Tiger Woods PGA Tour 13 is a golfing simulation video game in the PGA Tour series published by Electronic Arts.[1] It was released in North America on March 27, 2012, in Australia on March 29, 2012 and in Europe on March 30, 2012[2] for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. This is the first version of the game since 2006 not to be released on the Wii.[3] EA has sunsetted the servers which means the courses are no longer available for download.

Game Modes

Tiger Woods PGA Tour 13 features a game mode called "Legacy Challenge," where players control Tiger Woods through various points of his life.[4]

Features

Tiger Woods PGA Tour 13 used to allow players to team up with friends in an Online Country Club or to create their own. The Country Club allowed members to earn Status Points and Coins that can be used to play rounds on a downloadable course or to unlock Boost Pin packs for their golfer. The Country Club web site required to provide this functionality was purposefully shut down by EA to encourage upgrade to Tiger Woods PGA Tour 14 and is no longer available.

The Online Country Club featured stat breakdowns to allow members to compare themselves to other members. The Country Club also offered a tournament creation feature for members to compete for the title of Club Champion. [5]
