This is the team behind ForeGolf if anyone's ever heard of them...I've not...probably cause they're stateside....golf simulators as such.
Had a dig around on their backgrounds regarding gaming (will refrain from posting what I found on here though) but they seem to have a pretty decent infrastructure (possibly because they wrote the stuff up themselves).....if anyone's heard of Floridian based Erik Lugris-Founder & co maybe they can chime in.
My own personal thoughts are.....ever since day one I've played WGT because of their HD graphics...and real life golf courses...not just non existent made up courses like other rivals, which is a huge fail....and is the reason why I've only ever hit 3 or 4 holes on TWO in the time I've been a member here and that was only cause WGT were doing their weekly update.
I also come here daily to meet up with, play with and chat with friends I've made over the last 2 & 1/2 years.....so my loyalties are with WGT.
Do WGT have anything to worry about? Well from what I see, this new site seems more a rival & competition to TWO in my opinion. At least TWO use existing courses.
I enjoy WGT too much & have met too many decent people to go elsewhere. Also I like what Chad & co have done here, remembering that he had the vision and followed it through...and it's still growing....where as this other mob have been really slow to get off the starter blocks. I like to watch successful sites grow and where I can I will always offer my support in way of opinions and $$$
From just having an idea about an online game to the game we have today (5 years later)....that's taken some sustainance and a ton of hard work and a task only on par with trying to steal Lvietri's last pizza slice during Friday night poker.
Sure....I like to squeal / whine / moan my head off at times.........but then again, you should hear the profanities & expletives I belt out from time to time on real life courses.....so in that aspect WGT again is realistic enough :)
It's too easy to say some folks will walk from here over to this new site, but this new site will also attract new players to WGT. Life's a two way street.
Best for folks to wait and see what their game is actually like because the internet is full of great ideas & empty promises.
For me....well I'm a WGT'er all the way.
I want to play St Andrews not St Bartholemies.....Royal St George not Royal St Georgina...Olympic not Commonwealth....Congressional not Kengressional :)
Real life courses in superior quality HD graphics.......anything else is such a fail and any company looking to compete against WGT.....well they've already missed the bus by quite a few years. WGT are a tough act to follow....they're improving constantly & moving forward all the time.
This is just my nickle
