Tiger is not on the general covers of the game, but will only be on the collectors edition of the PS3 version.

They should do a 4 year rotation of the majors for new Tiger games from now on. Cover background could include the previous year winner too if they wanted.

Tiger Woods PGA Tour 13: U.S. Open, etc.

At least that's what I'd do if I were EA.

I actually learned something today; your back-swing means a great deal. In "real life" golf I can't do a full back swing because I lose control of the club head and I spray the ball all over the place, so I have to only go back to about 80%, but in the game you have to be consistent with your swing and have to have a full swing to get full power!

Just turn your hips quicker on the downswing and you'll get that power needed for extra distance.

The 18 hole flyover looks insane. The fact that they actually did a laser scan of the course lets you know that it will be accurate. I also watched a clip online where Jim Nantz talks about how the came captures how hilly the course actually is and how it captures some of the other nuances of the course. I'm looking forward to Nantz being "in the game" as well. Hopefully this will have a slightly bigger audio library than the last time I bought TW (maybe four years ago) because it seemed like it only had 15-20 phrases, which can get tiresome after 65-70 shots per round.

Anyone see The Masters commercial during the NC game last night? Anyone else find it ironic that "Augusta" is apparently a black man?
