Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

In spite of the lack of the competition where PC golfing games are concerned, there’s little reason to feel disappointed at just having Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2005 to pick from. That’s unless you feel let down, of course, by majestic visuals, sublime gameplay and an all-round quality gaming experience.

Catering for all levels of experience thanks to five well-pitched difficulty ratings, it’s an incredibly easy game to get to grips with. Intuitive from the off, you can pick from numerous golfers and courses, each of which are realised exceptionally well. Graphically, the game is outstanding, and given the vast number of gameplay choices available, it’s going to last you a very long time.

The drawback is that things really haven’t come that far since the 2004 edition. Sure, there are different courses to play on, and welcome they are. Then there’s a brand new Tiger-Proof mode that lets you modify those courses to squeeze every ounce of playability and difficulty from them, although it’s unlikely to be a feature you’ll use that often. And as for the gameplay? It really hasn’t changed that much, with those fresh courses the main attraction.

Yet still, you can’t go far wrong with Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2005. Whilst it’s disappointing that the game hasn’t come on too much in the last year, there is the small factor that it was, and still is, one of the finest sports games on any format. Few games offer quite as much replay value, and that should be ample compensation for the lack of a decent competitor.--Simon Brew

Manufacturer's Description

Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2005 challenges you to take on the man who has changed golf forever--Tiger Woods. The revolutionary new Tiger Proofing course alteration technology allows you to modify course dynamics and call out your PGA Tour rivals by adding lengthier Tiger Tees, tighter fairways, dramatic undulations to greens, deeper bunkers, higher rough, and more. An enhanced EA Sports Game Face featuring non-proportional bone scaling and texture blending creates incredibly realistic looks, right down to the bags under your eyes. After making a name for yourself on the Tour, tee off against legends including Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus, and Ben Hogan to see how you stack up against the all-time greats. Change the way golf is played with Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2005.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best upgrade in the series, 5 Jan 2005
Although the game interface has not changed a great deal, this is one of the better upgrades in the Tiger Woods series. Quite apart from the new courses, there is much more gameplay than the previous editions. As far as other golf games go, this golf game is still streets ahead of the competition.

Graphically, there are huge improvements. St Andrew's in the 2004 edition looked very drab, even on a sunny day. Now there is much more attention to detail, and it looks much better. All the courses look great.

As well as the familiar tournaments, there are many more innovative game modes to consider. All the game modes can be played at any time, so if you have had enough tournaments for the time being, you can take on a legend in the legend tournament, or go back to creating your dream 18 course which lures other legendary players to challenge you on your course.

It's a little more difficult to progress than before. You can't seriously take on the Tiger Proof courses in competition mode until you build up your power and length attributes. So despite the lack of change in the swing methods, (which to be fair don't really need much changing...)there is a greater and more interesting challenge than that experienced previously.

The only thing that grates with me, (and I guess I'm old fashioned...) is that there is a more hip feel to this edition. I can tolerate the rap music (just!), but having various players jiving and break dancing on the greens after holing a monster putt is going just a little too far! I would like to see this side replaced with the traditional etiquette of the game - how about the players shaking hands at the end of the game, or your opponent applauding a good shot of yours? Most of us don't slamm clubs down to the ground in disgust (even though we'd like to sometimes) - I just think the hip part of the game may appeal to younger folk, but it's been overdone.

It's soon forgotten though, as miserable folk like me can hit the escape button to forgoe these insane trivialities and get on with the next shot!!

The only other downer in this game is the commentators - the advice given sometimes is wholly wrong!! Don't listen to them all the time!! And I just love it when David Ferhty (spelling???...) comes up with something like "That's going to be short",when the ball rolls up and drops into the hole.

Golf fans new to the genre - buy this game. It's good. Tiger Woods 2001-2004 fans, buy this game too. It's well worth it.

5.0 out of 5 stars The ultimate golf game, 19 July 2005
Simply the best golf game out there. The most realistic graphics and game play. Anyone can play this, I even have my 4 year old daughter playing this although she struggles with the putting. If you are after a golf game then this is the best.

(REAL NAME)   
I bought this game at the weekend as i couldn't be bothered waiting for the ps2 version to come out after all the bugs n that.

Even though you have to use the mouse instead of a pad its still as good if you played tiger woods 2004 youll love 2005 with even better graphics more stuff to unlock even more golfing legends you will find your self playing this game non stop like me.
