I would agree that most sports games don't come off well on PC. Many of the newer Hockey games that make it to the PC have incredible customizations and create a player, but they always play horribly. On the console of your choice, however, you sacrifice that little bit of graphical detail for smooth play.
Golf games are better on the pc, IMHO, with the exception of that PGA game that used to be on the old Sega Genesis...
