    Default True Swing Golf DS

    Hey guys,

    I just read IGNs review of this upcoming game http://ds.ign.com/articles/682/682539p1.html (it got a 8/10)

    Is anyone else planning on getting this? I really enjoyed Hot Shots Golf on PSP so it's natural for me to want this one as well I guess.

    Gamespot gave it a 6.0: Here

    It looks like crap to me.

    Damn. That IGN review sounded mostly positive. I'm still interested (I'm an avid golfer) but I'm thinking of maybe waiting for a cheaper price.

    I just don't understand why Nintendo keeps relying on these guys to make golf games when they obviously aren't that talented at it. I mean Wailae golf for N64 was one of the worst golf games I've played and they don't have much track record beyond that. I do have interest in this though, I see potential control problems however.

    I really wish they'd stick with Mario Golf's hitting formula, it's golden, Hot Shots Golf proves that.
    Mostly just play Nintendo 64. If you've got games PM me! Cart only.

    It looked like a good game. The presentation seemed a little dry, but most golf games are. The control is the thing that matters, and since it's been a million years since Leaderboard Golf set the standard, I'm ready for a new, more precise control scheme. If it handles well, then I'll pick up a copy.

    I may consider getting this game. It looks pretty good, but i might look at some reader reviews to see what other people say.

    Never played the 64 games, but I really enjoyed their golf game on the Virtual Boy.
