ProStroke Golf: World Tour 2007 is a golf simulation game developed by Gusto Games and published by Oxygen Interactive. Released in 2006 for multiple platforms including the Xbox, the game aims to provide a more precise and immersive golfing experience through its unique control system.
The standout feature of the game is the “ProStroke” control mechanic, which allows players to manually adjust stance, swing path, and club face using analog inputs. This system offers a high degree of control over each shot, distinguishing it from more arcade-style golf games. Players can also switch to a first-person perspective during the swing for added immersion.
The Xbox version includes a full career mode where players create a custom golfer and compete in tournaments across international courses. The game features a roster of professional golfers, commentary by former European Tour pro Alan Green, and various play modes including Match Play, Stroke Play, and Training. Course environments are fully rendered with varying terrain, weather effects, and realistic physics.
ProStroke Golf: World Tour 2007 received mixed reviews, with praise for its innovative swing system but criticism for graphics and presentation. The Xbox version does not have a Metacritic score.
