Tiger Woods PGA Tour 09 (Wii)

Tiger 09 on the Wii is an excellent improvement over the 2008 edition. You get more courses, more players and a much much improved golf swing using the Wiimote. In previous versions of the game, I'd found that the Wiimote sensors were slightly off, making it difficult to do a proper golf swing and see it accurately replicated on-screen - however, this is no longer the case with Tiger 09... the Wiimote sensor works like a treat! EA have introduced a new 'All-Play' feature for 2009 - making it easier for novices to play against more experienced players. With All-Play turned on, your novice player will receive a helpful guiding line showing exactly ...  Read the complete review

It doesn't take a genius to realise that one of the most obvious games the Wii lends itself to is golf. And you need to know very little about gaming to know how huge EA's Tiger Woods franchise is. But sometimes, what appears to be the easiest thing in the world to get right can lead to disaster. Fortunately, this isn't the case with TW09, in fact it's fair to say that it is one of the best gaming experiences I have ever had. Before we go into why the game shines, let's just for a moment look at the major criticism I'd heard before purchasing TW09 - the putting mechanism. Rumours were that the mechanism was "broken", felt too ...  Read the complete review

Tiger woods golf games have always been a bit of a favourite of mines over the years so i was very keen to try out this new version on he wii. The whole unique concept to this one is that you can use the wii controller like a golf club and that is one of the reasons why i was so keen to try this one out. I have to say that it does turn out to be a bit of a success in some areas but a bit of a let down in others. The whole contol scheme works well enough but it doesnt come without its flaws.The tee off when you are driving down the fairway works very well and is a very smooth experience, the problem can be the second shots and mostly the chip shot ...  Read the complete review

I bought the Tiger Woods 'All Play' Golf game at the same time as a Wii console as I had a £10 off voucher for any game. The game can be obtained for around £16 on its own nowadays as the latest version of the game has just been released. I thought I would probably get tired of the Wii Sports game that comes free with the console quite quickly and want something more realistic and challenging. The graphics are certainly streets ahead of the little cartoon characters that you get with the Wii Sports and there are a good number of courses to choose from. There are practice sessions where you can hone your skills and feedback as to how well you are doing. There ...  Read the complete review

When I bought the Wii, Wii Sports came with it. A Highlight of this game was the golf which in my opinion was really fun to play. After this joyous experience, it became a bit boring so I couldn't wait for a realistic golf game. This was the game we were looking for. To begin with, the graphics are really good compared to the older Wii Sports golf. You can see the people clearly and the golf courses look very realistic. Of course it is said to "not be as good as the PS3" but anything rarely is. So with these graphics, I can hardly complain. Game play is very easy at the beginning - and that is the first two shots or so. You have a little ...  Read the complete review
