In the game he most certainly is, having squeezed into the obligatory motion-capture suit "It's pretty tight" I've always played games, but never ever envisioned myself being in a game." Endorsing a game was an opportunity he readily accepted, although he says: "It felt awkward having my own game in the sense that I'm actually part of a game. It's all a world away from the ultra-realistic Tiger Woods PGA Tour 06, the latest incarnation of the game that Woods has lent his name to since 1999. Back in the day it was Pong, then it became Frogger and then Dig Dug, Galago, Donkey Kong, stuff like that." Sweet Spot ''I remember as a kid we played Atari 2600, then the 5200, then Nintendo and all that stuff. "Oh, I've been a gamer all my life," he says. Woods has been the dominant face of golf for so long that it's easy to forget he's only 30, and thus comfortably within the videogameplaying demographic, something he confirms by reeling off his earliest gaming memories. In reality, with his outlandish hairstyle and laidback demeanour, he seems more surfer than golfer, liberally using the word "dude" and peppering the conversation with descriptions ranging from ''pretty cool" to "really neat". In the game he appears as a sullen latex-skinned robot in a pair of high-waisted grey slacks. Given the absurdly exacting build-up, it's a surprisingly low-key entrance from a sharp-dressed and unbranded Mr Woods, who ambles in unannounced, pours himself a glass of water, sits down and introduces himself as "Tiger" through unfeasibly white teeth. Luckily, I'm shod in the Swoosh, otherwise the interview may have had to take place barefoot. Furthermore, I've been instructed to remove my Puma top for fear of offending the Nike representatives. Exclusive that is apart from at least a dozen interested parties analysing every word, each ready to blow a metaphorical whistle should the quadruple-checked questions veer off topic. It's A Muggy Monday morning in New York's Central Park -which actually features in Tiger Woods PGA Tour 06 as a fantasy course - and I've been granted an exclusive audience with the great man himself. Actually on merit Will wonders ever cease?

In short then, the best golf game currently on the PC and for once in EA Sports' history, not simply because of a lack of competition. Stupid it may be, but it's enormous fun and provides as much structure to your golfing 'career' as the standard tournament mode. Cue lots of silly period costumes, moustaches, hairstyles and an odd reluctance by the Victorian slave owners to lynch the dazzling urbanite for setting foot on their greens. Or, brilliantly, you can try the Rivals mode, in which you decide to follow Tiger Woods as he, ahem, travels back and forth through time in an effort to be the greatest golfer of all time. Take a traditional PGA career, starting as an amateur, playing in tournaments and challenges, and slowly working your way through the world rankings to take on the best Solid, entertaining and providing a decent sense of structure to a usually pretty random game. I actually know what I'm talking about So my pleas for some sort of career have been answered. About bloody time too: I didn't get this job for my sparkling good looks you know (That helped - Ed). What is new is that someone seems to have been listening to my usual rants and raves over what should be done to this series.
TrueSwing is present and correct the graphics are as shiny as ever, the create-a-golfer tool allows for the usual circus of imagined grotesques to have their day on the links of the world and the officially licensed music is, as usual, designed to annoy anyone with an actual interest in playing golf. The core of the game is pretty much as was. After all, EA Sports appears to have made a proper attempt at changing things with this latest version of the popular golfing sim, so it's only fair. The online play also did not function most of the time, and when it did, suffered from tremendous amounts of latency.And Cut And paste and find/replace 2005 with 2006.
Even achievements like playing in 5 online matches would not unlock and contrary to public expectations in this modern era of gaming, EA never rectified the problem with a simple patch. The achievement system in the game was largely broken and featured many achievements (except the one for averaging under 1.75 putts) that simply would not unlock upon completing the required task.
