Leaked 360 Avatar Golf footage emerges

Microsoft's answer to Wii Sports Resorts?
Leaked footage has appeared on YouTube of 360 Avatars playing golf on 360. We don't know if it's something to do with Project Natal or a separate game altogether but you can clearly see what Microsoft is going for. Take a look below. We wouldn't be surprised if this mysteriously disappears over the weekend...

Haha! Massive rip off of Wii Sports Golf! :lol: It looks EXCACTLY the same! lol

Whatever it is, it looked below average.

It didn't even look to be controlled by Natal either, which is even more pointless.

My guess is it'll be a cheap download game, with limited courses, etc.

Sorry if that sounded a bit negative, but I can't see many people getting excited about this one.

Looks alright probably going to be a new acvatar game for LIVE. the slight camera jerk at the begining make me think it won't be using natal.

Awaits tirade of morons proclaiming the death of MS or 'Core gaming. yadda yadda yadda.

It's got to be Natal, surely? If not, it is indeed a bit pointless. Still, it may just be a prototype MS have no intention of releasing.

I am kind of hoping Natal takes a bit more advantage of the 360's processing power.

You can clearly hear the sound of buttons clicking NOT NATAL, the second guy who goes click the buttons alot louder and it's defo using a controller.

These free avatar mini games could be a lot of fun!

The driving title (Joyride) announced at E3 & now avatar golf, i know a lot of live gamers who would enjoy these while waiting for the next 1 vs 100 show.
Looking forward to more being announced. :D

Didnt MS just announce you can use avatars in aracade games once you dont break their strict rules?

Wont this just be one of those games.....

decent online functionality on consoles not a bad achievement. Live might of been around last gen but it didn't really come into its own until the 360.

And your console telling you its ****ed. The two main achievements of MS sinse they started making consoles.

This isn't a new game as such. It's a Live Arcade game called "Golf: Tee It Up!", and has been available on Live for ages. The only new thing I can see in this clip, is the use of Avatars.
Posted by ParmaViolet
Ah, so it could either be a sequel - or, they've found a way to update it and include Avatars.

I hope it's the latter - would be great for some of the games already out there.

Either that or a spin off. Could be taking the Halo route. Golf; Tee it off - ODST. Ha ha, that could work.

Looks alot like the community game Easy Golf, but with avatars. Might be just the next update for this game now that they allow avatars to be used in these games.

Play Everybody's Golf: World Tour... it wipes the floor with both the golf part of Wii Sports and this game right here.

WTF. Microsoft honestly stop ripping off the wii please! About time they created something off their own backs for once and stopped trying to compete with another console when they have the share of the market already.

Ok scenario for you guys:

I have a wii which I just forked out money on. A lot to be precise because I wanted the wii motion plus and wii fit and all those little trimmings. Why would I go and buy a 360 to do exactly the same thing? :roll:
