Best Golf Game (Tiger Woods PGA Tour '07)

Computer Games - Tiger Woods PGA Tour 07 | MediumFor most of us, the only way we're ever going to play St Andrew’s Links is on a computer or game console. Whether you're a game fanatic or just looking to pass a rainy afternoon that turned your local links into a marsh, Tiger Woods PGA Tour '07 will let you play like a pro on the world's top courses.

Tiger Woods may have lost his first playoff in years this November in Japan, but the golf game from Electronic Arts that bears his name and likeness continues to reign supreme. The Tiger Woods game franchise from EA Sports has had both the time and budget to be honed into the sharpest golf series on any platform. The game is simple enough to learn. If you've never played a golf game before and are looking for an alternative to hefting those irons down to the club, Tiger Woods PGA Tour is simplicity itself to pick up and learn on any platform.

The Greatest Golf

Computer Games - Tiger Woods PGA Tour 07 | MediumMuch of the joy in Tiger Woods PGA Tour is in playing the greatest courses on Earth (and a few clever, imaginary ones) with some of the greatest golfers ever. Tiger Woods PGA Tour '07 adds many of the game's legends missing from previous instalments, but all the recent Tiger Woods games have allowed you to create your own customised golfer. There are so many options in character creation that you can invent your golfing doppleganger or the most outrageous human avatar you can dream up. Of course, any new golfer begins with limited abilities, and only through extensive play can you unlock superior golfing skills to make your golfer the equal of Woods himself.

All the recent installments in the Tiger Woods series provide a satisfying golf experience. The courses are so well-modelled that the real-world courses are instantly recognisable and become familiar friends after considerable play. Even the sound and commentary are both thorough and clever. This is, after all, the game that helped push David Feherty’s commentating career into the spotlight.

A Question of Version

The real difficulty in selecting a golf game is not in choosing the game (it should be Tiger Woods PGA Tour), but in choosing the version. The game is available for most platforms, including the PC as well as the newest and last generation of consoles. So if you only have access to one way to play (perhaps you only have a PC, or someone in the household has a PlayStation 2), your choice is easy. But there are differences between the versions. The PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions have superior graphics. The PlayStation 2 and Xbox versions come pre-loaded with more courses, but more content can be downloaded (for a fee) on more recent consoles. And the PC version is slightly more challenging than the console versions.

And the choice gets even more complicated. The main criticism of the Tiger Woods series is that recent installments of the game have made only incremental improvements rather than transforming play. So, if you’re looking to save a little cash, purchasing an older version of the game gets you substantially the same game at a bit of a saving.

Since ProductSifter is here to help make your choices easy, you’ll get the most game for the money if you purchase Tiger Woods PGA Tour ’07 for the PC. But if you don’t have a gaming-quality PC, don’t be afraid to purchase the game for another platform. (Compare Prices)
