The Golf Pro is Empire Interactive's first foray into golf sims. It is a standard 3rd person golf simulation with the addition of the mouse drive system introduced on Maxis's SimGolf and popularized on Sierra's Front Page Sports: Golf. Essentially what this system does is replace the swing bar and use a series of mouse movements and clicks to determine the power, accuracy and direction of the swing.
An add on pack for Links 2001. Included are four new Links courses (Thanksgiving Point, The Canyons Course at Bighorn, Pelican Hill 2001 version, and Banff Springs 2001 version), over 350 objects for use in the course designer, two tour players (Mike Weir and Keith Clearwater), and a Links LS course converter (this is needed to convert courses from previous versions of Links LS to Links 2001 format. There is a total of 36 courses this utility supports.)
Anstoss 4, which appeared exclusively on DVD in 2002, could no longer build on the success of its predecessor. The game had to be completely reimplemented because the code of Anstoss 3 was considered too confused to be able to use it. This, as well as the short development time of only 12 months, meant that the program suffered from a large number of bugs that made it almost unplayable. Furthermore, the text and 3D mode was seen as too weak by the fan base and the manufacturer Ascaron was asked to make significant improvements. The manufacturer decided not to fix the program errors with patches, but rather to bring a new, revised manager onto the market based on Anstoss 4.
Anstoss 4 is therefore considered to be the worst part of the Anstoss series, as it could not shine through playability, realism, or wit. Although the new database system, which now contained 145 countries, to which four leagues could be added, was praised by the manufacturer, it tended to cause very long waiting times, which massively delayed t
In 1997 Anstoss 2 was published. It was convincing with its wit, complexity, 2D scene mode and text mode. Good sales figures and good ratings (e.g. GameStar 83%) confirm this.
The menu navigation of the game changed completely. Now there was a bar in the lower part of the screen, which led the player through the individual screens.
Anstoss 2 specialized again completely in the job of the club manager. The developers took some of the weaknesses from Anstoss 1 and improved them. The opportunity to train in the 2nd Bundesliga and the then regional league (north, north-east, south, south-west) and in other countries (England, France, Italy, Spain) was particularly well received. In addition, the game was now playable indefinitely, which was very popular with the players. There was also a new game mode: "real managerial career". While in the soccer managers the player always had to choose his team himself before, when choosing this game mode, some rather weaker teams were thrown out with which the player could negotia

More statistics are presented to the player so that the player can decide what and when to do more easily.

PlayMaker Football unites three distinct modules into one game program. First, there is the Team Draft to "build" the team you need to best run your styles of offense and defense. Each player on the 30-man active roster (15 offense and 15 defense) has five ability categories: Speed, Strength, Agility, Intelligence, and Discipline. Each player can have up to 100 points assigned to each of the five categories.
Next there is the Chalkboard Editor. Here you will build your playbooks, designing offensive, defensive, and special teams plays. Each playbook can have hundreds of plays, allowing you to prepare for any contingency. You can also try out each play on the Practice Field option so you can check the timing on pass plays, blocking schemes, coverage assignments, pass routes, and blitz angles.
Finally, its time to play some football! You can let the computer call your game plan for you (based upon detailed Artificial Intelligence settings that you build into the playbook), or you can take charge and manually make a
