The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

A calm, measured round of golf that rewards careful precision across faithfully recreated courses rather than fast-paced excitement.

About

Go on the links with EA Sports' PGA TOUR '98. The game features five championship courses: the exclusively licensed Pebble Beach Golf Links, The Bay Hill Club, TPC of Scottsdale, Colonial Country Club, and TPC at Sawgrass. Each course has been designed using actual blueprints of the real courses, resulting in amazingly realistic graphics. Every hole features the real characteristics and surroundings of the real thing, including trees on the fairways, sloping hills, huge bunkers, and tricky greens. Compete as or against 14 PGA Tour pros, including Mark O'Meara, Lee Janzen, Davis Love III, and Brad Faxon. All 14 pros' swings and unique post-shot reactions were digitized into the game to give you the most realistic golf experience imaginable.
