PGA Tour (EA) Video Game Series
A series of realistic golf simulations. The series was created by Electronic Arts corporation and ranks among the top of the most prestigious brands in the publishing portfolio of the American video game giant.
Genesis of the series PGA Tour is connected with the acquisition by Electronic Arts of the license rights to produce games branded with the logo of the American Professional Golfers Association (PGA). This resulted in a simulation released in 1990. PGA Tour Golf. Subsequent installments of the series were released at one- or two-year intervals until the release of the game PGA Tour Gold in 1998. That same year, the publisher tied up a deal with Tiger Woods. The name of the famous golfer was included in the title of the series starting with Tiger Woods PGA Tour 99 (1998) through to Tiger Woods PGA Tour 14 (2013).
In total, over the course of nearly 25 years, the series lived to see 24 installments (not counting spin-offs like CyberTiger and games designed for cell phones), hosting on all popular hardware platforms. According to conservative estimates, by November 2013 the games of the series PGA Tour had been purchased by more than 30 million players worldwide.
The game is based on a simple concept. The player can take on the role of one of golf's stars or create a fictional character of a professional golfer himself and take part in competitions played on famous courses.
The gameplay is oriented towards the simulation aspect, although facilitation options aimed at less experienced players are usually available. Practically all games in the series have an advanced physics engine, taking into account a number of parameters affecting the force, direction of the bounce or behavior of the golf ball in flight. This element is also subject to regular improvements.
From the very beginning, the series PGA Tour has been characterized by high-quality audiovisual design. Especially in the newer games of the series, great care is noticeable in reproducing not only the silhouettes of golfers, but also the shape and characteristic elements of individual golf courses.
