  • Summary: Tiger Woods 06 pits you against Tiger Woods in a battle to be the best golfer of all time. You can play golf greats in their own eras on their terms to prove that you are the best ever. Tiger Woods 06 includes greater shot control and a "gamebreaker" meter that models the momentum of professional golf competition. You can play on 15 courses, both licensed and fantastical. "Game face" features return to let you customize a character and take him or her through an entire 52-week PGA season. Tiger Woods 06 also adds more multiplayer modes and capabilities. Expand

  1. Other than the sound, Tiger Woods PGA Tour 06 does everything needed to help give the franchise a breath of fresh air. It's nice to see that EA Sports can do more than just throw in one new play or change one part of a game.
  2. The game suffers from a baffingly stupid and fundamental flaw that puts a crimp in all that style: Season Mode and Rivals Mode have no difficulty levels. [Nov 2005, p.120]
  3. There are things to nitpick, but as a whole, the game is excellent and a joy to play. It is steeping with realism and challenge.
  4. If EA wants people to buy these games year in, year out, then it has to fight for those high marks, and Tiger Woods doesn't know how to do that any more.

    06 deserves a 3 because it's mildy worse than last years game and is full price after minor tweaks. They really shouldn't have taken out the custom soundtrack from 2005. Get ready to listen to more lame 'ea trax'. Expand

    This series has ran its course, far too easy just boring.

    EA drops the ball on another '06 game. The graphics are only mildly improved, but seem fuzzier. Not everyone has an HD TV. You can't skip cut scenes, the putting is insanely easy, the commentary quite often has nothing to do with what just happened, the shot caller feature is missing basic things such as long drive and closest to the pin, the menus are clunky, and the selection of equipment seems much worse. Anyone who has actually played a real round of Golf knows that putts are not automatic and shots don't always go straight. EA has created this odd in between area where the game isn't quite arcade and it isn't quite sim. What does this mean? It means it is quite boring. There is very little sense of accomplishment to anything. '03 remains the best version yet. Even last years '05 was far more fun than this years version. Expand
