Electronic Arts Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2004

Another year, another licensed EA golf title. . .

Strengths: PGA and player licenses, solid graphics, lots of customization features, multiplayer support

Weaknesses: Too easy once you get into it, dated pop tunes, 2 discs, no online support, limited humor

Summary: EA's Tiger Woods 2004 PGA Tour tries to strike a balance between arcade and simulation games, but the results are mostly positive this time out.

If you're looking at golf games for Gamecube, you don't have as many choices as on PS2 and Xbox. You can't have the humor of the latest Outlaw or Hot Shots game, but EA does a reasonable job of a straight forward golf title with 2004's PGA Tour.

Unfortunately, you don't get anything new or innovative in the process, and the 2004 model actually spans two Gamecube discs, meaning you'll be switching between the two periodically.

EA's 2004 PGA Tour is a decent enough golf game. Unfortunately, you don't have many golf options the Nintendo's system. If you like humor, go with Mario Golf vs. EA's more simulation-oriented PGA Tour.

TIger Woods PGA Tour 2004

Strengths: good graphic, good control

Weaknesses: it's a 2004 version, very hard to find

Summary: Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2004 is a good game for Gamecube. If you can still find one in the market, it's well worth the money. The control is great and the graphic is EXCELLENT for a 2004 game!! This game is easy for a new gamer to pick up and it gets harder as you play more which is perfect for people who wants more challenge to the gameplay.

overall, recommended!

Great game with tons of new features

Strengths: Tons of new features, including the highly customizable "game face" feature

Weaknesses: Soundtrack can be annoying, not much graphical improvements

Summary: Tiger Woods 2004 is a great evolution for EAs Tiger Woods series. Slowly it has started to become a true series of its own and it really amps up here.

One of the coolest things in TG04 is the new game face feature. Basically it is a create a golfer mode, but you can really customize the apperance. You can facial morph, add facial hair and everything. You can even try to literaly put yourself in the game. It makes it really immersive.

Along with that you also get 19 courses to play on, which is a ton and over 30 golfers to use not counting ones you created. You get game modes such as the PGA Tour, skins, strokes and simple matches.

The graphics remain relaticvely the same which is a little disappointing, but all the efforts went to other areas this year. Also I found the soundtrack to be to current pop centric and it will not age well, and everyone may not be fans of all genres present. Especially in a golf game, some tracks seem out of place.

All in all though Tiger Woods 04 is a solid golf game and a great evolution in the series. The game face mode adds a lot this year.

Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2004 GameCube

Strengths: Gameplay, Options, Choice Courses

Weaknesses: Sometimes the game limits your club selections

Summary: EA Sports Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2004 GameCube is an addictively fun golf simulation. The game allows you to customize the looks of your golfer and has a whopping 19 golf courses to choose from. The game also has a ton of upgrade options in equipment and clothing which makes you want to continue playing.

Obviously there's no online play since its on the Gamecube, but the game is also fun to play with up to 4 players on the system. This is a really fun golf simulation which is highly recommended.
