Just to set the record straight, green here means the full 18 holes and not some activist who drives eco-friendly vehicles. Golf Launchpad is now available, hooking to your PC, Mac, and PS2 via USB. Once you get it up and running, it enables you to actually hit the ball while having the ball within the game react, bringing up realism by another notch. I guess this is where Wii Golf loses out, but then again Nintendo’s offering isn’t as serious as Tiger Woords PGA Tour 2005 (!) that comes bundled with each purchase. If you can look past the archaic game that is included, the Golf Launchpad system is actually pretty handy to measure your golf swing at a thousand times per second, helping you improve your real game. Make sure you clear the living room free of fragile items before stepping up to tee off.
