Tiger Woods 10 gets Banff Springs DLC, already on Wii

July 23rd, 2009 No Comments   Posted in DLC, PlayStation 3, Sports, Wii, Xbox 360


New downloadable content is available for Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 today, featuring the golf course Banff Springs. If it so happens that you have the Wii version of the game (complete with Motion Plus), you don’t have to worry about buying the DLC since you already have it. The Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions of the game, however, did not include this course on the retail disc.

So, if you really want the golf course, you’ll have to dish out 600 Microsoft Points, or $7.50 on the PlayStation Network. It’s not too bad of a price, considering it’s the same price for every map, but it’s the thought that Wii owners don’t have to waste a dime for extra content because it’s already available to them.

Jimmy Fallon vs. Tiger Woods Thursday Night

June 24th, 2009 3 Comments   Posted in Casual, Console, Media, Wii

It seems that late night talk show host, Jimmy Fallon, has challenged Tiger Woods to a friendly game of Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 for the Wii. Of course, the athelete accepted and the match will go down this Thursday on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.

Sure, it will be fun to see Jimmy Fallon play Tiger Woods at his own game but it will be even more fun to just watch Tiger Woods actually playing his own game. I wonder if he’s good.

Buy certain games at Target, recieve a gift card

June 12th, 2009 1 Comment   Posted in Music, PlayStation 3, Sports, Wii, Xbox 360

Joystiq has recently gotten their hands on a flyer released by Target that clearly shows you will recieve Target Gift Cards when you purchase some of their products.

First of all, if you purchase both Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10, which comes bundled with MotionPlus, along with Grand Slam Tennis you will be greeted with a $20 gift card. Alternatively, if you purchase Guitar Hero Smash Hits for any console you will be given a $5 gift card.

Sure, it’s not much considering you have to spend upwards of $110 to get $20 back or $50 to get $5 but it is a discount of sorts.
