There are other ways to attack enemies, as the “X” button shoves them down — a necessity at times if they have spiky red hair — or uses a weapon. The “A” button activates the boy’s special power (Kenny has a super jump, Cartman bumps through walls, etc.). The “X” button also grabs objects, with the “RB” button used for throwing them. This is also problematic, as it’s not easy to throw or even drop stacking crates where you want them to go — a frustrating exercise if you need to get higher to collect something.

Golf game controls tend to focus on just a few very specific things — swing timing/power, placement, and club selection. For the previous two, EA has given players greater control over the variables. Swing speed, stance, backswing arc — all of these details that golfers both pro and amateur take into account when they hit the links. The left analog is now the focal point for your swing, determining the complexity of your swing, giving you all sorts of options to compensate for wind, add spin, or chipping. Once you finish your swing, a small HUD update lets you know how successful your shot was.
