Tiger Woods hits the course again

EA Sports released Tiger Woods PGA Tour 07 and the game is available for a variety of systems. It's getting pretty hard for EA Sports to one-up itself with this came when it comes to things other than graphics, but the new features in this year's version should prove to be a significant change from the past years. Depending on the version, Tiger Woods will look and act more like his real-life counterpart. Specifically, the Xbox 360 version has the biggest feature changes and additions, much like the Xbox 360 versions of other EA Sports games that have come out this year. It's a bit much to detail to go through version by version, so you'll want to go to http://www.easports.com/tigerwoods07 and look for the system you want the game information on to see the specific features for that console. Tiger Woods PGA Tour 07 is available for $39.99 USD or $49.99 CAD for Playstation 2 and PSP, $39.99 USD or $44.99 CAD for Xbox and will be shipping for Xbox 360 on October 17^th for $59.99 USD or $69.99 CAD.
