Other than the menus, I am really enjoying the controls. I am not sure yet how "sim" they are, but it is still a lot of fun and they function well on the course.

Re: How Do You Like the Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 13 Kinect Controls?

I am enjoying the Kinect controls. However, I have found a couple of issues that occur randomply that need to be patched.

1. About once and sometimes twice per round, I will set up a shot, put my hands together in my grip to get ready to swing and the Kinect will swing for me with no action from me. This usually ends up with a decent result, but it should not be happening at all. I have posted this on the EA Tiger forums and the Dev Team is aware of it.

2. The other issue is the opposite of the one above. There are times during a round I will set up a shot, address the ball, swing, and nothing happens other than going back to the shot setup screen. This is annoying and I have made the Devs aware of this as well.

Otherwise, I prefer the Kinect interface to the controller and if EA can resolve the two issues I have posted above, I won't touch my controller again for this game.

Re: How Do You Like the Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 13 Kinect Controls?

My problem with the Kinect is that it isn't getting my full swing. For some reason on my back swing, sometimes it won't get the full back swing and the ball will go like a 50-100 yards less than it should on drives. Sometimes it does but I have stop using kinect because of it. Instead of doing a normal golf swing sometimes I would have to do a back swing and put it above my head like if I was a batter waiting on a pitch. Really annoying me and I have calibrated it again and moved the kinect around and still getting this.

How accurately do you feel it represents your golf swing, and does making adjustments matter?

Sounds like most of you aren't having my problem. How far are you all standing back? Maybe that is causing my problem. At work so can't check.
