Video Game Reviews of Tiger Woods PGA Tour 07
Customer Review: Can I get a little realism? And a new caddy?
Summary: 2 Stars
Most of the time, you expect the physics of a golf game to be a little more forgiving than real life. It is the complete opposite in this game. I think pro golfers would do more poorly playing Tiger Woods 07 than doing the real thing.
What kind of caddy would recommend a club that hits directly into the middle of a water hazard? If you have to hit over a water hazard from the rough, you might as well hit backwards to the fairway. Why? The rough acts like velcro to your ball, and makes it like swinging through water with your club. I've golfed a time or two in real life, and with a good followthrough, I can hit a shot from the rough almost as far as from the fairway. In general, the ball doesn't roll as far as it would in real golf, even on the fairway. And the rough just kills it. I'm proud to say I downloaded this game with the intention of buying it if I liked it, because now I've saved myself the money. It's worthless. Go play real golf; you'll have more fun even if you suck at it.
Customer Review: What a P.O.S.
Summary: 1 Stars
For once in my life I actually understand now when people write `If I could give it zero stars I would.' This version of TW is not fit to be a coaster on a table. I think the people of Electronic Arts owe everyone that bought this trash an apology, as well as a refund. It's Ironic that they do not even print an e-mail address in the manual for this game to contact the customer support department. The only true way to get a hold of them is to create an account on their website. Here are my complaints about the game:
1st It doesn't work, when I mean it doesn't work, it wont boot in three of my computers, all being well above the minimum in system requirements.
2nd in the single system it does work in, you must disable everything in the startup using msconfig and reboot the system with nothing running on the system, meaning zero firewall, zero AV, nada zip zilch.
3rd you must be running current drivers on EVERYTHING, or actually I found it that through updating my single systems DirectX to version 10, Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS card and as well as my Radon x1650 it finally work, when I included the 2nd step above, mind you this was only one single time. It never worked after that.
I went so far as to rebuild the one computer fresh that is did work on. I figured well, it's been about a year I'll freshen up the computer with a new install of XP on a formatted hard disk with all the patches. It never worked again after that.
I know this will more then likely fall of deft ears and EA junk creators will never see this which is a travesty, because I know that if I sold a product such as this or did not care to support it I'd be out of business.
It is in my book the biggest piece of trash someone could every buy.
PLease dont waste your MONEY or time on this product.
Customer Review: Where's the improvement?
Summary: 2 Stars
It's pretty evident why this game crashed in price so quickly - it's no improvement over the 2004 version despite EA having 3 full years to give the series more gas.
It looks the same, plays the same, takes away the Hawaii courses and actually seems to play a bit slower even though I have a fairly robust PC - Core2 6300 + 7600GT Overclocked + 1.5GB RAM.
At $20 or less it's pretty much a disposable game, and for first time buyers you might as well take the plunge. For upgraders, you should wait, and continue to enjoy the 2004 version.
Customer Review: A lot of Fun
Summary: 4 Stars
The graphics are real nice, Fun game to play will take hours to get real good. Which makes this game enjoyable for a long long time. Customer Review: Online community is a bit small
Summary: 3 Stars
If you are looking to play this game online primarily and don't have a buddy to play with, good luck finding other players to play with.
