O WGT Golf \u00E9 jogado virtualmente em campos de golfe reais localizados nos Estados Unidos, no Reino Unido, nos Pa\u00EDses Baixos, no Canad\u00E1 e no M\u00E9xico, utilizando uma tecnologia patenteada de georreferenciamento fotorrealista em 3D. Os Jogadores podem jogar com a fam\u00EDlia ou amigos, participar de um quarteto ou iniciar o seu pr\u00F3prio jogo. Os Jogadores podem escolher entre competir em uma variedade de virtual de partidas de golfe com at\u00E9 quatro jogadores ao mesmo tempo, jogar individualmente ou entrar em um desafio de compet\u00EAncias ou em torneios com pr\u00EAmios. Os co-fundadores do WGT Media Chade Nelson e YuChiang Cheng, em 2006, tentaram trazer um jogo de simula\u00E7\u00E3o de golfe de qualidade superior que pudesse ser jogado gratuitamente na Internet, e competisse ou superasse a qualidade visual de jogos de esportes de v\u00EDdeo jogos. Parte do objetivo pretendido era ter uma rede social totalmente integrada. Eles recrutaram JF Prata e Phil Gorrow da Electronic Arts para criar a interface onde rodaria o jogo. Interfaces de milhares de fotografias de cada campo de golfe foram usadas para criar a experi\u00EAncia de golfe WGT. WGT Media lan\u00E7ou uma demonstra\u00E7\u00E3o do s\u00EDtio em 2007 e iniciou uma vers\u00E3o aberta beta de teste em outubro de 2008. O primeiro campo de golfe WGT Media capturado e desenvolvido para o jogo foi o Ocean Course em Kiawah Island Golf Resort, localizado na Carolina do Sul. Por causa de sua autenticidade na fotografia e utilizando campos de golfe reais para o desenvolvimento de jogos, WGT de Golfe difere do padr\u00E3o de console de jogos de esportes em v\u00EDdeo que s\u00E3o produzidos totalmente por computa\u00E7\u00E3o gr\u00E1fica, prestados por animadores. Usando este processo particular de desenvolvimento do jogo, ele permitiu um verdadeiro jogo real\u00EDstico para os usu\u00E1rios do WGT Golfe. Os Membros da PGA tem a experi\u00EAncia de poder praticar WGT Golfe antes de ir para os torneios. A WGT Media n\u00E3o cobra uma taxa para jogar os cursos HD que ela desenvolveu. WGT Media deriva receitas de alto n\u00FAmero de patrocinadores de torneios online, de propagandas e de micro transa\u00E7\u00F5es para atualiza\u00E7\u00E3o de equipamento de golfe e para diferentes escolhas no traje dos avatares fornecidas pela empresa. Os pr\u00EAmios em dinheiro dos torneios podem ser ganhos e, em seguida, usado para a compra de bens virtuais, como novos clubes e roupas para personalizar o avatar.Em janeiro de 2011, um quarteto completou a rodada de n\u00FAmero 100 milh\u00F5es no WGT Golf. Em outubro de 2013, o World Golf Tour Media lan\u00E7ou a vers\u00E3o m\u00F3vel para tablets e smartphones."@pt . . . . . . . . . . . . . "World Golf Tour"@pt . . . . . . .

It is played virtually on actual golf courses located in the United States, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Canada and Mexico, using a patented 3D photorealistic georeferencing technology. Players can play with their family or friends, join a foursome, or start their own game. Players can choose and compete in a variety of virtual golf courses with up to four players at a time, play individually or enter into a skills challenge or in tournaments for prizes. Co-founders of WGT Media Chad Nelson and YuChiang Cheng collaborated in 2006 to come up with a high-quality golf game simulation that could be played for free on the Internet, and compete with or surpass the visual quality of console video sports games. Part of the intended goal was to have a fully integrated social golfing network website. They recruited JF Prata and Phil Gorrow of Electronic Arts to build the physics game engine that interfaces the thousands of photographs of each golf course that are used to create the WGT Golf experience. WGT Media launched a demo of the site in 2007 and commenced an open beta test in October 2008. The first golf course WGT Media captured and developed for play was the Ocean Course at Kiawah Island Golf Resort, located in South Carolina. Because of its authenticity in photographing and using actual golf courses for game development, WGT Golf differs from standard console video sports games that are produced fully by computer graphics, rendered by animators. Using this particular process of game development, it can allow real golfers to play virtually on real golf courses at WGT Golf and then take that knowledge and experience out to the actual golf courses themselves to test their skills and ability. Members of the PGA have even practiced at WGT Golf before going to tournaments. WGT Media does not charge a fee to play the HD courses it has developed (although there is a green fee for licensed non-HD courses). WGT Media derives revenue from high-profile online tournament sponsors, advertisements, and in-game micro transactions for upgrading player golfing equipment and for different choices in costume avatar clothing. Tournament cash prizes can be won and then used to buy virtual goods, like new clubs and clothing to customize the in-game avatar.In January 2011, a foursome completed the 100 millionth virtual round of golf played on WGT Golf. In October 2013, World Golf Tour Media released the mobile version for tablets and smartphones."@en . . . . . "1112651583"^^ . . . . . . . . . . .
