SCEA Tees Off for Jak Versus Ratchet Golf Competition

Hot Shots Golf Fore! the cheerful, comic golf game due out on the PS2 later this summer will be featuring a variety of cameos from popular Sony videogame characters. Today some of these names have been revealed. Jak, Daxter, Ratchet and Clank will all be ambling from the clubhouse to embark on a spot of gentlemanly ball-whacking. Due to the culture of institutionalised sidekick-ism, Daxter and Clank will be saddled with the caddy duties.

Previous Hot Shots Golf games have been fairly well-received, thanks to the light-hearted approach to the sport. Fore! is likely to follow suit, with the added bonus of some online multiplayer competition via the broadband adapter. US gamers will be able to cast judgement from August 17 onwards.
