Approach shots allow you to feel them out for distance, letting you put a little touch on the ball just as you would in real life. Drives have real weight to them so that you often find yourself standing back and admiring the ball in flight. Angle the remote even slightly, and the club face moves with it, letting you manually hit fades and draws with relative ease (or slice, with relative annoyance at your incompetence). As in both last year's game and its predecessor, the Wii MotionPlus-enhanced swing mechanics are stellar. So deadly.Įven with the glitz of the Masters, controls are the standout feature of the Wii version of Tiger Woods 12. Fall behind by a single stroke on even one round, and it's back to the drawing board.
It sees you playing as the great one during each of his four Masters victories, with the goal of keeping pace with every round. Tiger at the Masters is the other main Masters-related game. This can be extremely hard in spots, because you're called upon to make a couple of unbelievable approach shots to within a few feet from the pin and do things like finish a run of seven grueling holes at four under par. Each challenge can be beaten by getting close to the pro's achievement or mastered by matching or bettering it. These range from back in 1935 all the way to 2010 and include a wide selection of memorable moments such as Jack Nicklaus' eagle and two birdies in 1986, an Arnold Palmer eagle in 1958, and Tiger Woods' incredible seven birdies in a row in 2005.

This isn't so much a Tiger and PGA game as it is a Masters game, since golf's biggest star and its biggest professional organization take a backseat to the annual tournament hosted by Augusta National Golf Club. What you notice when firing up Tiger Woods 12 for the first time is how much the game has been reskinned to take advantage of its Masters theme. Set to tee off thanks to mostly great caddie advice on your shots. The new game also refashions everything around trying to earn an illustrious green jacket at the famous Masters tournament, which lends the proceedings a gravitas that golf fans can't help but appreciate. This year's sequel builds on the outstanding Wii remote controls from the last two years, which show the MotionPlus attachment at its best, making for lifelike drives for show and putts for dough. Even though the series embraces the Move motion controller in its PlayStation 3 edition this year, superior controls in the Wii version of the game still make it the best way to play video game golf. Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12: The Masters remains the top golf sim for virtual swingers.
