Rich, Parents' Choice®). -- From Parents' Choice®There are two kinds of video-game fans who play golf games: the kind who play hard-core golf simulations and the kind who play everything else. Mario Golf is, amazingly, the kind of golf game that could appeal to both. Camelot - the team responsible for last year's PlayStation golf hit Hot Shots Golf - is back with two golf games this year: the sequel (to be released in Japan first) to Hot Shots Golf and Mario Golf for the N64.
