Super Albatross was the first sports game ever to come out on a CD-ROM, and it sucks shit. Rather than the usual three button press swing mechanic, you hold down the button and release, with more power the longer you hold it. But it's really unclear how much power you're putting in. And I think it's more accurate if you do release the button rather than just keeping it held down, but the feedback is so bad that I honestly can't tell for certain. In story mode, you instantly game over if you fall behind one hole, though it at least does let you continue at the beginning of the match with your last opponent. But due to the awkward, imprecise gameplay, winning usually means lucking out and getting a match where the CPU gets caught in a tree for a few swings.

But it's not all misery. If you're playing this, you're playing it for that story mode. The fully voiced anime cut scenes of the over the top and nonsensical plot are just a delight. It's a good thing there's a cheat code to just watch them so that you don't have to put up with everything else on the disk.
