OK EA, what !@#$ are you guys doing to your franchise? Evreything you guys touch now days come out awful!
Now for the game, to start out the graphics are very well done, I wouldn’t say revolutionary but it get the job done. Facial textures are very well done, and show all the facial blemishes that you expect to see on a person. The animation is very well done, and is much smoother then what I’ve seen on the PC.
As for the rest of the game, well, like I said before, this is a rush job if I’ve ever seen one, 6 course, that are all well done, you also get a handful of the golf stars like John Daily and VeeJay Sing, but again, you don’t get many of them.
The worst party of the game to me is the arcade style of play that Tiger now have. It’s awful! You now have a “boost” button that you have to push to gain power, and you better believe you will need it, because without it, you will tee off doing about 150’. I can do that in real life and I’m no golfer. To add insult to injury, they put the button in the worst place that you can possibly have it. You are now force to swing and hit the “boost” button all with the same hand, all trying to time everything. What a load of poodo! It just shows you how little EA really thought this game out. To be fair to EA, and I don’t know why I would, but you can switch the thumb sticks around, so you don’t have to do everything with the same hand. Just the fact that EA has a “boost” button, show you that EA is losing their collective minds!
The online play is very smooth, though you have to go through a EA sever to play, even if it’s a private game with your buddy!
The lack of features, the small number of course, and the “boost” button, all add up to the weakest of all Tiger Wood games. I couldn’t recommend this game to my worst enemy!
