Since I've never played The Persona series yet, this is my favourite announcement from last night. HYPE!

Yeah but not too many cross over characters. Hot Shots has a certain art style and charm to it.
Well they can crossover, just Hot shots-ify them. Wouldnt be too hard at all.
Anything but this.

Didn't see it mentioned, but Clap Hanz is making the game (or at least is excited about being involved in it... can't imagine they wouldn't be the makers, but just to note.)

About time, I've been waiting for a Hotshot Golf announcement for PS4.
The downside is that is looks like the game is still very far away...

damn reading this thread got me hyped for the game, specially the feels Nightengale's idea gives
Tons of cosmetic DLC, core HSG gameplay intact, everybody's tennis DLC, Morpheus support. Ey could make it a really nice hotshots hub to last the generation.
I hope it isn't too far away. Lack of any gameplay footage is worrying, but they had 2015 titles showing nothing more than Cg trailers, so fingers crossed this is out in 2015 (worldwide)

As long as Clap Hanz is involved, it's a day one for me.

I can't believe how excited I am for this.
Am I misinterpreting your post or are you actually asking for DLC?
Anyway I would love to see the game have a mode that plays somewhat similar to HST on the PSP, that game was bloody brilliant.
Fuck is this shit..seriously?

we already had Kratos in HSG, if he can get in, everyone else can.
Will buy Ellie dlc and watch them bleep every word out of her.
Yes I am. Cosmetic DLC for characters makes sense and lets you personalise your game. And a paid for add-on for tennis would make sense to me.
Alternatively sell golf/tennis separately but they join up if you have both

Well it's been almost three years since the last hot shots, right? It must be pretty far along.

Build resort. Play golf on it.
I can get into this.

The artstyle seems a bit unusual for this series. It's not as cartoony at the previous HSGs, the environments look kind of realistic while the characters look like Mii's, I wonder if they are trying to appeal to the west for this title instead of just Japan.
Just wish we had a direct feed of the trailer.

Yeah bringing back hotshot tennis with this would be awesome
To be fair the courses were always quite realistic compared to what was possible at the time, just very bright and cheery. That's where Hot Shots has always been different from something like Mario Golf - the courses are very serious. So the new images make sense for a new Everybody's Golf. However the stylised characters may look further out of place now, it remains to be seen.
As for the person who wanted PS All-Stars Golf - good god no. Just... please no.
I'll see you there krae

who is Bob Green? fictional character like Kevin Butler? or actually someone from resort business working together with Sony?

Fictional
Probably three reasons for that. The first is that LittleBigPlanet is terrible, while Everybody's Golf has a track record of near perfection. You gain nothing from adding LBP into the mix.
The second is that creating a 'course designer' would take serious time and money, even more to get it to any kind of decent standard. That's not where their focus should be - it should be on core gameplay, game modes and their own course design. EG isn't going to sell millions so they need to be sensible with their budget, and they need to get the game out sometime in 2015.
The last is that in golf, course design is everything. I, like many people, would prefer a curated, specially designed experience in that regard, where every fairway, bunker and green has been played and tested hundreds of times before release. I find that level design tools rarely match what pro game designers can do with actual dev tools. I also prefer to learn a really great course inside out and try to master it rather than playing a new one each time. The 9 courses of Everybody's Golf for the Vita/PS3 was plenty for me. If we got up to 12 courses in the next one (after DLC etc) then I'd be more than happy.
As you say, the golf club is doing this if that's your bag. It looks damn underwhelming to me. And this one could yet have you building your own resort course, I suppose. We'll see what happens.
Hahaha my thoughts exactly.
No doubt..but how about not making me pay extra money for that after I already shelled out SEVENTY FUCKING BUCKS?
Afaik he's the owner of some of the biggest golf resorts in all of asia. Irc he's even in the Asian Version of the Forbes Top 100.
Dude, seriously?

make sure the pudding isn't too soggy but that just ruins everything
Interesting bump. I admire your enthusiasm though. Love these games too.
