A few changes from previous Tiger Woods games

- a more serious feel to this one with no pirate costumes or Happy Gilmore style swings
- addition of caddie to set-up shots for you (if you want to) - Speeds the game up but can make you play a little on auto-pilot
- Graphics are amazing in HD
- Good gameplay and challenging on Tour Pro setting

Bad things
- To fully enjoy the game you need to download additional courses. This will cost you around �40 in addition to the cost of the game - I'm fine with additional content if its optional but much of it is neccesary just to complete the normal game!
- No overview of the holes or zoom to ball option which means that if you want to set shots up yourself you are mostly shooting in the dark. A serious omission in my view.
- DON'T download the predator course it's ridiculous!! Unless you like hacking a ball through a jungle and putting on greens on a 45 degree angle - waste of money
- EA... Read more

Having owned 09/11 and now 12 - i think that this is the best yet.

On the normal settings the game is not that challenging, but there is scope to make this really difficult. If you have 11 you probably will not see much difference except your playing for the masters rather than Ryder cup. So only bother to buy this if your a real fan (although you can bring forward your XP). If you have 09 then its probably worth the upgrade.

Summary fun game play, easy to use online, daily challenges on most holes and courses although how some people can drive 450meters is still a mystery to me. Some of the courses that are on the schedule are not included so you have to download them at extra cost which i think is a bit rich. extra course I kind of understand but when they are part of the main game just an excuse to charge more money.

Here's my opinion of Tiger Woods 12: The Masters.

Graphics:

As usual with EA games the graphics are very good generally. The Masters is no exception. The Augusta course itself is very well realised and looks great. The other courses (not including the downloadable courses as I haven't seen them) also look very good. The professional golfers may not look exactly like their real life counterparts but it's not hugely important that they do, (since you very rarely see much of them) they're still well detailed though.

Your created golfer will sadly have a limited variety of looks and after making three or so different golfers they all had a similar appearance. Clothing and equipment for your created golfer is not huge to begin with as most of it gets unlocked at either the later stages of the "road to the Masters" mode or through sponsor challenges (a very long winded way of getting new apparel).

Its a shame then that the on course spectators... Read more
