    Simply put, this is one of the best golf games ever made, and there's absolutely no reason to pass it up.

    I enjoyed using Move, for swinging, but not much else. Navigating through the game's menus, especially when spending hard won experience points for attribute boosts, required not just the Move's navigation controller but a "normal" controller lest I experience a level of frustration no caddie could talk me down from.

    There's something for everyone with Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12. Now is the perfect time to jump into one of the best series out there as it's never been more accessible. PS Move owners, even non-golf fans, should give it a second look as well.

    Unequivocally the best Tiger Woods game in years. The sheer volume of great content on display here will keep gamers busy for months, and the fantastic Move support is sure to be a hit.

    Coming up with the best golf game took a while, but EA Tiburon's Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12 is undoubtedly the pinnacle of the series. With a new caddie system, a revamped career mode, and the superb Augusta course, 'The Masters' is masterful on many levels.

    Through the years the Tiger franchise has layered on more realistic tour touches like the FedEx championship, the Masters, or the U.S. Open. This year EA's lined things up and knocked the ball down the fairway straight and true.

    My advice is boycott this game, the DLC it offers is nothing short of scandalous and offensive. Why should you pay your hard earned bucks for a game that punishes you for not buying DLC in the career mode!..courses that are in the career mode that are DLC need to be either bought or skipped and you get penalised for skipping too many events!..shame on you EA!...ok offer DLC but dont punish players in the game when they dont buy it!!...man im so angry!… Full Review »

    EA just love to tinker - don't they understand 'if it aint broke then don't fix it!'

    Online is so uninspiring and boring. What happened to th    e 10 second timer? What happened to the online points awarded/deducted for wins/losses? What happened to penalising players who quit?

    Bring back Tiger Woods 10 (unfortunately, online services for TW10 was terminated and shutdown on 11 August 2011).

    Luckily, I managed to play/trial this version for a month (activating and using the one-off one-time online access code which is another annoying feature rendering the game worthless to anyone else) before returning the game for a full money-back refund.

    My advice to lovers of Tiger Woods series (TW10 and previous releases) is like Tiger Woods and his professional career/ranking, this game is rapidly going one way - that is down and further down!    … Full Review »
