Tiger Woods PGA Tour 06 (Xbox 360)
Customer Review: What no Achievement Points
I initially downloaded Tiger Woods 07 on XBOX Live and really enjoyed the demo. Unfortunately I couldn’t find this version in Malaysia, however I did manage to locate the 06 version and decided to buy. The big difference, in fact the only difference, that I noticed between the two versions is the graphics. Whilst the graphics on 06 are very good - on 07 they are simply stunning with a huge improvement in face detail.

The game itself - I have really enjoyed playing. I notice that there have been complaints about the Power boost being on the left bumper button - I don’t have a general problem with this and have got used to the swing with my left thumb and bashing the bumber with my index finger of my right hand. The only issue I have is due to the button configuration if you use power boost it is virtually impossible to use the right hand joystick to draw or fade the shot. It is like some bizzarre form of finger twister!

For me the two drawbacks have been that I have yet to find anyone playing online (I have had the game a month). I do not know if this is because everyone has upgraded to the newer versions or there is a problem with the EA server. The other drawback is that despite having played this game for going on 30 hours I have not achieved any Achievement Points - I have completed most of the challenges - I have completed a round 4 under par. I have 8 holes in One, over 100 birdies - this is frustrating as it appears the level set to get Achievements has been set ridicuously high.

Despite all the above comments - I do enjoy the game - and I suppose if you are looking for a golf experience i.e difficult, frustrating and requiring lots and lots of practice - this is the game for you.

Customer Review: Decent golf game in HD
Not much more needs to be said about the drawbacks of this version - fewer courses than the xbox version, fewer game modes.

I’d like to say that the game is still a decent way to spend a few hours. The graphics look way better than the previous generation, there are regular tournaments on Xbox Live, and it has all the modes I would realistically expect from a golf game.

The one gripe is the use of the Left Bumper for the power shot and spin button - this requires some finger acrobatics for a right handed person and can frustratingly interfere with the swing.

All in all, worth a play, especially at the bargain prices this is now available at. For a full price game, go for the 07 version, which has more features and better controls and targetting.

Customer Review: They give the desired effect… But…
Okay… Giving all of the little problems and good points. 1. The faceplates are relatively good quality, depite being normal faceplates that have been re-sprayed. 2. Some of the paint gets chipped. Although this isnt a problem when at a distance, you can notice up close. 3. The “On” button. This annoyed me. If you lokk at it from the inside, the plastic is much thinner, and this causes the light from the “On” button to seep through, giving a crummy appearence. (This can be solved with a delicate lick of black paint on the back). 4. Mine arrived broken. Be warned! Although this was not a serious problem, those without the correct equipment, or even skills, could be left hopeless! The large flap on the bottom of the faceplate (which you insert USB’s) came loose in its box. The hinge and the “Plate” to hold it on had come off. This needed to be superglued and held in place for 10 minutes each before it could be used! Those without the correct equipment or the know-how to make it stay in place will be snookered! 5. Over-all I’ve enjoyed using these plates. All three came in handy (Silver to match the TV, Black to match the mat underneath, and Desert Camo for me!)… Enjoy!
