Anyone getting this? Picked it up today, havent played yet but it should be good. more courses!

Of course it wont beat out Avatar Indie Golf where you can make your own courses look like giant cocks. but oh well!

I bought tiger woods 11 and didnt love it like i have the past couple years so i doubt i spend my money on this, no need when i have the show.

I'm gonna rent this tonight.

I love the Tiger Woods series.

Tiger Woods, like Madden, is sports franchise that is stuck in mud. It barely changes every year, adding a different mode (Master's mode!), yet getting people to buy.

I think I will wait until you can enter "Tiger Mode" - hunting down white strippers and escorts up and down Vegas and New York all night long. Either that, or a Charlie Sheen mode where you are beating strippers, slamming alcohol and coke, and then doing a round of 18.

Joking aside, while I do think that Tiger Woods and Madden are the two most stagnant video game franchises, I can excuse Madden because I can't go outside and play 11 vs 11 football anytime I want. With Tiger Woods, if it's the winter, I can pop in my Tiger Wood's Wii 2008 anytime I want. If it is any other time, I can go play 9 or hit a bucket of balls anytime I want.

the gameplay has changed and this game is pretty good.

nothing will ever stop the NHL series. that is worth the buy 10 fold

 

[zack54attack]

It's a good game. The new presentation that has come along with the Masters is nice.

I did an interview with the game designer last week if anyone wants to check it out
Interview: 'Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12' - The Game Guys

The only thing I don't like so far is that in career mode - which is called Road To The Masters now - has DLC courses mixed into the season schedule. So if you don't buy that course, you have to skip it. And I believe there's 6 of those on the tour sked. They're 320 points each. I don't like that. But so far I like the game play. The wind is inconsistent, but that always seems to be the case in Tiger Woods.

 

[poodski]

Yeah I think its like 32 bucks or something to buy all the DLC courses.

By masters mode, do you mean you get to play Augusta?

I agree 100%. It sucks, I've already had to skip an event. The wind sucks... it could be 15 mph one hole, than no wind at all the next hole.


I'd rate it about a 2.5/5...maybe a 3/5.

 

[tbo41fan]

Damn...32 bucks for all the courses?

 

[zack54attack]

EA is getting ridiculous with all this crap u have to buy. Like the online pass, courses, etc

 

[poodski]

I don't mind the online pass.

 

[tbo41fan]

the online pass is free with the game, you dont really buy it

 

[zack54attack]

Yeah, But if you rented it like me...than.

 

[tbo41fan]

well than yea, that sucks

 

[poodski]

Yeah, But if you rented it like me...than.

You still get a 7 day pass though don't you?

Also maybe next time ask the people at the counter for a pass. I know that family video had that. Might have only been a short term pass but they have them.
