Very good game, a little difficult to control at first, but it's a good entertainment.
there is no reason why everyone should not have a copy of this game. When I first started playing this game I was def wowed. Not quite perfect as rarely your ball will end up in a place that it wont be removed from, ie the woods or a bush. I still enjoy playing it very much. Right now for a price of [.]. But other than that there are alot of multi-player games on this and then the campaign mode is a blast as you can adjust how many matches per competition. Get your hands on this game
Tiger '08 seeks to reverse that trend by offering a game that realistically builds your character through training and experience. My only gripe with this game would be the steep learning curve. Tiger Woods PGA Tour Golf has always been a good game somewhat marred by a few questionable design choices on the part of Electronic Arts. Another excellent feature is the "EA Gameface" which will allow you to take a digital picture of yourself (or anyone else for that matter) and import it into the game. Some balance here would've made the game more enjoyable. Now the focus is less on winning money and more on getting that perfect tee shot or nailing a long put. All of the features from a "next-generation" game are present here including, full online integration, breath-taking visuals and well implemented game modes that cover the gambit of golfing.
Simply making shots that stay on the fairway is challenging until you character has built enough experience points to become competitive. Quirks like insanely expensive equipment; top of the line putters and such would often cost millions of in-game dollars or using in-game money to purchase abilities skewed the realism factor that the game offered. Veterans and newcomers alike will undoubtedly find Tiger '08 monstrously difficult at first. In essence the focus is back on the golf and the the periphery. I found it great fun to see my own likeness teeing off against greats like Tiger Woods, Vijay Sighn, or Colin Montgomerie. And while I have no problem with putting in the time the games difficulty absolutely nosedives after a point making the game almost too easy. All in all this is another great gold game that continues to impress year after year.
This is the first and last time I buy a golfing game for my brother, the graphics is average. The controls may take an 20 minutes to an 1/2 hour to learn the basics of how to putt perfectly.Overall the game is not for me to play because you will need some patience and lots of pratice to play the game.
Nice game, but the default control mechanism sucks. Every time, I have to change it to the 3-click method. Also, my thumb isn't used to 3-click, so I think it would be easier to play the game with a mouse.
