    Simple and intuitive controls mix perfectly with its appealing and approachable cartoony look to perhaps make We Love Golf the best, non-simulation links experience available on the console.

    A fun and very pretty arcade golf. Too bad it's way too easy - you win tournaments easily on your first try. Multiplayer matches are naturally tougher. [Aug 2008]

    Camelot have done it again, weaving their unique brand of golfing simplicity on a console where swing confusion rules. It could do with some padding, but this is a great start. [Mar 2008, p.56]

    I think Camelot made a mistake by ignoring true one-to-one swing mechanics in favor of a more traditional Mario Golf-style control scheme. And I think We Love Golf! is as a result a little easier than it should be. But the strange thing is, it's still a really good game of golf that's fun because the controls do exactly what they're supposed to and because the pace is so fast.

    We Love Golf grafts a golf swing onto the Wii's motion controls exceptionally well but, apart from that, the game's substance is very run of the mill.
  6. GameShark
    67
    Players that obsess over every club purchase or need to have complete control over their golfer's stats will be turned off by the low level of difficulty but for players new to the genre, or new to videogaming in general, the stylish and happy theme of the game, combined with the intuitive controls makes for a fun golfing experience.
  7. DarkStation

    Overall We Love Golf! turned out to be another middle of the road Wii title that this time actually made use of the systems controls, but forgot to put in the whole package.

    We Love Golf? Not this aimed at under 5s, chintzy, annoying, cartoons with stupid tunes version of golf we don't. Even the wiimoteWe Love Golf? Not this aimed at under 5s, chintzy, annoying, cartoons with stupid tunes version of golf we don't. Even the wiimote squawks at you with the annoyance of an ill disciplined child. The control is poor, makes wii sports golf look awesome. Proof that some mags sites get paid to give favourable reviews. 80%? They've bumped their heads!… Expand

    Another disappointing game. This is far from realistic golf. The graphics are very "kiddy". I played Tiger Woods PGA Tour 09 for the PS3Another disappointing game. This is far from realistic golf. The graphics are very "kiddy". I played Tiger Woods PGA Tour 09 for the PS3 and this was the best golf game out on the market. I would recommend this game for very young children, but other than that, avoid this game.… Expand
