You knew the box didn't say Links 2010. We'd all love a super realistic golf sim, but for now, I am playing Tiger and having a blast. I actually caught myself pumping my fist like Tiger when making big putts.

LOL, true. I've actually been having fun shooting targets and making money so I can buy new duds and equipment. I'm up to 50 grand now!

This game is extremely hard or is it just me, I cannt win a challange against another play for the live of me on amateur! Haha. It is the putting that is killing, but loving it so far, but it is definitely a lot harder than previous years. I was at Tour Pro to began with and I got embarassed big time by Pak, 3 times!

Yeah, it isn't just you. The game is much harder and the CPU opponents are much tougher. They used to always miss those little 3 foot putts in 09, now they all play amazing.

I got embarrassed by that Bjorklund woman with the purple pants! She beat me by 10 strokes in 9 holes at Firestone! In 09 I could beat her by 3 touchdowns easy.

Most of the challenges seem pretty much impossible until one builds up their attributes. I can only drive the ball 230 yards -- can't even reach the fairway on a lot of holes off the tee.

And one more thing that is a major dissapointment year after year...why can't i play career mode as a PGA Tour pro, and not a created golfer. This would be such an easy thing to implement, why can't EA understand that not everybody wants to play as a made up golfer. It is PGA Tour Golf, let us play as a f-ing PGA Tour golfer. Your thought?

Couldnt agree with you more man, Ive always wanted Tiger and other games like UFC or fight night to do this. I do enjoy creating me and playing but there should be a option to just do a PGA tour like you would a season in Madden.

What level are you playing on?

BTW I do love this game, and no it isn't perfect or flawless but it is an enjoyable and fun game

I'm on pro now but will be moving to tour pro soon. I'm just trying to get more feel for the putter, plus I'm trying to unlock as many challenges as I can first.

OK I'm stupid. How do you even play this lady in the purple pants?

I like when my guy drains a birdie putt and rides his putter like a horse. I cracked up when I saw that.

Seriously, you guys can have an opinion on the game, but you knew what you were getting. The demo was out well before the game hit stores. It isn't like they pulled one of those "let's release the demo after the game is out!" deals to fool you.

You knew the box didn't say Links 2010. We'd all love a super realistic golf sim, but for now, I am playing Tiger and having a blast. I actually caught myself pumping my fist like Tiger when making big putts.

After playing the demo, I was expecting the game to be just like 09 with weather and the new putting meter, however I was pleasantly surprised to see quite a few tweaks.

How could you actually find it funny that your golfer rides his putter like a horse, if i was playing with someone or saw someone do that on TV, I would seriously walk off the course or turn off the TV. So lame. That is stupid kids stuff that has no place in a PGA Tour game, unless they want to change the name to Boo Weekley PGA Tour Golf 10. Then maybe I'd expect it. It is not funny, it is just for people like you who think Happy Gilmore is what professional golf is actually like. Watch a damn tournament, it is not like that.

He didn't say the tour was like that, he said he found it funny.

His point is that TW has never been exactly tour like and that the demo made it obvious some of these things wouldn't change this year.

Thanks for insulting me. That's something you wouldn't see on tour either. Before calling people childish, you should look in the mirror.

Maybe you should stop treating your opinion as fact. I find it funny. I actually laughed out loud.

I was brought up to respect the game and taught to play by my grandfather who would never allow me to even wear a t-shirt or jeans when golfing. I still respect that to this day.

When I play a video game in my living room, I don't care that my guy acts like a buffoon. I actually find it funny.

Throw as many personal attacks you want, but it doesn't change the fact that you're playing a video game. People wear racing helmets and pirate outfits. Get over it.

Geez, step back a little.

ITS A VIDEO GAME.

My wife says that to friends and relatives all the time. She's the best!

I agree with you, why must this guy insinuate that the people who bought the game have never watched golf or attempted to play it before? Of course we know things like that never happen.

You're high and mighty stance is quite rude.

As for impressions of this game, because this is what this thread is for, the game is fun. I haven't played a TW game since 06 but enjoyed the previous iterations on the PS2.

The arcade quality of the titles is what kind of drew me in the first place. I'm not ashamed to admit I enjoy mashing my A button around to spin the ball.

A note to unlocking: I think you can change the difficulty of the Tour Challenges if you're strapped for time. Its an easy and fast way to unlock items you can use in modes you're more interested in.

I am very confused at times when I hit very high shots and the ball just backspins. I never saw this in the past games. Is there a way to make it so the loft is not so high? I know there is the loft stick, but perhaps there are other strategies to take into account.

Aside from being a bit rusty, I am enjoying the online tournaments. I think its really cool to go up against real scores even though many players will demolish them. Its still a great concept.

The daily tournaments are a great idea as well. I like the idea of trying to improve my score by seeing how other players do.

The new putting stick is difficult but rewarding. However, I could see it being mastered in a short span. I do enjoy the mechanic though.

One last note to those who continue to post here negatively here, yet was "intelligent" enough to not buy the game:

Please stop it. All you do is make yourselves look bad.


Thanks.

I understand what your saying, but my point is that it is people thinking stupid things like that are funny that make it so us people that actually watch and play golf can't get a game that recreates that PGA Tour experience.

You are right that TW has never been tour like, but my point is that if EA Sports wants to have the exclusive license to the PGA Tour, then we should at least get a PGA Tour game, and I personally feel that it is them catering to all of the weekend warriors who just want to hit 500 yr drives and do dumb celebrations, instead of the people that actually watch and follow PGA Tour golf that is the reason that this game is not even close to resembling the PGA Tour. They should have TW golf, and then another game called PGA Tour 10. That would be awesome, cuz TW is not PGA Tour golf.

I am not trying to be rude, I am just a big fan of golf and think that a PGA Tour video game should resemble the PGA Tour, and I just don't see how riding the putter like a horse, throwing clubs, wearing pirate suits, and dancing like an idiot have anything to do with PGA Tour golf. Just my .02
