Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 10 Impressions (PS3, 360)

[kindella2]

i agree that all the course should be unlocked...but the equipment should have to be unlocked through playing the game. on PS3 i would have to pay for the course...but I know i love this game cuz im acting like i dont know when to go to bed anymore. last 2 nights i have been up til 11:30 like i dont have to get up and go to work. Damm shame.

I really don't agree with the statement that there wouldn't be a point to the career unless you have the unlocks. I play the career to try and win tourneys, build stats etc. , but to each his own.

Exactly. I don't get why games "need" this. I finally gave up and paid to unlock the courses. There's just no way I will ever get through all those challenges.

Not only are they time consuming, but they are much more difficult as well. There's no way I will have time to do this. I was playing one where you have to score -3 on 4 par 3 holes and my guy doesn't even have the equipment/attributes to reach the green with anywhere near enough accuracy to score birdies.

I love how putting is harder, but they make those challenges too difficult now. You have to play nearly perfect golf for those and that is not very realistic or fun for me.

I just want to play golf. I'm still going to have to go through some to get some equipment. Right now I haven't played in any online tournaments because I know I don't stand a chance against others with the default stuff.

On top of that, I am enjoying the game but I don't want to play it every spare minute I get. I can never just play one game constantly like some, no matter how good it is. I need variety, not a treadmill.

Everyone is saying that if you don't like that cheesy celebration, big-hit cameras, awful commentary BS than just turn it off...but that doesnt solve the problem. I am not trying to just have a full golf sim with none of the TV broadcast elements, and I don't think it is too much to ask to get both. If I turn off the celebrations, than yes I won't get the cheesy riding my putter like pony celebrations, but then I also won't get the dramatic fist pumps or any emotion in the game at all. EA just needs to change all this happy gilmore BS, and take it out of the game completely. We should be able to have celebrations, but not over the top stupid weekend warrior celebrations...again just watch a broadcast of golf on TV, and make a game like that...the TW series needs a change IMHO. This would make a much better game that actually lets us get immersed into the PGA Tour, and not make us cringe everytime our supposed PGA Tour golfer shouts "get in your hole" or smiles wide and starts dancing after throwing his putter. PGA Tour golfers don't do that, and actual real golfers don't do that...the only people that would do that in real life is people that don't really know, watch, respect, or play the game.

I can't believe the celebrations bother you guys that much. If the game plays a realistic game of golf, that's all that matters to me. I skip all the celebrations anyways, too impatient lol

Do you think watching Tiger Woods come from behind to win (like he did at the Memorial) would be as much fun to watch w/o the dramatic fist pumps, or the emotion that goes along with sinking a 30 footer to get into the lead. The answer is no, this game has no emotion w/o celebrations...but it is way to cheesy with celebrations the way they are now.

I'm liking this game so far but maybe that's because I haven't bought a Tiger Woods game in probably 5 or 6 years.

I have only golfed as Tiger so far. Playing on Tour Pro with all settings on Hard and wind at about 9 miles per hour.

Shot an 87 at Spyglass last night.

Shot a 73 at TPC Sawgrass just a few minutes ago.

You guys can go ahead and start laughing at me now.

couldn't agree more.

And one more thing that is a major dissapointment year after year...why can't i play career mode as a PGA Tour pro, and not a created golfer. This would be such an easy thing to implement, why can't EA understand that not everybody wants to play as a made up golfer. It is PGA Tour Golf, let us play as a f-ing PGA Tour golfer. Your thought?
