Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 (PS3)

Since returning from injury Tiger Woods has reasserted himself as the best golfer in the world. Being "the best" means high expectations -- expectations that Woods has been living up to, but what about his video game equivalent? The short answer is that Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 is the best golf game around. It has a plethora of new features that build upon the foundation laid down by last year's highly acclaimed version and dominates the (digital) greens much like the golfer it's named after.

THE VERDICT by Will Herring Will Herring's Avatar As my go to guy for anything sports related, it didn't take much for Nathan to sell me on Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10. With spectacular multiplayer, truly next gen visuals and one hell of an impressive roster, PGA Tour 10 unquestionably a must-own title for any golf fan.

Right Down The Fairway

It's always a mystery who will get the call to join Tiger's gang in the latest version of PGA Tour but this year, that decision was made easy by the performance of Anthony Kim and Rocco Mediate who both proved themselves more than worthy of getting digitized. Along with the upgraded roster, the courses got a massive face-lift as well; especially impressive are the expanded spectator groups who follow you around.

Dynamic Weather conditions, powered by the Weather Channel, also influence your performance and while it's a nice addition, it's ultimately nothing more than a fancy gimmick. There's also the useful yet somewhat fickle "Precision Putting." Instead of five putters that go a variety of distances, you get one putter that stretches all the way from one inch to 100 feet. The new putting stroke is frustrating at first, as it is a significant change from last year's putting style but after a couple of rounds you should get a feel for it and making putts should become less difficult. If putting isn't your specialty and the learning curve is too steep for you can switch to a traditional three-click system.

I know the pics don't do the game justice, but I can easily notice the graphical overhaul.

I can't wait to pwn my bro in Tiger Woods '10

The only thing that I have to nitpick about this game is that for the 6 new courses on the demo it introduced Bethpage Black, Pinehurst # 2 and Torrey Pines as being new, which if you have played the past games you know that they have been on the roster before. They just haven't been on in the last couple of years. Shame on you EA.

Other than that, I can't wait for this game either.

I had the choice b/t 360, PS3 and Wii. The Wii version while ugly as hell is prob the best one. You have to get the motion plus contraption though. I actually got a hole in one on a short par three. Buy what you want, but if you have a choice go with the Wii version. I really don't play the Wii (more for my son), but this is a good example of what can be done with a little work.

That's really funny... Let's start asking about the Conduit review on every GamePro article... sure it will get old eventually, but not for a while HEY WHERE'S MY OBJECTIVE REVIEW OF THE CONDUIT? HUH, GAMEPRO, HUH?

Why am I not surprised there isn't a review of the Wii version? What really really surprised me was the dude that reviewed this was bold(and stupid) enough to say "PGA Tour 10 unquestionably a must-own title for any golf fan." about the PS3/360 version, lol.

I think I will get this for Wii. First Wii game purchase in over 6 months. Now thats sad :(

Loved the demo and thought, "This may be the year I buy Tiger Woods"....then I downloaded NCAA Football '10 and decided to go with NCAA. I love golfing (real life and video-game) but it's not entertaining enough for me to spend $60 for a videogame on, whereas I could spend $60 to play on a real golf course.
