They could always setup a camera/phone and record that way. There are plenty of stands to hold a phone or camera stationary and then just play the game in front of it. Only problem is any movement of the Vita itself will obviously be shaky on video, but it's a far cheaper solution.Uh.. AFAIK it'll cost you to stream it...

Ouch, I would hate to lose based on points.AMillsy wins on a freaking tie breaker. LOL. Points. 0-0 was the golf score. I blew it on the last hole. I was two strokes ahead. Hit the water. Good match.
That was a crazy finish! We'll definitely have to play again sometime.AMillsy wins on a freaking tie breaker. LOL. Points. 0-0 was the golf score. I blew it on the last hole. I was two strokes ahead. Hit the water. Good match.
Sorry, been laid out for a few days! Patching now, will get us started tonight.Awesome, just waiting on the Breakfuss/Pete matchup. I updated the tournament and put it in the OP to keep track of it easier.
Syn and Ikeda, you guys can play your 2nd round matchup whenever.
It's honestly a ton easier to get the special shot trophies than the hole in one/double eagle. Those are pure luck, you can at least help yourself with special shots by using a course that has a tee near the edge of the green and spin clubs.It's fun reading and picking up some tips from you guys. Love the casual gold but I'm still real green at this game.
There are some crazy trophies for this game. I don't think I will be getting most of them. How tough do you guys think the homing, etc. special shots that have to hit the pin are? Just chip it as closely as possible? And you need to be level 3 loyalty to do any of them, right?
What's the best way to grind out loyalty and points? Just lots of the challenge games?
Good game. It was... -4 me, -3 you before that double bogey I think. Was shaping up to be a good finish-7 Syn -2 Ike. Stupid 17 double bogey. Maple 9 In, Unlimited power (though not abused)
We're on the 6th or 7th hole, I believe. I'm definitely going to lose, and I imagine you will when you play him, lol. Still invaluable since I'm picking up tips on how to manipulate my swing and power. Good stuff.So if breakfuss and handsomepete don't play, I get a bye to the next round, right? ;-)
Also, if we're able to figure out a way to make it more like an actual golf tournament, I'd be game.
I'd say you're doing dandy. At least you're hitting closer to the middle of the swing bar thing, I seem to be having some trouble there. I like the turn based setup, I'd probably like it more if everyone else wasn't waiting on us!We're on the 6th or 7th hole, I believe.

I think I played two iterations of HSG on ps2 somewhat obsessively and then didn't play again until the vita version (also obsessively). It's my favorite sports video game series of all time. I'm not nearly as good as the folks who head the leaderboards for the daily tourneys, but I've played the vita courses often enough now to at least know where not to hit it and that helps me a lot.I'm getting a vita later this week and would like to be involved in and future HSG games. CAG/PSN = hostyl1/hostyl176 respectively.
Also a question, are most of you new to HSG in general or just the Vita game in particular?
*blushes*Having heard the conversations.. Syn is probably the most practiced amongst us. I haven't played the rest of ya'll but in hearing the conversations it'd range from novice to decent to versed.
Syn was like a pro. Even his worst shot was better than any I could do. And there were quite a few where he chipped a shot from a ways a way and only missed the hole because the ball rolled around it or just barely missed it.
super frontspin - increases forward roll = hold down on strength, up on impact (req perfect impact)Yeah, fun games. If anyone else wants to play an impromptu online game (live), just send me a message. Is there a way in the game to invite someone to a live (not turn-based) game? I couldn't find any way to do that.
Also, does anyone have tips on how exactly you get the super spin and stuff like that? One time and one time only I had the ball stop dead and spins on fire and goes backward. I have never been able to repeat it. I know you have to press down when you set the strength, and then press down again when you hit, and you have to get a Note for timing, but there's some detail here I'm missing because I do that and get a note and still I don't get that burning rubber backspin.
a related irritant is that even with a very high spin rating AND if you manage to hit the pin with super backspin turning it in to a homing ball, on rare occasions the homing ball can _miss_ the cup.Ah. Not sure what good it is if it happens randomly. Doesn't seem like you can rely on it then at all.
Finally, someone hopefully on my skill level then.Finally got my Vita in today. Look forward to playing y'all PSN=hostyl176.
Excellent I JUST started a new job, but tomorrow night or Friday night would be great. I would prefer real-time so we can get this out in about 15-20 minutes.Alright Syn, looks like it's you and me to finish this bad boy off. Hit me up on ye olde psn at your leisure!
p.s. I've been doing turn based due to my weird availability, but I can make realtime work Thurs or Fri. Looking forward to it!
for what it's worth that was my single best round ever on that course. sorry you had to be on the receiving end of it!Just a heads-up, SynGamer: handsomepete/MildObstruction is crazy-good.
He dropped 7 birdies and a chip-in eagle against me to win -9 to -1. Nice win, man!
Also...I think it would be fun to try and set up a live multi-player tourney since we can have up to 8 people at once.
It seems like a majority of people in the league (at least the ones on my friend list) have been online between 8 PM and 11 PM eastern time this week. Maybe we just pick a day and time and see who shows up? Someone would need to be the "host" player.Live 8 player would be fun. Figuring out a time when all 8 people can play could be tricky, though.
It was an excellent (and quick!) match -7 to -6! I took screenshots after each hole, I'll try to post them in a few minutes so people can see a play-by-play.I bow to Syn's golfing prowess.
