Thankfully, Powerstar Golf makes your time on the links enjoyable, whether or not you have any interest in sinking money into microtransactions to get some extra goodies. This game covers well-trodden territory, but the way that it tracks your performance and the performance of your friends makes it a fine fit for the Xbox One's launch lineup, and a pleasant way to spend some time.
Powerstar Golf manages to successfully marry an old-school arcade golf experience with some decidedly new-school ideas. The lack of proper online multiplayer is a bit of a blow, but the Rivals mode has the potential to provide an ongoing challenge after you’ve scooped up all of the career medals. It’s not a complete hole in (Xbox) One for golf fans, but it’s a good deal of fun if you desperately want to hit the links on your new machine.
Powerstar Golf borrows a lot of what works from other, better golf games, but does an admirable job being it’s the only golf game on the next-gen market. There’s a lot of content here for the price, but most of that content is hidden away in collectible card packs, which can suffocate your progress at times. Still, Zoe Mode has done a nice job with Powerstar, and with four courses and six characters, you shouldn’t run out of excuses to play a round any time soon.
