Tiger Woods 10

[phar]

Hey,

Ill begin by saying ive not really played many golf games before. I got this game out at the video store and its just far too easy. I did one course and scored -1 for my first go of the game. What is the skill in this game? it automatically selects your club and all you need to do is flick the controller stick back and forth to swing and maybe adjust a little for wind. I got most of my hits at about 95%+

Am I totally missing something with this game? I do enjoy going to play golf ever so often.. but this game is just as bad as watching it on TV.

PS. This is playing the game on 360. I know the Wii version is a lot better.. but its still quite a popular game on all systems.

Well yeah it is golf.. but I was expecting a bit more interaction with the game rather than flicking the left joystick every 20 seconds.. Most of the time if the weathers good you dont even have to bother to setup or aim the shot since it does it automatically basically.

I see Tiger Woods golf hasn't changed in the five years since I last played a TW game. I wrote a review for GameFAQs for TW2005 in which I said it "has all the challenge of a maze on a Happy Meal box." EA hasn't made a remotely challenging golf game since the old SNES/Genesis PGA Tour games, and that was mostly because of the glitchy three-click swing mechanic.

Ah good to hear.

The last golf game I played was Mario Golf on the 64 and I actually enjoyed it. TW10 you could play from the next room or not even look at the screen and still get a reasonable score.

The round that sparked my review comment was a 46 I shot at Coeur d'Alene from the black tees. I've had rounds at mini-golf courses that weren't that low.
