Tiger Woods PGA Tour 14

Ah OK, that is good then.

Yup. Ball spin and controls like that are all controlled either individually (so you can mix and match) or with pre-set levels like "amateur," "pro," etc. And the new one, "Simulation."

Playing at Mission Hills right now. Kind of cool to play a course that is literally 5 minutes from my apartment.

I didn't see The Sand Trap CC on the PS3 version so I created it if anybody wants to join.

how about setting up a CC tournament (no wind) ;-)

Re Mickelson not in the game: he didn't want to be, or he asked for too large a fee. That's basically the reason he has never been in it.

With the next gen of consoles about to occur, I am sure the galleries will be one of the things they will address. That and presentation have been held back by the limited capacity of the current generation. I have heard that many developers now say they are at the limits already, so the new gen is happening at just the right time.

They have added the ability to play with 24 other golfers on a live tournament with ball arcs to address this issue. Career mode is a little more difficult to make feel alive, though they added more stats as you play the round showing what the other AI golfers are doing to make it come more to life.

They added a simulation difficulty level which is supposed to be both more challenging and more immersive.

Ok, so is this worth grabbing for the 360? I have the Road to the Masters on the Wii, but the Ex has the Wii now:-( I do not have the Kinect.

If you're hoping for the Kinect to be some sort of simulation experience, its not. This game is best played with a controller imo. But FWIW, I do think its worth grabbing. Its challenging enough. I've visited the ea sports website and forum and the devs are very concerned with any bugs that are being reported. They are working on updates to address these already. I like what they got goin on.

Hey, any more going to join the Sand Trap country club? Last I checked there's only like 3.

[Beachcomber]

The Sand Trap CC... Sounds fun.  But I haven't bought a game for my 360 or PS3 in ~ 2 or 3yrs.  Do you create your own course?  Or is it just a way to meet folks online and compete/play against one another?

I'm not too game savvy anymore (who am I kidding, I never was) so forgive me this dumb question:  Is this CC exclusive to a specific console?  Does everybody have to use a Kinect, or a PS3, or can we all comingle?

I only ask because all I have is a Wii ... and for now all I have Tiger Woods 13.  Are they making 14 for the Wii?

There's a "The Sand Trap CC" on each console, and they're separate for 360 and PS3. They are not planning to release a Tiger 14 for Wii (or Wii U, lest I keep forgetting about that thing), but they also didn't release a Tiger 13 for the Wii so I'm not exactly sure how you got your hands on one. ;-) [quote name="Beachcomber" url="/t/63219/tiger-woods-pga-tour-14/30_30#post_826115"]The Sand Trap CC...

I plan on buying the game this weekend sometime. I have some time off from work next week so I plan on getting some time in with TW14. I'll look for The Sandtrap CC but all I have is PS3. Not sure if we can all game from different consoles though.

[mailman]

Ill join as soon as I can get the kids off to sleep :) Regards Mailman

LOL!  I guess it's been a lot longer since I've played that game than I thought.  I must have '12. They made a '12, right?

I joined The Sand Trap CC....but I'm still waiting to be able to buy the game. I see that it's released....but only the Demo is available for download.

I prefer to download games I'm gonna keep, plus I like not having to put a disc in to play.
