I just bought this game yesterday and played on the new Team Tour feature they introduced for at least 3 hours (I'm a dork, I know, but I couldn't put the controller down). The character creation screen is great, you can create a character to look almost exactly like you, as well as buy clothing and accessories that you may own and wear. They have a few new courses, and a larger number than my previous version of Tiger Wood PGA Tour 03' (of course). This game, although immensely better on the XBOX 360, is a great game for all ages and sports games lovers all the same. It's a game you can pick up at any time and play for a half hour or for hours on end. Highly recommended for ages 10 and up, and great for a pick-up game with your friends. The controls are great and the graphics are phenomenal (The water looks very well refined and presents an amazing mirror image on any hole). If you liked any of the previous games and want to upgrade to the newest one, then $40.00 is a small price to pay for endless fun.

TW PGA Tour 07 is pretty much like every other TW PGA tour out there; customize characters, compete in PGA Tour, Team Tour (new feature), real time golf events, as well as 10 other game modes. It took me a couple days of playing, only a couple hours a day, to max out my character's stats and start being a contender for the PGA tour. For the real time golf events I had to reset my Xbox clock back to 2007 to open the calendar.

Pros: Increased difficulty makes the game as hard as it was when you first picked up the controller.
Increased wind, accuracy, drivers, irons and wood accuracy can be changed to challenge the player or provide a "real" version of someone's stats.
Create your own courses using the holes from the 18 courses available. (I made one called the Birdcage (only par 3s) and another called "Where Eagles Dare" strictly par 5s.

Personal Pro: Living in Truckee, CA which boasts 6+ golf courses in a 30 mile radius. Though none appear on the game, it is nice to play some golf when you have 4 feet of snow on the ground outside and another foot predicted to fall tonight.

Cons: PGA Tour by yourself, you end up playing a course 2-4 times to win the event.
Best event for me was at Avira, after four days in a tournament, I finished with 60 under par. Computer though, didn't record the score because I wasn't playing stroke play.
At some point, no matter how in tune you are with golf, you just need to turn it off.
No ability to change the music that plays, only turn it on and off or select certain songs in PGA Tour to play. (Aka No custom soundtrack)

The program is nice and graphics are good except the golf ball is too big. The extensive ability to customize your player is a bit long and over done. The game play is easy and the putting is way too easy, you almost have to try to miss to screw up a put. I rate this program *** out of 5 for that reason. I have another golf program called Links for the Xbox that I like better. It plays much more like real golf and is much more of a challenge so I rate it **** and believe me putting with that program takes some skill. Others have rated Tiger Woods programs with disappointment because they say there aren't that much difference between some of them but since this is the only version I have, I can't respond to that comment and can't down rate the program for that. All in all, it's a good game if you don't have Links to compare it to.

The last in the series for the original Xbox it is definitely more refined. The new game modes are inventive and extremely fun. The team aspect is a great way to deliver fresh game play every time. I wonder if any of the ladies in the game are personal friends of TW?

I hate golf. I don't like to watch it, I don't like to play it, I don't even like to hear about it. But from the first time I played a Tiger Woods PGA Tour game I've been hooked. It's game that's fun whether you're playing alone or with your 3 best friends. There are several modes of play, all of which can be played with or without friends. This includes season mode, allowing everyone to earn skill tokens and build up their character. There aren't many ways to earn skill tokens outside of season mode, but there are a couple of modes that allow you to work on your swing and personal (i.e. you as a person, not as a game character) accuracy. Overall, this is a highly addictive game, but with the multiplayer options, it can be one for the whole family.

This game is fun and challenging. You are able to tweak the UI and make it harder to beat the players if you are playing against the computer. Tons of courses and golfers. The trees could be a little taller, because you can drive over almost all of them along the fairways.

I've played all the TW games, and I feel that this game has a strong lead over the others. Team tour is awesome, and the game face is improved and cool. I bought the game a week ago and haven't been able to stop playing it. I recommend this game to any golf enthusiast!!

Love Tiger Woods - I played non-stop for a while when I got it. It is not quite what it is on PlayStation with some of the graphics and extras, but its a fantastic game!! I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a good game.

I was a huge fan of the 2005 edition. The 2007 is nearly the same thing only it doesn't play as smoothly as the 2005 edition. All of the phrases are the exact same as the 2005 edition. Overall, it is still entertaining but is not in any way original.

As a big fan of Tiger Woods PGA Tour 04, I was looking forward to playing the "newest" version of this game. Unfortunately it is so difficult that it takes the fun out of playing. Take my advice...stick with the 04 version of this game.
