EA Sports: Tiger Woods PGA Tour '09
Tiger Woods PGA Tour 09 is the latest golfing video game in the Tiger Woods PGA Tour series from Electronic Arts. It is scheduled to be released in North America on August 26, 2008 for the Xbox 360, PS3, PS2, Wii, and PSP.
EA has gone back do the drawing board with Tiger Woods PGA Tour 09 for Wii and the end result is a game of golf that feels both much more tailored to the Big N's platform and more polished than it ever has before. You will notice this newfound presentational finesse from the moment the game boots complete with a new interface overhauled with pointer-ready menus, and even better, enhanced in-game graphics. And when you pick up the remote to drive the ball, you're going to see Tiger's swing move at a one-to-one ratio with your own -- finally.
While EA Redwood Shores handled previous iterations of PGA Tour on Wii, Florida-based Tiburon took over duties for 09, erecting a 30-man team dedicated to the Nintendo version. "We decided to move development over to Tiburon mainly because the 360 and PS3 versions of the game are made here," explains Greg Rinaldi, development manager, Tiburon. "It's really just one big Tiger team now. One big family, you could say. Although the Wii team is kind of split off a little bit. We do share a little bit with the other guys, but we're pretty much separate because we want to treat the Wii title as its own thing. It's got its own set of plusses and challenges."
