If you're hitting good shots here it's because you're good at those shots, not because you bribed the game into making them easier. The more you play the better you get, and while it'll be a lengthy wait before you can challenge the pros, it also eliminates the super-golfer syndrome that kicked in during previous Tiger Woods games, where shrewd upgrading could turn a wannabe into a champ far too quickly. If you want to improve your putting, you need to practice putting. The new 'wasp's eye view' camera: not as useful as you might think. It's also refreshingly realistic, meaning you have to approach the game as you would in real life.
It's a long and often arduous process, and one that will inevitably frustrate many.
Your skills are automatically enhanced whenever you play well so, even if you lose a round, provided you were getting better at, say, driving then your skill in that area goes up regardless. Whereas the tradition in previous games was to allow you to earn and allocate points to increase your different skills, this time EA has taken a more organic route to self-improvement. Tackling the PGA tournaments with such a golfer is a waste of time, so you're forced instead to spend your time in the additional game modes - especially Tiger Challenge - to build up your skills. Fudging putts, hooking drives and generally making you wonder if your fingers have been replaced with sausages filled with wool. The most sweeping change in this regard is the one that you probably won't notice until you've created your own golfer and played with them for a while. The biggest additions to the game - the much vaunted GamerNet and Game Photo Face functions - are sort of sitting off to the side of the main game itself, so let's do a quick recap of the mostly positive enhancements made to the actual gameplay before we tackle those features.
Gameplay, for once, has undergone some obvious changes.
#Tiger woods pga tour 08 atricles of clothig amounts update#
Last year's update improved on that uninspiring start (not a difficult task) and, inevitably, this latest variation offers an even more tweaked and buffed experience.īut is it enough to entice the suspicious multitudes into making a purchase? The answer: probably. Is it that time of year already? The time when another Tiger Woods golf game ambles onto the fairway of life, prompting us all to chuckle at how it's the same as the last one and who buys these things and blah blah blah? Such cynicism is understandable, given the rather lazy port which heralded the series' next-gen debut with PGA Tour 06.
