        I couldn't agree more, very well said.

        I don't recall exactly, but weren't there other camera options in Tiger Woods?

          The biggest part of this announcement for me is that they dropped the number. They could be setting this up as a semi-regular, non-annual franchise like Fight Night used to be (or like EA UFC could be, depending on their plans). That would be for the better.

            screenshots look nice

            however I absolutely HATE they have TPC Scottsdale as a pre order bonus. Why take a course that has been in the game and a favorite for as long as i can remember and make it a DLC pretty much

            Thats EA for you, surprised it wasnt Pebble Beach

                  But The Golf Club is my new all-time favorite golf game. A real Home Run, a Hole-in-One, and a Touchdown all wrapped up in a video game.

                    mmm while TW 11 was the last one I had and I just don't know about golf club because I don't know what the controls are like compared to tiger.

                      IMO golf club is incredible and still getting better, controls are simple, nothing crazy, it's all up to the course designer, on how difficult or easy the game plays.

                          They posted a sample on the presentation page of the commentary and it sounds fantastic.

                              I'm going to pre order to get the free course....what's the risk really....If it stinks it's 50 bucks....not like it's a major purchase here...It's slightly more than a tank of gas....the way some people carry on you would think they charge 10 grand for it.
                              The Gold Club has plenty of users making real course layouts and they are quite good.
