"There's a well known English saying that you shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth. In the context of Golf Pro 2 (for more on the name, see the note at the end of this review), its availability for free with some of the Nokia S60 3rd Edition smartphones should, in theory, mean that noone's going to complain too much if the game itself disappoints.
However, there's a problem. With a really good game, the purchase price is irrelevant, you're going to be playing it for a dozen hours a week and whether it's free or costs 30 Pounds doesn't matter that much. In the case of the original Golf Pro Contest (for S60 2nd Edition devices), Rafe and I would each play it daily and rated it very highly indeed. And with sports simulations, it's not a question of working through some quick plot and then getting bored. In Golf Pro Contest, there was always last time's score to beat, and with different wind strengths and directions for every hole, every time. Yes, there were some flaws, such as the single course, the confusing wind indication and the occasional lie detection problems, but the sheer gameplay carried us through." Read it all here:
