 Tiger Woods WII Game July 7, 2008
The game is quite interesting to play. I find it mimicks actual golf strokes very well. Very realistic.
THE MOST FAITHFUL GOLF SIM ON THE PLANET!!!! June 27, 2008

After being a little disappointed with Wii Sports Golf and Super Swing Golf 2, Tiger Woods 2008 (Wii) had me saying, "WOW!" The ball physics are spot on! (The ball actually rolls to a very natural-looking stop instead of looking like it rolled into a sticky substance bringing it to a very unnatural and abrupt halt.) The terrain detail is excellent. But most of all it's the feel that is so amazing. Everything feels perfect. I'm amazed at the way this game interprets my golf swing and putts. It pretty much nails the accuracy rate of my real golf game!!! In other golf games, I would often miss a putt even when I felt I did everything right. In this game, when I miss a putt it's because I truly deserved to miss it - just like in real golf! (You know the feeling.) When it comes to duplicating every facet of the real golf playing experience, this game is incredibly faithful. Even the texture of the grass is so real you find youself effortlessly comprehending the lie of your ball and the break of the greens. The character graphics are less perfect but who cares. The graphics are strong where they count. The "mini putt" game is really nice and will satisfy most miniature golf fans. For the closest thing to playing real golf this is a must have! You won't be disappointed. I highly recommend this excellent golf game!

This game is way to hard almost so much so that you get frustrated and quit. The shots are never the same. You can't get any good control of the ball and forget the shots using the Wedge clubs!
Just to hard to have any fun with it!
 HUGE frustrations with this June 14, 2008

The instruction booklet stinks way too little information and help.
The help screens in the game following a match are on the screen for a millisecond...how am I supposed to read it?
The control for chipping is impossible. Too light it goes an inch...too hard it goes over the green and out of bounds. Then when I try somewhere between the two extremes it erratically goes over or is short...way short. There is NO consistency in chip shots. I shorten my back swing...no change in the bad result. If I shorten the back swing and use less down force...no improvement. No combination seems to produce any result even somewhat consistent.
I get the feeling that the game program decides how well or how poorly you will do as you progress through the PGA career mode. If they want you to do well, all my chip shots are fine. But if I start doing too well and begin to move to the top of the golfers...BOOM, I get a 6 over par with chip shots and putts that are either too long or too short. Sometimes I haven't begun my swing and the game does the shot...badly of course.
The game concept is OK but the control one really has with the controller or any semblance of real life is AWFUL.
And how in the heck does one get rid of the annoying mannerisms before and after a shot. Hunting through the many menus might produce how but I haven't found it yet.
I think I'd rather play the real thing. This game is overprice and poorly designed.
 Lots of fun June 2, 2008

While the Wii version of this game doesn't have a lot of the advanced graphics options that the 360 versions has, it's a great next step if you have gotten bored with the Wii Sports package course that only has 9 holes.
