Tiger Woods PGA Tour 06 Demo
One gigabyte of data.
Four holes.
I used to own a computer with 1K of memory and you… could… do nothing with it. Okay, fair enough.
Anyway, the core golf seems pretty good. Got a triple bogey on the first hole, but an eagle on the final hole. It started to make sense quickly, then. And the analogue swinging seems a lot better than the last version of the game I played a few years ago. As it bloody well should, unless EA spend each year laughing and rolling around in piles of cash instead of actually changing their games between versions.
Still, nothing in there persuaded me to spend fifty quid on it. Fifteen, maybe, if I was desperate for some golf. (Would be twenty, but I need to be paid at least a fiver to put up with the crap EA smear all over their interfaces. While the demo has a nice, easy menu I’m sure the full game has some awfully complicated and confusing “world tour” type structure. And you probably have to say “Yes, I’m sure” eighteen times before it lets you save your game. And stuff.)
