 True Swing Golf review: This arcade-style golf title gets the gameplay down to a 'tee', but lacks the much-needed colorful characters and online play, which would have made it a must-buy DS title.

 True Swing Golf review: True Swing Golf is an easy to pick up and play game that will appeal to both golf players and golf videogame players. It's very interactive and realistic, and after experiencing it, I really can't see how you can play a golf game in any other way. - Didi Cardoso, Grrlgamer.com
eToyChest reviews
 True Swing Golf review: Instead, True Swing Golf is more like a tech demo of how the touch screen could be used to play golf, rather than a completely fleshed out experience in its own right. It's interesting for a short time, but DS owners are still bound to be left waiting for that one defining golf experience to come along.

 True Swing Golf review: T&E Soft has an extensive history in the business of developing golfing videogames, and that history is only continuing to grow with the recent release of True Swing Golf for the Nintendo DS. Golf games have been around for ages now, and up until EA Sports’ Tiger Woods franchise began to introduce revolutionary new ideas to the genre there hadn’t been any changes to the golf gaming formula. With its stylus-based touch-screen controls, the Nintendo DS seemed like the perfect platform to reinvent videogame golf right from the onset of its conception, and although True Swing Golf doesn’t necessarily revolutionize or reinvent the genre in any significant ways, it certainly brings the sport to gamers in a unique form that is as refreshing as it is fun to play.

 True Swing Golf review: You can, however, send PictoChat-style handwritten messages to the other players, but given that you have to be fairly close to the other players for the wireless play to work, it's probably just easier to just talk to people instead of writing it on the DS. Again, online would have made this feature much more exciting.

 True Swing Golf review: Last year's Tiger Woods PGA Tour for the DS was admittedly a flawed product, but there's still no one good reason to pick up True Swing Golf instead of, or even in addition to, Tiger.
GameSpot reviews 60%
 True Swing Golf review: Even if the touch-screen controls hadn't stripped away much of the subtlety of the sport, True Swing Golf would still be a lean and flavorless game of golf.
