness winnings I bought me a new PS2.HSG3 is a golf game that doesn't take itself serious. The taunts are really funny and will be stuck in your head for days. The courses feel very lifelike, full of colors and unlockable animals, great weather effects. Since I sold my memory card last year, I am playing through the tourney mode, unlocking all the clubs and other goodies once again. If you are looking for a serious golf game with collared shirt stiffs, this is not your game. The Power Meter system in this games works just fine for me, but I hear the controls in Tiger are really good as well. I'm not a golfer and don't have any serious plans of ever becoming one. I've been on a golf course less times than I have fingers on my left hand. Don't even know why I actually ever bought this game, in all truth. Good reviews I guess, something different from all the action titles and RPGS out there. Not too serious a game if you don't want it to be, but the depth is there if you're looking for it; about 12 unlockable players, tourneys, unlockable clubs and courses. Great fun. ;o)

This is a great game because it last for a long time. I go this a year ago and I still play it alot. If you are going for something not as serious as tiger woods but still the same true golf physics.
