I bought a PSP exactly for games like this. I am on the go a lot and I love EA Sports games. My solution? A PSP. I have a PS2 anyway and these are comparable graphics so that's fine to me. The game itself is solid and it takes about (in my estimation) three rounds to get used to the controls. This game is just like console Tiger Woods, but portable. Great graphics, great courses, and great golf. I would highly recommend this game. I haven't checked out all the features, but my initial impressions say it's a very solid game.

This game has been enjoyed but you definitely should be a golfer to truly appreciate it. Good video quality and prompt delivery.

This review is from: Tiger Woods PGA Tour 09 (Video Game)

After playing Tiger Woods PGA 10 for nearly 5 months (yep, it's my fav PSP game) I got this game because I wanted to play new courses. There are 20- yes, 20!- courses here including 9 ** that aren't in TW 10. Plus, I found a used copy for only $5.

It was a good decision. TW 09 is quite different from TW 10 in many areas from presentation, game mechanics to graphics and commentary. Because of these differences, it feels like you're playing a "new" game. Furthermore, TW 09 is definitely more challenging than TW 10. So, if you, like me, think TW 10 is too easy- even on hard mode- try this game; I assure you you'll be challenged. Let's say finishing first in every tournament won't be a given and you won't be scoring anywhere close to -100. Putting is genuinely challenging in TW 09-- as it should be. Putting is supposed to be hard. In TW 10, putting is just too easy and almost a given regardless of where you're putting from in the green.

Also, I like the fact that there are no silly mini-games and spectators in TW 09. I also find the commentary slightly better, mostly because I prefer Sam Torrance over Scott Van Pelt. The graphics and player animation are pretty good, but not as good as in TW 10. The "Game Face" feature is more robust but the Pro Shop is quite sparse.

In conclusion, if you like to play TW PGA Golf in your PSP and you don't have the 09 version, you should seriously consider getting it.


** Courses in TW 09 that aren't in TW 10:
Aviara, Bay Hill, the K Club, the National, Sheshan, TPC Scottsdale, Wentworth, Wolf Creek and Fancourt
