Another year, another Tiger Woods PGA Tour game. The standard of the Tiger Woods games over the years has been relatively high, with Tiger's game being better than most other golf sims. This review focuses on the Wii version of PGA Tour 09.
The game starts with a tutorial, which is very helpful for begginers, allowing you to get used to the sometimes fiddly controls for whacking the ball with your club.
Once you get going and get a few rounds under your belt, you start to realise the cons of the game. For one, the power bar is very hard to control, more often than not hitting it under or over your target power. Often, to achieve a decent hit you have to alter your swing so that it becomes a more unrealistic style, which dissapoints as, being a golf sim, realism is key. But when you hit the ball bang on with a life-like swing, you realise it is possible to both look and play like a pro on this game, if only sometimes.
The putting is probably one of the worst flaws on the game, as it is so unrealistic, for example, even with a two foot put, you will need to swing the wii-mote as if you were hitting the ball with a driver.
Despite these flaws, and once you get used to them, Tiger Woods PGA Tour 09 is a decent golf game, but future PGA's will need some tuning on the Wii versions.
