Game Review: Tiger Woods 09

What happens: The annual golf giant gets a polish. Or, in the case of the Wii version, a complete overhaul with some new games like keepy-uppy with a club or Ball Battle, where you both fight to change the ball's flight in mid-air.
What's good about it? There are five new courses - including Wentworth's West Course - and the Wii version finally catches up with the rest by adding online play. Basically, it's just a better game than last year. Albeit, only slightly on the 360 and PS3.
What's bad about it? The 360 and PS3 versions look fantastic, but they don't have the Golf Party games the Wii has. But the Wii suffers graphically simply due to it being not as powerful a machine.
Verdict: It seems strange to review the Wii version alongside the others - golf is such a radically different gaming experience on Nintendo's console. Even more than with other games. They're all good, but if you've got a choice, opt for Wii.
