[edit] Gameplay
[edit] Game Modes
The game has changed the main modes since the first game in the series. Super Swing Golf: Season 2 includes an improved story mode, with an overworld map that doesn't necessarily follow events in a set order.[4] On top of the multiplayer Stroke Play, Match Play and Balloon Pop games that came with the first game, two new multiplayer games were added to the party mode.[4] The game has largely remained the same beyond these changes, the addition of new courses, and various cosmetic tweaks.
The game has two different control schemes -- either using the Swing control scheme with the Wii Remote used as though it were a golf club, or using the Button control scheme[5] which is similar to the Mario Golf-style of control scheme.[5]
[edit] Reception
Critics gave the game mixed reviews. GameSpy gave the game a 2.5 out of 5, criticizing the game for being more of an expansion pack over the first game than a true sequel.[5] 1UP.com gave the game a 7 out of 10, reporting that the game has surprising depth that can be off-putting to those just looking to have a good time.[6] IGN handed out a 7.3 out of 10, and reported that despite just adding incremental improvements over the previous installments, "Super Swing Golf: Season 2 is still the best overall golf experience you can find on Wii."[4] GameSpot gave the game a 7.0 out of 10, calling it a good golf game, despite the minimal improvements over its predecessor.[7]
