Tiger Woods Question

Hi,

Just wondering if somebody out there can tell me if the screen text in TWG06 is bigger than it is in TWG07??

I love the game but found the writing in 07 far to small and it spoilt the game.

thanks

Re: Tiger Woods Question

your right about the small text in 07,thats why I went out and bought a swing arm mount for my sony bravia.Swings out just enough to be able to read the text from about 9ft viewing distance .

Don't know about the size of the text, but the ridiculous putting system has spoilt the game for me.

whats wrong with the putting system?
I found it great! really enjoyable game, probably a bit too easy unless you have it on the highest setting.

As for text i must say i cant remember 06 but the 07 game is far better.
Sit closer to the tv or buy a 40inch LCD!

OK, you have a straight 5ft putt that's 1" uphill. If you select 5ft power it'll stop short (normally right on the lip), if you select the next power step (10ft), it'll bounce out of the cup.

That's broken in my book.

Back on topic, the text on '07 looks fine to me. There's a demo on the marketplace, try it and see.

So you select 10ft shot and hit it about 60%. In line with your foot is about 70%.

Not hard at all, if anything i would say the putting is too easy.

Totally agree, there is no consistency to it.
