Hate on EA all you want, really. But that was fantastic.

Stuff like this has happened for years. In the original LHX Attack helicopter game from EA, you could land your chopper on the water.

Companies making fun of themselves is always a winner in my book. They should fix it though in the next version or that would just be lazy.

I agree. Even a behemoth like EA can pull it off. Great find subby.

I was thinking the same thing. Awesome ad! But, will this be considered blasphemy?

Gee, I can't imagine. Religious types are usually so above expressing butthurt outrage over things that are completely innocuous and insignificant.

Oh, wait...

Jesus - where's all the REAL golf nuts. Walking on water or not, that pond is still technically a water hazard. Tiger clearly grounded his club - that's a non-no in a hazard. two stroke penalty.

What, religion has an exclusive patent on miracles or something?

I'm sure magic will be just as upset, and you might catch some flak from paranormal...I don't think extraterrestrials will care though.

Holy Bajeezuz, Batman, EA's marketing department is also the programming department! Stop making ads and fix my game! Lord knows you can't do both at the same time!

Just release 09 already. And make sure you have:
- More courses (A Blu-Ray can only fit 12? Bullshiat.)
- A real course editor (Whee, deeper bunkers! Yay!)
- Putting "un-fixed" (Can you say "overly complex"?)
- A separate Tiger course (Random 18 doesn't cut it.)

JohnBigBootay: Jesus - where's all the REAL golf nuts. Walking on water or not, that pond is still technically a water hazard. Tiger clearly grounded his club - that's a non-no in a hazard. two stroke penalty.

I'm sure he'd be DQed anyway for not using regulation footwear.

No, whatever course/pond that the commercial was shot from should have it as an easter egg for just that 1 hazard.

It won't be fixed. Like all EA glitches. Remove an 08 feature, add something back from 07 or 06. Don't fix glitches. They're all always essentially the same game.

Hit didn't hit the water, he hit the lilypad. Tiger Woods makes his own fairways.

For two-player sports, I loved NHL 94 or 95. The Genesis version was what I played. Too much fun and you could score 15 goals if you got good enough. What system was 98 on?

It was on the original PS for me. I LOVED 95, but that's because I'm a Ranger fan. But I thought 98 was more fluid and had better AI and cooler fighting.

Neat.

Hope they give the guy that found the 'glitch' a free copy of 09.

Anything new in 09 to make it worthwhile updating over 08?

If Tiger was Jesus, he wouldn't have hit the ball in the water in the first place.

/ nor would he be injured
