Changes for the Worse

User Rating: 6.5 | Tiger Woods PGA Tour 06 PS2
I have always kept up with the Tiger Woods Franchise, and each year it has become better, but not this time. Tiger '06 is still a good golf game but the changes made from 05 to 06 dont really cut it for me.

The New Shape stick seems Redundant as i very rarely would have a need for using this new feature, which was already available in 05 with slightly different (better) controls.

The new Skills 18 has nothing on the Skill Zone of previous years it just seems a bit dull and is basically like playing a round of golf badly on purpose...Doesnt make sense..

The new Putting system can take a while to get use to and are a bit more difficult than previous (which is probably a good thing) but i still think it needs improvement to get the correct balance of Difficulty.

The new Rivals mode is different to previous seasons b ut not really in a good way, it seems that there is less of a challenge and also less diversity.

Tiger 06 also starts with no Tutorials to show the new features or even introduce new players to the game.

Basically Tiger 05 is still the pinnacle of the Tiger Woods series to me and playing 06 has only drawn me back to playing 05 through again, i think i will have to wait and see what EA has in store for Tiger 07..
