New 3D Golf Simulation: Devil’s Course

There are a ton of golf games on the Genesis. Some are true simulations, and others try to spice things up with a bit of fantasy or putt-putt mechanics. T&E Soft made such an attempt with Devil’s Course, which has some of the more outlandish and imaginative courses on the Genesis. Unfortunately, this import-only title suffers intensely from the pains of 16-bit 3D mechanics.

A word to the wise though: bring a Mega Mouse or a six-button controller.

Math Blasters is a good example of a title that looks great and is fun, but control issues keep it from going to the head of the class.
