Tiger Woods 2009 is the latest offering from EA, which has been consistently delivering the goods when it comes to sports gaming franchises. And as Tiger Woods PGA Tour 09 will soon arrive, expect more of what this hit golf game has to offer. This series has paved the way for golf gaming standards. As an improvement from previous games, developers took the time out to make significant changes in terms of gameplay and spice up the golfing experience for old and new players alike.

In Tiger Woods 09, EA takes a leap from previous games as it aims to combine two key elements. First, it aims to create the most realistic golf game as possible. Basing on actual game elements and concepts, developers have infused that into the game to create a more significant impact on how this game is played.

To those of you who do not possess hardcore golfing skills but are willing to learn more about the sport, Tiger Woods 2009 offers a venue to explore and enjoy the sport at the same time. Hence, this game is not just isolated to the skilled and pro golf gamers but is also suitable for all skill levels.

In terms of players' performance, the following new features will allow you to adjust your approach and perspective in the game: dynamic attribute system, rewind and club-tuning feature. Hence, as your attribute points rises or dips, it will also be reflected in your performance in the field.

Having to look into these certain areas will enable you to evaluate every part of your game and understand where your success (or failure) lies.

There is also a new coach feature that is available in Tiger Woods 09 so you can get valuable feedback and gauge your skills. If Haney have managed to make a golfing champ out of Tiger Woods, then he might be the person to turn to for better golfing skills.
