Gordon Goble of reviewed the Windows version and wrote that the game, 'for all its charms and potential, feels unfinished. And this sense of incompleteness does not confine itself to the periphery-it will often impact the quality of your play.' Kim Randell of wrote, 'Despite a lack of initiative, Actua Golf 2 can still claim to be the best golf game available for the PlayStation.' Jason Zimring of considered the PlayStation version to be a poor game, writing, 'The graphics are weak, the gameplay moves slowly, and the putting is sure to give you high blood pressure.' Ryan of called the game 'a bit rough around the edges' and stated that it 'lacks the realism provided by most of the competition, but it's a real bargain and can be lots of fun.' Some critics considered the Windows version superior to the PlayStation version. The graphics of the Windows version were well received.

Calvin Hubble of Game Revolution praised the Windows version for its 'damn fine' water-reflection effect, and Craig Harris of praised the moving water. Tasos Kaiafas of praised graphical effects such as swaying trees and the reflective, moving water, but stated that the graphics overall were lacking in comparison to rival golf games. Ryan considered the background graphics 'rather plain' but stated that the overall look of the game 'is surprisingly smooth and convincing.' The putting was criticized for its difficulty. Stephen Poole of wrote that the putting interface was 'one of the most frustrating ever seen,' writing, 'There's very little difference in the distance on the swing meter for, say, a 50-footer and a 10-footer; in other words, the difficulty of a putt increases as the distance to the hole decreases - the exact opposite of real golf.' Kaiafas wrote, 'The problem is the swing meter doesn't adjust for the shorter length, so you have to do some fast clicking to get it right.' Presley stated that it would take players a while to get used to the mouse swing method, and wrote that the swing bar for the click-based method was 'too small for the more delicate shots'.

Goble felt that putting was too easy when using the mouse swing method. He also criticized the design of the swing meter, describing it as a 'horridly rough-looking gauge'. James Mielke of GameSpot also criticized the swing meter design in his review of the PlayStation version. Ryan criticized the putting interface, which he considered poor.The commentary received some criticism, as reviewers considered it repetitive, although Goble did not view it as such.
