It's a nice boon that the Links 2003 Championship Courses (containing 20 courses) was available the same day that Links 2003 shipped, making a total of 26 courses betwixt the two titles. This add-on to Links 2003 is also a good value at only 20 dollars.
About half of the courses are various selections from the Links LS libraries -updated with Links 2003 graphics and textures- and the other half are completely new add-ons. One should also take into account that you can convert ANY and ALL of your Links LS courses with the new Links 2003 course converter (on CD #3) which is an extreme bonus.
I, personally don't like the new add-ons as much as the re-done Links LS courses. Generally-speaking they don't stand out and aren't very memorable, though several, such as the Robert Trent-designed Judge Course, are simply awesome: Very creative, challenging, and fun. Still, a decent selection of courses and an excellent value.
Nicely updated and great courses for Links 2003

Microsoft has updated 20 courses in this package and the updates are great making this a perfect add-on to the package. I wished that there were new courses in this pack but the next release can take care of that. Also Microsoft should consider releasing an "All Courses" package which has every course from previous versions as well as the PGA package with a number of real PGA Courses included
Outstanding addition to an outstanding game

I love golf. I absolutely stink at it, but I love it. A bad day on the golf course is still better than a good day at work.
I love Links 2K3. The course converter (which comes with the Links 2003 game, on CD #3 I believe, for anyone who is interested...) means that I can use older courses. This offering from Microsoft means that I have a ton of courses to play in addition to the older ones.
In fact, the only Microsoft course I DON'T like is Mesa Roja. Of course, I don't know too many Links players who do.
If you like this game, check out the Links Course Center at sportsplanet. More courses than you can shake a (golf) stick at! You'll never have to play the same one twice!!
It's a ripoff.

Microsoft went out of their way to make sure that they make a profit from anyone who is stupid enough to buy this game.
The video quality is poor unless you have a high end video card. Being somewhat of a golf game fanatic, having owned every links version back to Links 386, I had to have the latest version (Links2003) The advertising said that I could convert my old games. That is not true. I work in computer support and have been an avid recreational user for several years, but have not been able to find a site - microsoft or otherwise, that has a utilty to convert older links games to the required 2003 Format. I strongly recommend avoiding this latest offering from microsoft.
