It doesn't seem that many games are released in Europe before they are in the U.S., but ProStroke Golf: World Tour 2007 was released last month in Europe, and publisher Oxygen Interactive (No, not the women's tv channel) recently announced the game will make it across the pond Nov. 10.
In addition to the release date, Oxygen also released information about how it's highly-touted "Prostroke" control system, which supposedly gives the player complete control of their shot, actually works.
The press release goes into painful detail about the shot, and I'm sure you probably don't want to read it all. Basically, you start your swing just like any other golf game by aiming the direction of your shot, but after you select your aim, you can zoom in even further to more accurately aim your shot. The actual swing is started by pressing and holding the R shoulder button. Once you've attained the desired power, you press the L shoulder button then release the R button to start the downswing. When the power gauge reaches close to zero, you release the L button, and you're shot is off.
Pretty simple, eh?

Well, films on UMD are pretty terrible, seeing as you can buy them cheaper or download them for free onto a MS duo, but UMDs such as the Silent Hill Experence are awesome!
The Silent Hill Experience had graphic novels, game trailers, the secret endings from the games which were hard to get, a best of compilation from the soundtracks, interviews with people who worked on the games.
I think things like that are what Sony needs to release more of, Id love a Shadow of the Colossus media compilation, or a Final Fantasy one.

Finally a Pro Golf game that looses the crappy nub. Why EA can't just embrace the Hot Shots Golf mechanic?
