Real Golf Interactive

Has anybody tried the "real golf" game?
How is it?
I've got a big screen HDTV. Thinking about getting it

Do you mean "Real World Golf" on the X-Box? Or is this something else?

I've played Links and Tiger Woods on game consoles and in my opinion both of them blow chunks, although TW isn't bad on the PC.

I haven't tried the "Real World Golf" game, though, as my interest in console gaming lasted about 6 months...

It's not TW golf. From what I understand you actually have a little club in your hand...somehow it's connected to a XBOX, PS or PC console. I am not sure if you need a special console or not but it can be in through either of them. (PS, XBOX, PC) I guess distance and performance are based on swing speed etc.
You swing, do the chip and putt thing with this little club. There are supposed to be I think 10 golf courses that come with the game.
When I have more time on my hands (5 more weeks until graduation... yea!!)
I'll really check it out. I am sure they have some kind of demo in some game stores

I've played the real simulators before. Way back in 98 and 99 I worked in a golf shop that had the Links LS simulator. It was pretty accurate then, I just recently played one that was VERY accurate.

I'd like to try that PS2 / XBox one .. for the price, it should be quite good.

The real world simulators are very expensive, $10K + easy.

i am thinking about getting the ps2 game as well. if it's as good as people say, that means you could play a round any time, anywhere, which would be awesome. save me a ton a money.

Hate to be a bummer, but why not just go to the range?
