Golf a no-go for online play

Way back when in Revolution Fanboy's beginning days, we posted about one of the first games announced on the Revolution, none other than Tecmo's Skatto Golf Pangya Revolution. Tecmo announced today that the golf title would in fact not be playable online, limiting those hitting the links in Tecmo's title to playing alone or against the game's CPU. The game's producer, Keisuke Kikuchi, also gave up some more information on the game in the latest issue of Japanese mag Famitsu, stating that he is approaching this game as a brand new project and avoiding porting it over from the PC. He also alludes to a desire for the game to have downloadable content, something that the console is fully capable of.

Is this the first of a long list of launch titles on the Revolution to not include online play? We'll find out in less than two weeks, that's for sure.
