Most of the games for X-box PS2 etc are designed for YOUNG people who have great hand/ eye coordination and lightning fast reflexes. This is fine but I am 56 years old and cannot play most of these games (at least not very well). But THIS ONE I am not only playing but I'm doing very well at it. It is loads of fun. I don't even play Real Golf but I still enjoy this game a lot. It is expensive but worth it. I don't compete online in ANY Games as these young folks would kill me!

Having bought and played the EA Sports Tiger Woods series since it came out I have a pretty good idea of what is to be expected. I loved TW 2004 and played that game until the disc starting smoking and caught on fire. For all the people who want to buy a golf game and don't have TW 2004 you should buy this game especially since you can buy 2005 for thirty bucks now. If you have 2004 and also have Xbox live you should buy 2005 since the online play is great. If you don't have Xbox live I will break down what I like and dislike about the game.What I like about TW 2005 -
First of all the basic controls are the same and gameplay is almost exactly the same they did add Tiger vision but I will get back to that later. The graphics are similar and the courses are similar. There are more golfers to choose from and I am very excited that Natalie Gulbis is added again this year because she is beautiful and she adds alot to the LPGA tour. There are better clothes this year, and more sponsorships
are available in your PGA tour season. Also they added Tiger-proofing, I haven't really gotten really in depth into that so I can't say to much about it but it looks pretty cool.
What I dislike about TW 2005 -
There is basically one thing. The game is too easy. This is where the Tiger-vision comes into play there is no skill in putting now. They should make the Legends harder. The PGA tour season is too easy. The first tournament I finished 70 strokes ahead of the next person. Other than this I really love this game. I do have one minor complaint. Some of the "fictional" courses have illegal holes. If it is humanly impossible to reach the green in four stokes on a par five that is an illegal hole. I think there is one hole that is a par four and its impossible to reach the green in three strokes too. These are stupid complaints though.
Basically I bought this game because I love the EA Sports Tiger Woods series, if you do as well.....Hurry and buy this game!!
Best Deals for Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2005 - Xbox
Pros: the more customization of players and courses.New courses such as Colonial, Troon North Monument, Turnberry. Edgewood at Tahoe.
Cons: Dropped great courses (unless I somehow can't find them), including Torrey Pines, Pinehurst, Bethpage, Royal Birkdale, Spyglass Hill, Sahalee, TPC Scottsdale, and Poppy Hills.
Game play is pretty much idential to preveious years.
Equipment manufacturers OK = Taylor Made, Ping, Cleveland, Callaway, Nike, and this year Dunlop. Also can buy shafts. But where is the big boy of the golf ball market Titleist?
I'm all for adding improvements in the area of customization for players, but not at the expense of courses to play on. I suggest that if you already have 2004, don't bother buying 2005. If you don't have 2004, 2005 might be a good purchase.
Honest reviews on Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2005 - Xbox
Tiger Woods 2005 is a lot of fun. I had the 2003 version and this was a big upgrade. The game would be ever funner if it wasn't quite so easy.It is kind of stupid too play in a PGA Tour event and shoot 85 under par while the second place guy is at -6.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2005 - Xbox
I've enjoyed playing Tiger Woods for the last 2 years on the XBox. I've been excited for the last year knowing that we will finally be able to play online via XBox Live with the 2005 version.I just confirmed that EA Sports has made this version so that only 2 people, that's right, only TWO can play online at a time. What happened to being able to play 3 other people (4 at a time) online???
Links (from Microsoft) has been out for a year now and one of the best things about that game is that you can have a foursome, just like regular golf.
Tiger Woods 2005 has all the bells and whistles to make a great looking game, however, one of the key selling points for me was being able to play with 4 people online. There are many of us who have been playing Links for the last year waiting for the new Tiger Woods version, and now we are not going to purchase it. It looks like we'll be staying with Links for another year.
Too bad EA Sports, you really dropped the ball on this one.
