Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2004

THE GOOD:
Beautiful new courses, game face creator, more RPG elements, same great physics and game play.

THE BAD:
Too easy to succeed. Not enough challenging NPC's.

SUMMARY:
I love this franchise! But it gets pretty boring after a while, it's just too easy to win. I usually end up winning by more than 10 strokes per round, even against Sunday Tiger.

I think the game would be much improved by making it way more easy to hook or slice the ball on a less than perfect swing. I understand that that would mean beginners would really struggle at first, but maybe three different difficulty settings could be implemented. Something like "weekend hack", "tour Pro" and "golf god" settings. Other than that, the best golf game ever created! Even though I usually dominate, I still come back to it time and time again. Perfect game to kill time with!

THE GOOD:
Name Brand Sponsorship, new courses, create your own player, music, real time calendar, world tour...

THE BAD:
No Online play for XBOX, it's a real shame that EA and Microsoft can't see I to eye on this, it is taking away one of the best part of the game.

SUMMARY:
I have to say I didn't think the game could get any better. After playing TW03 and being teased with the limited online game play I was truely dissappointed, almost to the point of boycotting EA, but I broke down and bought the game anyway. It remains the crown jewel of golf games. With the added courses, players and game modes EA really has taken it to the next level. The best feature is the name brand sponsorship with names like Callaway, Taylor Made, Nike and Cleavland, you really feel like you are in a golf fantasy world. On top of that you can create a player to your own likeness or one that is just plain silly. Right now I am pimped out with a crazy mullet,...
