One other addition is a confidence tracker, which as it states, tracks your confidence with certain shots and clubs and therefore gives you an edge with shots and clubs you have done well with or used more often. During my play, I noticed a small increase in ability, but nothing that seemed game changing.

 

EA has implemented a new online system, and after fiddling around with it a little, I found it to be pretty good. For those that don't remember, EA had really fought being integrated into XBox Live and it seems they still want their own name on their online experience. In the end, I think they should let go of their control of this and let Microsoft spend the money. Overall, online play was fun and challenging. So, I could be wrong.

Basically, this game is little different from last year's version. Hey, the Photo Game Face might be worth it. Last year, I created what I thought was a near-perfect recreation of my now ex-girlfriend, in order to get her into gaming with me. She wasn't pleased. Then again, she rarely was. Still, if I had used the Photo Game Face feature, she would have no one to blame but herself. Although, I suspect she would have blamed the camera, or sued EA. This is a good game, and it tweaks last year's version enough to consider buying it. If you have 06, then this is a must buy if you are a fan.



Highs
New Photo Game Face is nice; improved graphics; new courses; Confidence Meter.

Lows
Created golfers stink initially and it is hard to improve; not much has changed drastically.

Final Verdict
This is a nice revision of last year's version. No, it is not an essential buy. If you have to be on the cutting edge, then you need to get this. If seeing yourself play on your console is important, then you'll want this. Otherwise, wait a little while and get this used or when it is discounted.
