BE THE BALL! LINKS EXPANSION PACK
VOLUME 2 SPOTTED ON STORE SHELVES
Microsoft today announced that Links
Expansion Pack Volume 2 is now available at retail locations throughout North
America for only $19.95 (U.S.). Links Expansion Pack Volume 2 will also be
available internationally; check local retailers for availability. Cyber-golfers
will now be able to play as tour pros Craig Stadler and Dan Forsman on four new
courses designed for play with Links 2001 or Links Championship Edition. Stadler
and Forsman join the Links pro lineup that already includes Sergio Garcia,
Arnold Palmer, Annika Sorenstam, Mike Weir, Keith Clearwater, and Hidemichi
Tanaka.
Links Expansion Pack Volume 2 owners
will be able to line it up in the natural desert terrain of Arizona’s Stone
Canyon Club or lakeside on the Robert Trent Jones Alabama Golf Trail‘s Links
Course at Grand National. Also, players can tee off on the newly-updated
dramatic cliff-lined fairways of The Fazio Foothills Course at Barton Creek, and
enjoy updated graphics on the panoramic scenery and challenge of Scottsdale‘s
Troon North. As an added bonus, PC golfers can enjoy Ayrshire Dunes (also known
as Northern Dunes), a fictional course created with the Arnold Palmer Course
Designer by Links enthusiast Mike Jones.
The Expansion Pack also adds over
300 new objects to the library of over 1,700 already available for the Arnold
Palmer Course Designer (APCD). These objects equip budding architects to create
breathtakingly beautiful courses with the APCD. Additionally, the Links 2001
Expansion Pack will contain the Links 2001 Course Converter that allows players
to convert up to 36 Links LS courses for play with Links 2001 (courses must be
previously owned), and the 1.1 update for the APCD.
Links Expansion Pack Volume 2
requires previous versions of Links 2001 or Links Championship Edition. Links
Championship Edition and Links 2001 are available at software retailers
nationwide.
