EA and TIGER WOODS ROAR BACK TO
THE LINKS IN TIGER WOODS PGA TOUR 10
Experience the Thrill and
Spectacle of Tournament Golf
Electronic Arts Inc.,announced today
that the world’s #1 selling* golf video game franchise tees off for a new season
in Tiger Woods PGA TOUR® 10. Shipping to retailers on June 16, Tiger Woods PGA
TOUR 10 takes golf fans inside-the-ropes to experience the drama and emotion of
tournament golf. In addition, the U.S. Open, a USGA championship, and the USGA’s
Rules of Golf will be available in Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 10 for the first time in
franchise history.
“No player has elevated the game of
golf more than Tiger Woods and we celebrate his return with a game that
recreates the atmosphere of the PGA TOUR like never before,” said Executive
Producer Mike Taramykin. “Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 10 continues the long-standing
tradition of providing an authentic golf experience that is accessible to
skilled and casual gamers alike.”
As you hear the roar of the crowd
from the next hole over, can you handle the mounting pressure while you stand
over your tournament-winning putt? Expanded crowds surround every hole; adding
to the tension and excitement of each shot. A first for the franchise, real-time
weather will be reflected on every course, ensuring the in-game experience
matches that of the current weather conditions. Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 10 will
also feature a television broadcast style presentation, which include
instantaneous updates and a new announcer team of ESPN’s Scott Van Pelt and the
Golf Channel’s Kelly Tilghman.
Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 10 on the
Nintendo Wii will support the all-new Wii MotionPlus accessory, which brings an
authentic sports motion to your golf swing; including the ability to draw and
fade. Whether it’s opening up your clubface to take on that dogleg or tap in
that five-foot putt – Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 10 with the Wii MotionPlus is like
bringing a golf simulator to your living room.
This year’s 2009 U.S. Open course,
Bethpage State Park (Black Course), will be available on the Xbox 360,
PLAYSTATION3, PSP and Wii versions of the game. The USGA’s U.S. Open courses are
known for being the toughest test in all of golf, and in Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 10
golf fans can expect the same major championship conditions as found in the real
world.
