Golden Tee 2008 unplugged is a similar edition to the Golden Tee Live 2008 version of the long running Golden Tee series.
The unplugged is meant for home or casual arecade play. It does not offer any of the Live play features like on-line tournaments updates, etc. It also has easier winds, ball drops, pin placement and tee off spots.
The game follows the normal rules for golf play. All scoring is done for stroke play (hazards, water penalties etc.) You are provided with a standard set of clubs. 2-9 irons, 3 and 5 woods and a driver. Sand and pitch wedge and a putter.
Prior to the swing you can turn left or right. By rolling the roller ball (controller) back in a certain direction (for backswing) then foward in a certain direction, you can accomplish different shots including slices, hooks, fades and knock down shots. There is also a backspin button to allow backspin on the green.
The game also keeps track of high scores for each course including:
-the thirty best scores -Great golfer points (scored by getting shots within 5' of the hole from at least 50 yards out)
-longest drive
