Is it just me or is there something suspicious about owning this game on all 3 platforms? This is just my opinion but was wondering how others feel about it?? With all the scandal lately with boom boom and different IP addresses it's got me thinking.why would someone want the same game on 3 different consoles?It's a big waste of money for a start. Maybe I'm paranoid but what's stopping them signing in on xbox or ps4 under a guest profile and playing the tour in advance to get the feel for the wind,firmness etc?It also opens up the potential for multiple accounts I'd assume. Maybe I'm wrong Or is it for the ghost ball watchers?making sure they can load up the best ghosts and have a selection of all ghosts. Clearly it must have some advantage? It just baffles me I've played some great games in my lifetime and not once has it ever crossed my mind to go '' Umm I think I'll buy that game again but this time for my Xbox'' Anyway just my opinion and throwing it out there to see what people think. Thanks for reading :-)

I own on all three.
Bought it first on PS4 because I've always played my golf games on PSX consoles in the past.
The swing got completely jacked on PS4 for quite a few people last year. I couldn't hit 100% shots without pushing forward on the analog as hard as I could possibly could. Thats when I bought the game on PC and played it for 2-3 months on tour last summer.
I then bought it for XB1 to expose myself to other players, but I never got used to the XB1 controller, so other than playing a few tournaments on there I could have gone without.
Currently I just use PC and XB1 TGC for leaderboard checking. Have thought about getting a PC graphics card upgrade and playing TST on PC, but still haven't yet.
All that other stuff you mention is way out character for me and have no desire to cheat. I do have Ian Sweeney on my "home" console, so why look further. But, to be serious, I don't load up players' ghost balls that I know don't care for ghost ball use.
Also, I have one profile name for PS4, XB1, and Steam/PC.

Not in all cases I'm sure.
I have it on both pc and ps4.
I hardly ever play on ps4, it's a little too laggy for me, I got it on ps4 to stream while designing, but quickly learned designing on ps4 was like blowing bubbles into an ass.
I'm sure some use it dishonestly, but I'm betting the vast majority do not.

Oh jayzuz swing gate I remember that one well I play on ps4 and that was torture haha Not pointing fingers just trying to see what people thought and to get a debate going as I think it's an interesting topic :-)

I got it on ps4 and pc. Simple for me really. Bought it for ps4. Used it. Bought a pc. Converted. I'll probably play on ps4 every now and then to play with friends, but pc will be my pick. Same as Bob though. Same username.

I have it on two platforms because I got a PS4 on launch and bought TGC on it when it released in August 2014. My real-life friends all got XB1s in early 2015, though, so I bought one that summer to join them and decided to try TGC to see how it played. Luckily for me, I'm better on Xbox because I'm more familiar and comfortable with the controller, so I've never really gone back to PS4. I do check the leaderboard on there most weeks, but I never play it on PS4 (as my TGC-playing friends can attest to). I hope no one would use it as an advantage, but that seems a bit naïve in light of recent events, now doesn't it?

Certain people seem to focus on potential cheaters a little too much. Makes you wonder if they're looking for ways to cheat.

I also own it for all three. PC first, then decided to buy it for XB1 so I could play with my kids. Determined I like playing on console better.
Then I just got a PS4 this past week (mostly because I wanted to play The Show) and I'm going to transition my console gaming to PS4 instead of XB1. So now I have it on all three.

You sick bastards!
I'd love to own it on PC for designing. But I would have to update/upgrade my PC.
PS4-designing made me quit right after my 1st attempts...

Only oroblem is my video game iq allows me to turn on the console and that's where it ends. All this "twitch" , "straight shooting" "mulligan taking" stuff Far exceeds anything that I know how to do so I'll just have to accept that cheating is out of my league 😀

I feel strongly that everyone should own the game on all 3 platforms. :-P

Got it first for Xbone and played on that through the first season. Meanwhile, I built a nice PC and decided to get it on there and have been playing/designing on PC ever since.
So, no, I don't have it for all three systems but I definitely can see how people may have it for all three.

I play on PS4 but considered getting it on PC just for designing since everyone says it is so much better.

I heard the designer is much easier to use on pc? Does it have different tools or what?
