More of the same
Tiger woods has always been the best golf game. This year is no change. EA seem to think that a tweak here and there makes for a new game. It doesn't. There is nothing wrong with this years, just as last years was perfectly adequate. This year the increased crowd has made it feel more like the PGA and TV golf but it could still go further. The new putting system is very basic and easy. The new courses are very nice but it still feels like an old dog in a new dress. Don't get me wrong, if you want golf on the PS3 this is the game but EA really need to innovate rather than update each year.

Frustrating...
Overall, possibly one of the better golf games i have played. And with the tournament element thrown in, its good.

But....the most frustrating part of the game, 90% of the time, is the exact ( ok, no shot can be exactly the same but it can be 80/90% similar ) same shot. Wind/Length of rough/distance ....etc, etc.. and the outcome of the shot is nowhere near even slightly similar !

I have played it online, and others have chatted with me about this one( i must the only ONE drawback) issue with the game.

So, if you can get over this 'glitch' in the game, then i would recommend this.

Maybe i am a perfectionist, but this one issue really does get my goat.

More realism is a step in the right direction.
EA has gone for realism with Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10. The course selection features all the classics but none of the off-putting "fantasy courses" (although one of these, Predator, can be downloaded for a fee). The introduction of weather is a nice challenge although you may wish you were playing in fairer climes as the courses' proclivity for downpours can get rather tiresome.

Online modes are as good as before, with the novel "Play the Pros" feature enabling players to participate in real tournaments against live scores from actual players. Yet niggles remain: dynamic skills, whilst an improvement on the previous system of skilling up from scratch, still penalise players for strategically played rounds. And the realism even extends to the option to actually pay for clubs and kit in a bid to bypass earning items through play. From day one players were able to maximise skills and equipment for various small fees - an insidious tactic, particularly galling when you want to challenge others online.

Tiger works best when it concentrates on realism and this is definitely a step in the right direction.
