Open Tee adds Wi-Fi multiplayer support to the Hot Shots Golf series for the PSP. Like the others in the series, this game features realistic golf courses with animated characters rather than real-life equivalents.
In single-play mode, you can win goods for your character to wear, accessory pieces to improve your golf game, new golf clubs and balls, and new playable characters. Single-play modes include stroke play, which allows you to play a free round of golf alone; three different challenge modes (stroke – play against nineteen computer characters in a tournament; match – a one-on-one game against a computer character with the first player to go ahead by three holes winning automatically unlocking items for your character, and VS – play against a computer character like in match play but instead of getting things you open the surface you are playing as) and a multiplayer mode. A training option also allows you to practice a single hole or course under certain conditions, such as wind direction, weather, etc. You can advance in rank by winning tournaments when playing in single-player mode. Youu will gain access to new courses and caddie as you progress through the rankss.
Match play – one on one play from 3 to 18 holes; tournament – a stroke-style game with up to 8 players on 9 to 18 holes; and Putting Challenge – one on one game where you compete for Putt Points using only a putter on a green with several spots and the object being to sink your ball in a single putt, the farther the site, the more Putt Points you get. The single player option is also featured in Putting Challenge. In multiplayer mode, special rules can be imposed, such as 2 points added to sand traps, no backspin, XL Cup (a gigantic cup is utilized), Crazy Gauge (the cursor on the power gauge for hitting the ball leaps around), and so on. When it’s your turn, you can tease your opponent by pushing the direction or other buttons. The taunts vary depending on the character.
Selecting Data from the main menu will reveal your single-player golf records, history (your previous achievements – medals, etc.), and films of shots to be stored for later watching. Selecting Options from the main menu allows you to customize the game further, such as camera angles, accessible mode, and viewing stored movies.
