Tiger Woods not a hole in one for PSP

Guest Nosher: Camloopz

I'm not much of a gamer. I was never into most of those popular "gamer" games (like Grand Theft Auto or Halo or Starcraft). However I do play my fair share of video games. I am really into the EA Sports games, especially the MLB series and Tiger Woods PGA Tour series. Yet despite how much I enjoy these games I do have a problem that I would like to share.




Attention to all PSP owners out there!

If you are interested in buying EA Sports Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2008 for PSP, be warned that there are some problems with it. When you play the tournament mode and complete the first season you'll experience glitches in the game during the second season. These glitches include the game freezing upon completing certain events like the U.S. Major Championship.

You'll also find glitches when playing smaller challenges (like the Putting Frenzy or finding yourself in the middle of a lake to start off a pitching challenge). What is quite unfortunate is that these glitches limit the re-playability of the game.

It's disappointing since I was really enjoying the game. Apparently EA's beta testers didn't play the game long enough to get through to the second season to discover the glitches. As of yet, I've heard nothing about EA Sports making any effort to fix the problem. Shame on them.

So, beware of EA Sports and the Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2008 for PSP!

Have you experienced anything like this with one your favorite video games?
