This game is now a must buy for me.

1:1 Golf awesomeness... and now Disc golf?!

Yes please.

 

The controls may be 1:1 (is it actually confirmed beyond PR fluff?) but just be glad that the golf balls won't be reacting too realistically to your swing. :P It'd be hell if they did. I'm really good at golf and I'd still hate it, if only because swinging with the wii remote is way different than with a real club.

not after you add your life sized plastic attachement with weighted club head

 

 

I was thinking of just using some duct tape to attach my remote to my golf clubs. :P

 

Gamerace, there's no way in hell the ball reacts 100% accurately and consistently to the way you hit it. People spend thousands of dollars and take hundreds of lessons to get good at golf, and most still don't end up very good. This game would be no fun if it really was that accurate, because you'd have to be really good in order to actually be decent at this game. Also, playing on professionally used courses? Rofl, even some of us good golfers would be crying while playing this game.

 

he's right, if u ever played real golf u know that it's unbelievable hard for the first weeks or even months, u need a loooooot of practise to get at least decent.

when this can be done 1:1 in a video game, i'll be also able to say : 'beam me up, scottie' to land on a real golf court immeadatly

Well, I'll admit, I've never played real golf (too expensive for my taste) but you're right, it won't be 100% like real golf but they are saying that they can tell the exact rotation of the Wiimote so if you twist it ever so slightly it'll affect the shot.  They now include a little image of the rotation of the club relative to the ball (prior to swing) so you can judge how much to twist the wiimote to try and curve the shot.  An awesome addition.

It also has difficulty settings so if true 1:1 is too hard you can drop to an easier difficulty and it'll be less true to life but easier to hit par.

My biggest problem with TW 07, which I own, is that like all EA sports games of the time, it assumes you know the sport inside out and doesn't even explain some golf techiques despite them being in the game.  Knowing their Wii audience now, I'm really trust EA will cater to us novice players some more.

Hot damn that looks fun.... more so than normal golf to be honest.

is disc golf the same as Frisbee golf?

 

edit: just watched video and yep it is the same. 

while it is essentially the same thing, real disc golf uses special discs, not just off the shelf frisbies that most people use.

 

 

we use special disks too.  3 of them, we just name the game differently.  specifically frolf



I think disc golf will be help sales tremendously. This should be not only the best TW ever, but also 2 games in 1. As well as previous editions have sold on the Wii, this one could hit 2 million!



BAM! There it is!

heck it already has +1 vote from me

 

edit: btw has anyone ever tried those cheap pariphials that just stick on the wii mote.  does the golf one make it feel better or would that be a waste?
