  1. It is this exploration of every nook and cranny of the world that provides a surprisingly lengthy gaming experience. You will want to discover every mini-game, talk to every person, and earn every prize you can throughout the land.
  2. A fantastic golfing title that competes with the big boys. It features five full courses and a host of mini-games that'll keep people busy for those long road-trips. My only complaint would be that it is far too easy.
  3. 86
    If it weren't for the dodgy doubles partner and the near-impossible putting system, Mario Golf: Advance Tour would deserve a score well into the 90's.
  4. 70
    Advance Tour offers much more in terms of longevity and variety than "Toadstool Tour" did, but on the other hand, doesn't do it quite as slickly.

    GREAT game. Crazy fun, even moreso than the GC version, and that's saying a lot. I'd recommend this to anyone.

    One of the best games that I have ever played.There are loads of game modes which makes the game last.
  4. This game is amazing. I would kill 1000 kittens to get a sequel to this game for the Wii. It's probably the most fun I have had playing a single player sports game ever. The adventure mode is so much fun, it makes me depressed that games of this quality are going the way of the dodo, while billions are spent by EA trying to get the grass look more realistic while creating enjoyable single player modes(franchise/be-a-pro modes) is overlooked. Edge Magazine should be ashamed of themselves for give this game a 6/10. Expand
