Fantastic single and multiplayer game
I bought an import copy of this game a week ago and absolutely love it! The game follows on from the earlier Mario Golf games on the Gameboy Colour and the N64. An intuitive control system allows experienced and novice players alike to play the game easily, with a choice of manual or automatic shots. Manual shots are obviously much better, and allow you to add topspin or backspin to the ball.

Graphically Mario Golf is a triumph, and it really shows off the graphical capabilities of the Gamecube, with great detail and texture effects. The depth of the game is excellent, with a large selection of mini-games and challenges, courses for tournaments and stroke play, and various character matches. As such the game should be long lasting and provide many hours of entertainment. Highly recommended!


The most playable golf game on the market
While Links remains the definitive simulation for golf purists, Tiger Woods is much better to just pick up and play, especially with friends.
The amount of outrageous chip-ins, holes-in-one, sand saves and colossal drives show that its a game with fun in mind, but underneath theres a very good golf game with great graphics and a host of fun features.
The courses in particular are excellent, particularly Sawgrass and the Home of Golf, The Old Course at St Andrews. What the R&A would make of some of the characters in the game (including ludicrously-quiffed Samoan and immense Sumo wrestler) is quite another matter.
However, there are some more recognisable players including Tiger, Monty and Jesper Parnevik and the analog swing method sets it apart from other games of the ilk that require only skilless button-bashing to do well.
Its absolutely ideal for a fun romp when the weathers too bad to play outside, but its maybe a little too easy to become good at in comparison to other sports sims.

Still too easy
Already owning Tiger Woods 2002 i thought it was time to get the new version and while the graphics and general game play are far superior i cant help but think that it is far to easy a game to play. I can constantly record over 20 under par on a regular basis and that really isnt much of a challenge is it. I was hoping that this version would be harder than previous but unfortunately EA have bought in additional features like designing your own golfer and not worked on making the game harder to conquer and make it more realistic and less of a stroll in the park which it has turned out to be.
