Not only is it flat, but it's also inappropriate. One issue that requires immediate attention, though, is the commentary. If you want to succeed in a tournament, you better practice up because computer-controlled rivals rarely make huge mistakes. Like past PGA Tours, Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12 doesn't mess around. There's also a new Predator course in the mix. You still rub elbows with licensed professionals on real world courses such as Pebble Beach and St. And if you'd rather directly challenge a friend to regular golf, you can do so over local Bluetooth or WiFi.įacebookin' As for the remainder of Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12, much remains the same. You see your friends' portraits, which gives it a personal touch and is one of the smarter integrations of Facebook I've seen in a mobile game. This lets you contest friends to see who can drop the ball, well, closest to the pin. That's good, but far more interesting is Closest to the Pin. The latter is a series of objective-based challenges. The other big new features are Closest to the Pin, which links Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12 with your Facebook account, and Tiger's Challenge. You can also swap the shot so you purposefully go for a lower angle (which is noted by a blue meter), which is useful for getting the ball out of the rough without accidentally hitting tree branches. But the new ability to hold your finger at the bottom of the meter to charge up a power shot gives Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12 a nice little bit of arcade thrills. Tiger's+up The swipe controls are more accurate, which is always appreciated. Little errors can send a ball crashing into the rough, but you can make some pretty slick shots by purposefully sending a ball off at a slight angle and then putting a little English on it before it hits the grass. The angle of your swipe determines both speed and trajectory. To make a shot, you draw your finger down a meter and then swipe up to follow through. Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12 maintains the swipe-based swing controls. Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12 builds in last year's successful edition, adding some welcome new features as well as tightening up existing elements. While Tiger Woods may not exactly headline Electronic Arts' new golf sim, The Masters, he's still tops on this iPhone game.
