Tiger Woods games

[DriverTees]

Hey everyone, I just bought TW PGA 10 for the xbox 360 and I was wondering whether other people played the series and how you guys thought about it. I'm pretty busy studying so no 3-page post from me :P

I nearly have all 1000g for it it is actually quite easy

my favorite was 2005 for the original xbox. 2006 was terrible, and the 360 versions have gotten better every year since, but 2005 was best because of playing as/against legends, and i liked the fantasy courses.

Also the old ones felt MUCH more smooth

I miss the fantasy courses as well. I have owned half a dozen TW for xbox, Macintosh, Vista, and Wii. I am working through Wii '10 with the new controller module now and like it a lot. One of the best things is buying the clubs you use and making a realistic avitar, my grandson has no problem recognizing me on the screen. I love my current setup too, Wii and a Sony 52"; sweet.

I think it has been all down hill since TW 2007.

For me, I stopped buying the Tiger Woods games because they all were pretty much the same. I have the xbox 360, and I think the last one I got was 2005 or 2006.

Got kind of boring for me, able to shoot 20 under par on the courses myself ... then get online to play against other people & end up getting smoked.

On the games I had, you could use power boost on your shots to get unrealistic distances ... you could put unrealistic spin on the ball to get it ridiculously close to the pins ... you could see the specific mark & speed that you needed to roll your putt to to get it in the cup. Not very challenging for me.

I have downloaded a couple of the demos of the new ones that have come out, but again, they are the same as the old ones which I don't play anymore anyway since the evolution of the Rock Band/Guitar Hero games .

According to the reviews at http://reviews.teamxbox.com , the game got a 9 out of 10 score (as well as the Editor's Choice award) ... so it appears that it's a keeper. But for me, they all seemed the same back in the day.

Have you tried playing on the pro difficulty? You can't use the putt preview and the meter goes faster. Or you could not use the meter and swing with the left joystick making the game more difficult.

What the ....?

That's funny!

I am still on TW '08. I usually play it on random Saturday mornings. I skipped '09 and am getting '10 for Christmas. The game really served as the catalyst to actually get me playing for real. Now I can't buy video games because I have greens fees to pay. That may have been a little counterproductive for the game company.

To be honest, I haven't played the TW game for probably 3-4 years. I don't remember what level I was playing on at the time. Got bored with it & it's just been collecting dust.

I have about 10-15 games right now, I probably play an average of 1 hour per week since I can still get out & golf before the snow hits here in Colorado, and that 1 hour that I DO play is usually Rock Band or Guitar Hero :). I just got Guitar Hero 5 and I haven't even played it yet ... I got it because you get Guitar Hero Van Halen for free with some promotion they were running. Maybe this winter I'll dust off TW again & see where I left off and try the different difficulty levels.

I stopped playing TW in 2005.

I play TW 2009 for Wii. The music and commentators eventually are annoying - normal stuff. One other "minor" annoyance is the proshop. Hmmm . . . which one of these 90 mock turtlenecks* shall I wear today?




* I #%^#& hate mock turtlenecks.
