Anyone who plays TW PGA Tour on 360/PS3/Wii will probably be glad to see this one. Augusta National will now be featured in the popular EA franchise.

Golfers longing to play Augusta National will get their opportunity this spring -- through an EA Sports video game.
Officials at the storied Georgia golf course, home to the annual Masters Tournament, announced Tuesday that Augusta National is joining forces with EA Sports to be part of its 2012 installment of the Tiger Woods PGA Tour golf game franchise.

The game will go on sale March 29, just a few weeks before the 75th playing of the Masters, and allow participants to "play" the Augusta National course by "qualifying" for and attempting to win the Masters.

Now, just give me full Kinect functionality with it and it will be near perfect!!

It's about time! So many great courses in those games and Augusta rounds them off nicely. Now they just need to add Carl Spackler to the character list.

After my copy of Tiger '10 stopped working on my Wii (and I had no way to get my money back, and it would have been wrong to sell it), I was so pissed that I didn't buy '11. I still maintain that the older ones ('05 in particular) have more fluid gameplay, though this could get me to buy '12 (for 360).

With the addition of Augusta will certainly make this a must buy for no other reason other than to play the course.  I didn't buy this years as I didn't think it was worth it as I have '10.  Very much looking forward to this new version...it would be nice if they kept some of the other good ones like pebble, spy glass, St. Andrews just to keep some of the classics.

I have a 360 as well and I'm still not sure if the better graphics make up for the lack of direct control. '11 for the Wii ranges from being decent to being quite good...

Don't get me wrong, I loved '10 for the Wii while it lasted, but I bring my 360 to school with me and leave the Wii at home, so I buy most game for the 360.

Actaully i also play it because it takes ages to complete unlike the new ones where you can finish everything apart from the Hole in 1 tracking tiger in about 2 days of normal gameplay (not playing 24/7)

Thanks to SportsNation on ESPN, we now have a flyover view of Amen Corner from Tiger '12:

Wow, they finally added Augusta . I might have to get a copy for the Wii now, which has been gathering some serious dust for a while. I still game the Tiger 08 version from time to time though.

Coming out in March they said? Kind of a ways away.

This is a first-day purchase for me for the PS3.  I'll probably just go ahead and get the Collector's Edition too because it comes with 5 extra courses for only $10 more.  In addition, it says you can now play those downloaded courses in your career mode as well.  That's a very nice addition.  And with Augusta National finally making its way into the game, it's icing on the cake.  I'm also happy to see Zach Johnson and Bubba Watson in the game, although I'd love to see Rickie Fowler get the nod as well.

I'm highly looking forward to this one, and it comes out in late March as well.  That's also a bonus.

I skipped last years game as well... this may be just enough for me to get the new one.
