In fact around the third hole with +5 on the tally I just started taking pot-shots at the crowd.
To say that this game is frustrating would be an understatement. My initial experience was filled with excessive cursing, forehead slapping and controller throwing. This made absolutely no difference to my golf game though. Of course, the crowd is hushed by dudes with big signs before each shot so you have no distractions. I’m certain I even heard a “You can do it!” shouted out at one stage. This means every shot you take is responded to in an appropriate manner, from raucous cheering through to groans of disappointment. EA have also expanded the course-side crowds in their numbers and improved their reactions too. The environments are breath-taking and supposedly mimic the actual courses with every bit of detail (I wouldn’t actually know, but they are varied to include all varieties of landscapes and challenges with water hazards and bunkers galore). The roster of characters represent their real-life counterparts nicely, especially the lead star Tiger – whose facial detail and trade-mark animations are captured perfectly.

Rain and wind can now affect your ball’s flight, requiring you to adjust your techniques to suit the conditions. This time round fans can finally hit the green in the coveted US Open at the notorious Bethpage Black course in Long Island.Īnother impressive new feature lies in the weather conditions that can now play havoc on your handicap. Now EA have taken big steps forward in their 2010 version with regards to the inclusion of some of the biggest tournaments in golfing history. But the Tiger Woods franchise hasn’t evolved too much with regards to the gameplay since their 2008 release.

And a pickle.ĮA have pleased sports fans over the last couple of years by adding new, much welcomed features to their range of titles – especially to the FIFA series for example. So the question is, should I be reviewing a golf game? We here at NZGamer believe in objective writing - so the following is from someone who wouldn’t know the difference between a Nine Iron and a turkey sandwich.
