Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08 has very good graphics but the sensitivity is awful. its hard to aim the wii remote straight so the ball doesn't go to the right or left

In the stores for $50 so don't know why Amazon is only selling used, November 30, 2007 By Blair "masterblair" (West Hollyweird, CA USA)

Just a note that this is in the stores now and don't know why Amazon is selling it used at very high prices. I found the game great and challenging. 07 version was good, but Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08 is fine tuned and better so if you are looking to start out somewhere...this would be where you go.

I have played golf video games for the past 20 years and none of them could really hold my attention more than a week or so. Then came the Wii with motion sensing capabilities and now I play this game every time I get a spare monument. If you like golf, get Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08. It is the closet thing to actually playing that you can buy right now. Plus, you get to play top PGA courses, and feel like you are there.

Maybe next time there will be better sensitivity, November 10, 2007

I don't know who's complaining about graphics, but those who are need to get a life. Graphics are great on the wii. It's like a PS2. I didn't own the 07 version, but from what I've read, if you own that, don't but this version. If you don't, buy Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08!!! This was my first Wii game outside of wii sports. I love the graphics, love the gameplay so far but I do have one major complaint. It deals with the sensitivity of the wiimote. I can not use both hands when using the wiimote with this game like a normal golf swing. If I do, 60% of swings are unregistered which is very frustrating. I end up using one hand only. My second complaint so far is the fullness of my swing. I only have to swing about halfway up to get full power, which throws off my accuracy in my head. I'd like an adjustment feature for swing motion on the next version. I barely have to do much for a 110% swing. With that being said, this is a million times better than any version of Tiger Woods Golf ever made. It annihilates my PC version of the game by far. Finally I can feel like I'm actually playing the game, rather than just sitting on my behind. I love it. I have no other complaints about the game. The Game Face is very realistic, but will probably take you about five or six edits to really get your game face correct. If you own a wii, and like golf, you must buy this game. It's as close to the real thing as you can get for now, until they improve the sensitivity or allow you to adjust swing motion in the future
