Tiger Woods 09

I picked it up last night and love it. The club tuning is cool, the graphics are sweet, and the Hank Haney challenges at the end of each round are really cool. It makes it so that practice will help you out in your next round. Anybody else get it? Thoughts?

do you have 08? i wonder if it's worth getting the new one./

Played it last night and thought it was pretty good. They still havent fixed on approaches where for some reason the longest club you can use is a pitching wedge. Thats been a problem for like 5 years plus now.

I've been playing it. I have 2 or 3 more pros to beat before I get to Tiger. Enjoying it so far.

The Hank stuff seemed ok, but after doing it once or twice, I started skipping it everytime. I would imagine these would be more useful in the PGA events rather than the Tiger Challenges.

I like the dynamic stats. Much quicker. I was a 9.5 in putting within a few hours. Took forever in the old games to build up your player.

I was thinking about that and I don't think you'll be able to (and it wasn't on XBL when I checked the other night). Reason is your stats go up and down after every round. It's not like you get to 110% and it stays there. Miss a few putts and your putting goes down a bit. Miss some fairways and your power will suffer next round. I sort of like this approach. However, I don't think the stats mean as much as they have in the past, so it's all a bit relative.

Much better than 08. I'm playing it on PS3 if that factors in but it's a lot better than last year. FWIW.

I got it yesterday and I've been playing it and love it. To the person with the question about approaches. Press "x" until and you can switch the length. May have to hit it a couple of time. I don't know what the term is but I know if you hit "x" it switches distance.
