Super Stardust HD developer Housemarque brings Golf: Tee It Up! to XBLA ... and an incredible likeness to Sony's Hot Shots Golf franchise to mind. Endless rounds of this golf game for beginners and seasoned vets alike (dare we say it's "golf for everyone"?) will set you back 800 MS points ($10).
This Wednesday: Schizoid and Golf: Tee It Up! tee off on XBLA
18
We've been covering Schizoid, the first home-grown XNA game to hit XBLA, since this time last year. Now it's finally blasting bumping its way onto the Marketplace, unique gameplay mechanic in tow. Priced at 800 MS points ($10), the game is entirely co-op centric, tasking players with ramming their ship (or ships, should they feel up to the dual-ship-controlling "Überschizoid" mode's challenge) into enemies of the same color. Play with another Live user or let the CPU control ship two.

Even if it were, would a fl0w rip-off really warrant the use of 'OMG?'

That is not what you want to see when you get your urology test results back.

Cool. I love big-head golf games.
And I have seen Schizoid -- it is nothing like FLOW.

@erico316,
First thing's first; you might want to think about applying yourself in school a bit more. A solid understanding of grammar and spelling can only help you later on in life. ;)
Now, as for having to pay for gamerpic/themes? Sure, some of them. Some are free too. Games come with them sometimes (gamerpics that is) and of course if you have the camera, you can make whatever you please into a pic. Of course you can also use any jpg you'd like as a background, thus negating the need for purchased themes really... but you already knew this since you own all three systems, right? As for the cost of live... the quality of Sony/Nintendo's online offerings has more than justified the cost of live.
I don't think anyone was picking on the PS3 either... more your ignorant comment that Schizoid is a flOw ripoff... have you seen a single video of Schizoid in action? The two games aren't similar.

Let me try to adress what I think you are saying.
I and most everyone else here don't have our own system. We have the systems sold by Sony, Nintendo and MS. So, when we have all of those systems, how are we supposed to look at our system having the bigger flaw? In part, you are a fanboy because you support only one and blow off what is done by the other systems in defense of that choice.

I'd been contemplating buying Hot Shots Golf: Out of Bounds ($46 used), but if Golf: Tee It Up! is the same experience for $10 then I'll just get that instead. Then I can put the money I saved toward HSG:Open Tee 2 for PSP ($19 used).
