    My earliest memory was the console with paddles with the pong/ 4 types of tennis, squash, football whatever they were. Moved on to Atari 2600, 48k ZX Spectrum, Commodore 64, Commodore Amiga, Sega Megadrive, Ps1, Ps2, Ps3, Xbox 360, Xbox one. Still gaming on an older PC and Xbox series X.

    This game sucked away all my hours, and I don't even like golf.

    Amazing game. Loved releasing oil out the back of the car to sabotage the bad guys.

    Ahh Leaderboard (golf), it was very basic but that's what made it enjoyable. I remember when those sort of games tried to be too flashy, like Microprose Golf.
    Although it was a good novelty at first, being able to follow the ball through the air lol.
