Ok theres the new features like the club-tuning, coaching & simultaneous on-line play and these are all good but other than that the game is basically the same as ever. No noticable improvement in graphics for me, game play exactly the same including the clumsy system of gauging distance ("so should I set this putt to 10 feet & add 50% overspin(?) or 20 feet & hit it 60% power or...."), the funny little chip shot option that feels like its been imported from an entirely different golf game, the miraculous ability to control the flight of the golf ball AFTER youve hit it. Also (I could be wrong here, maybe its just my perception) the thing that made TW08 an improvement over previous versions is that theyd made it more of a challenge to hit the ball straight (you know, like in real golf) but it seems that theyve reverted to the TW07 "every-tee-shot-predictably-straight-down-the-middle-yawn" model, even on the hard levels. I still think TW is a good game but Id like to see them develop and experiment with the actual on-course gameplay a bit instead of putting all the innovation into gimmickey aspects like club-tuning etc. Im not comparing like-for-like obviously but a sports-sim like Top-Spin tennis has got it spot on, gameplay is intuitive, simple but still challenging with all the subtleties of the real game. TW feels a bit clumsy by comparison.
