Title: Tiger Woods 06
Post by: Listener on February 27, 2006, 12:14:44 PM
Bought this this weekend for $7 + a few traded-in games the wife and I weren't playing anymore.

The good:
Infinitely customizable
Overall gameplay is still a lot of fun
Load time, except for saving games, is lessened
Music is an amalgam of nifty jazz, techno, house, and acid-jazz tracks, all in the "ambient" end of the spectrum

The bad:
Everything runs MUCH slower, especially player creation and menu selection
Pro shop is harder to use
Saving actually takes longer for some reason
Analog putting is HARD, but makes the game that much more challenging
When first starting out, shots only go the full length advertised if they bounce, which takes a lot of adjusting
Gamebreaker mode is sometimes hard to use (but when it works, it's awesome)

Worth the $7.  I'd've paid as much as $20 for it, I think.  It's $30 in most stores now, or on gamestop.com.

What are the limitations/differences?  Are there any?  Besides the smaller screen, that is.

Somewhat related:  do they make a cable you can use to hook your PSP to a TV?  In case, like, you're at home and you want to play a PSP game on the big-screen.

I don't know what the differences are because I've never played the full console version of the game. It does have voice overs, fly by's, and the pro shop. And the putting is really difficult to judge.

There are devices to hook the PSP up to a TV but they look a little hinky.
