Tiger Woods PGA Tour 09

One-to-one swing mechanics, enhanced graphics and four-player simultaneous online play. This is how you do Wii golf.

June 16, 2008 - With its tactile feel and gestural gameplay opportunities, the Wii remote has always seemed perfectly suited to golf titles, which is probably why just about every developer, from Nintendo to third-parties like Tecmo and EA, has taken a "swing" at one or more such efforts since the launch of Nintendo's popular home console. Of course, it's a task easier said than done. Wii Sports golf, for example, got the one-to-one swing mechanics down pat, but it completely ignored draw and fade, necessary options for true golfers. Oppositely, previous iterations of Tiger Woods PGA Tour included sometimes wonky draw and fade controls, but dropped the one-to-one swing and in turn the sensation that you're in direct control of the club. Don't even get us started on Super Swing Golf.
