Anyone pick up Hot Shots for the PSP yet?

I just unlocked the 4th course, and it is starting to get much harder. Like btmmayor, I use the big air clubs and balls. The only Hot Shots game I had played before this was the first one on the PSX, so the series isn't stale for me. I'm still having a blast with this game, I've hardly touched MLB since I picked up Hot Shots.

Thanks. That's an excellent suggestion.

What do you have to do to unlock additional courses? I would at least like to unlock the second course on my own ASAP.

You unlock courses as you increase levels. To increase your level, you have to get something like 8 gold stars. To get the gold stars, you have to win challenge events that have a gold star on them. I'm on senior level right now I think, one below grand. I just unlocked the desert course, and it is pretty tough, with lots of O.B. areas right off the fairways.

I really enjoy the designs of the 3 courses I have seen so far. The first one is just a plain, vanilla course. With the second course though you really have to think twice on some of the par 5's if you want to make it in 2. Those downhill slopes to the green with water directly behind them are particularly fun.

The first Hot Shots on the PS2 had terribly plain course design in my opinion. This game is much, much better in that regard.

The second course is a lot better and has really increased my enjoyment of the game.
