Quantcast



We love golf. You love golf. Capcom loves golf. So why was it that their Wii exclusive title We Love Golf! was tucked up away upstairs away from the main action at CAPTIVATE? And why was no one playing? Oh right -- there were four Street Fighter IV cabinets downstairs.

But like I said ... we love golf! Despite the fact that it seemed like it was overlooked at CAPTIVATE, that doesn't mean I'm not looking forward to We Love Golf!'s July release. I had a chance to get some time with at last year's Tokyo Game Show (complete with a girl in a mini-skirt teaching me the swing mechanic) and found it enjoyable enough. With unlockable Capcom-themed costumes (Arthur and Jill Valentine FTW!), is there any other golf game you'll want to play on the Wii? 

Come July, I think I'll spend some more time with We Love Golf! ... as long as there isn't a Street Fighter IV arcade cabinet within in 20 feet. Because that's irresistable.

No thanks. I'll stick with the better offering of Hot Shots Golf on the PS3. Can't get enough of that game. Maybe one day Nick , you could join us for a tee time, lol.

Man am I sold on this! But still hoping truly incorporate the Capcom ethos and make golf an all-out contact sport.

It's Camelot (the guys behind the Mario Golf games), so it's gonna be good.

I'm really looking forward to this.. I've read that this golf game really works the best with the wii remote. Not like Tiger, where you would mildly swing a putt and your ball would then fly 2500 yards.

I had this game confused with Pangya Golf 2. Understandable since they look almost identical. And apart from being able to dress as a famous (capcom) characters, what else does it have?

I have the original Pangya for Wii, and I've hear the sequel isn't that much of an improvement, so jumping studios might be what I need :)
