Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11

SCORE: 91

EA Sports has stuck with Tiger Woods in spite of his plethora of recent personal problems. I really do not want this review to focus on his personal problems, instead I want to focus on this video game. Speaking of focus Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11 has an all new Shot Focus mechanic. You can boost, spin, and improve your accuracy. Golf enthusiasts will be happy to know the Ryder Cup is included in Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11. The team modes will interest families that play together.

I noticed a lot of fantastic graphics in Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11. There are some little touches that go a very long way. I noticed things like the wind knocking around players pants in certain areas. The grass looks realistic, as do the golfers. The fans are decent looking, but not as detailed as the golfers. Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11 contains various visual effects that will interest most gamers. Getting to project a putt was one of my personal favorites.

I found myself enjoying the announcers even if I was not clear on what they meant on certain holes. They will offer various advice that is helpful. The music is okay in Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11. I enjoyed the special effect sounds. There can be some silence in Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11, but that is because you really need to focus on what you are doing. Obnoxious noise would not have fit the theme of this home console game.

EA Sports has been known for their extra features for decades now. Man that makes me feel really old. Anyways Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11 is no exception. There is online modes as well as local multiplayer modes. Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11 contains a wide array of challenges that can be used to upgrade the skills of your golfer. Multiple modes will keep you busy for months. Learning all the skills, and courses may also take some time. If you like golf, then your money will be well spent on Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11.

I advise everyone to start with the tutorial. There are very important skills that you will need later in the game. Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11 can be easy to play, or very difficult. A lot of that depends on you. Are you patient enough to get the right shot?  Will you try and force something through, and get a water hazard? The controls work well, and are easy to use. I had no issues there. Learning when to use my focus took some time, but I picked that up.

Golf is one of the tamer sports out there. Well tennis is generally pretty family friendly too. Families can be assured that Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11 is overwhelming safe for families. There are also concepts like gravity that can be discussed. I am very impressed with Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11, and am curious to see what additions next year will bring. I will be recommending this game to friends and family members.
