 Not much progress October 29, 2008

There are three fundamental problems with this game:
(i) The frame rate is abysmal, which is ironic considering the graphics are decent but nothing special. Compared to Gran Turismo Prologue, it is very poor. This also makes using the 3-click system very frustrating.
(ii) There is nothing radically different from Tiger Woods 2008. If you can play 2008 well, you will instantly be good at this game.
(iii) In general terms, the game is far too easy. You can hit the ball much too far. You can make ridiculous scores, even with the putting assistance turned off. When you play online, it is just not much fun because everyone whacks the ball 400 yards off the tee, and most of the clubs are obsolete most of the time.
It's quite an enjoyable knockabout game to play with friends, but as a one player game, it's dull and far too easy.
 So real October 23, 2008

I just got the game today. Must say its loads better than the TW 07 which I've played for months. Just a couple of issues: both games stick or hang for a second one some tee shots, which spoils the illusion.
The other issue is, I cant find the auto-save function, despite following the manual. Oh well, great game, amazing graphics, all the same.
 Real Suprise for non-golf Fan October 20, 2008

My friend got this game... I said yeah I'll play. Thought it would last 5 minutes then back to something else...
What a suprise. We play it every night now, one on one. One or two things need changing- eg no playoff on 2 player if you draw a match- but generally this is excellent.
decent trees at last October 7, 2008

i like tiger woods 09.for me this is the best one yet,the trees look half decent finally and the water looks great also.the rest of the graphics are good but not as good as the ps3 can do but maybe that's because ea are lazy or it's a cross platform game who knows.
the main thing is it's fun in career mode,online or with others and the way your stats go up and up as you get better but go down a bit if you have a bad game i like a lot.
for all the things they could have done i still love the game,next time would be good if they added some extra stuff like your own golf house,golf carts that you can race against your mates and crank up the graphics a bit and i will be well chuffed,as it is i give it 8/10.
 This is becoming a joke...I give up. October 5, 2008

Ok this is going to sound harsh but it needs to be said.
This years tiger is a step too far.
After changing developers after the pretty good 07 version this game has become a glitch laden,bug ridden programme.
Last years game was really awful,as the new team seemed to be adding their touches to the game engine.
However instead of building on the good framework of the 07 version they have turned this into a mess.
This is the team responsible for the dire outlaw golf series and its obvious they haven't learned a great deal since those games.
So without being too critical these are the good and bad points about this years game.
Good points are......
Wentworth course.
Some nice clothes to dress your golfer in.
........Ok now i'm struggling.
Bad things are....
Horrible slowdown which not only looks bad it affects the gameplay as well,use the 3 click swing and you will see what i mean,it judders so much that at times its impossible to use.
Poor a.i which makes the game too,easy..until it decides to cheat you.
Graphics are poor,everything looks fake and cartoony and this year the golfers especially are awful,Paul casey looks like lee westwood and John daly is so poor it's laughable
The models were pretty good in 07,not perfect but really not too shabby,so why change to something that's worse.
Club tuner is a complete waste of time,just hit the ball staight!
Performance coach is another worthless addition with drills that become very tedious,this also suffers from poor programming as you can really do well in game but your skills will still drop.
Commentary has at last been changed this year,but they say the same thing from the same script that was written years ago.
So once again this is another missed opportunity,why bother changing the announcers if your not going to change the script.
However the worst thing i came across while playing was i was up against john daly,who hit his ball into the water,you heard it splash and sam torrence said its in the water,but on his next shot he was on the green and he won the hole in 4,the a.i failing to even realise he had hit it in the water.....Rubbish!
It really isn't good enough,and yet every year they expect you to pay s for the game.
In all honesty i feel the only way this franchise will ever improve is to start afresh with a brand new engine,and also drop the poor development team as well.
I would glady wait 2 years for a good solid version with great gameplay than play this rubbish year in year out.
It's really sad because ive played these since the megadrive days,but i very much doubt i will ever buy again.
