August 6, 2007 - When the Wii first debuted everyone was thinking the same
thing: "Gee, I bet a golf game would really clean house on this system."
After nearly a full year with the system, however, there still hasn't been
that definitive golf game that puts everything else to shame. Nintendo opted
to go the uber-casual route with Wii Sports Golf, using true distance
tracking but not incorporating hook and slice, while Super Swing Golf
delivered true-to-life spin manipulation at the cost of a true, fluid swing.
Wii初次发表时就被认为极适合高尔夫球游戏,不过开卖近一年以来尚未有决定性的
游戏发表,Wii Sports Golf与Super Swing Golf都有其缺憾。
And then there's Tiger Woods, the series we all thought would blow away the
competition. Last year's outing (which, amazingly enough, came out less than
five months ago) suffered from glitchy swinging, a lack of precision when
dealing with hook and slice, PS2-like graphics, and some odd IR issues when
physically "grabbing" your aiming circle and manipulating it around the
course. We've had a chance to go a few rounds with Tiger Woods 08, and while
a few things have been changed for the better, it's extremely obvious that
this is only a few versions more than "last year's" effort.
还有被寄予厚望的老虎伍兹系列,但去年(事实上是不到五个月前)该系列发行的游戏
也有许多问题:挥杆问题、左曲与右曲球不够精准、PS2等级的画面,以及奇怪的IR指
向方式。我们这次有机会在"老虎伍兹08"挥杆几场过後,发现问题已有所改善,但也
发现此版本只比旧版改版好一些而已。
After putting about three hours of solid play time into Tiger Woods 08 we've
come to a very similar initial impression as we did with the last game; it
works, but it's not all there. Tiger Woods 08 uses better swing tracking, has
more in-depth tutorials, and is an all-around better game of golf than it was
last year, but it's still plagued with a few Wii-mote issues, and they really
hurt the experience.
三个小时的实测後,我们获得的第一印象与旧版极为类似:这种玩法有效,不过还不够
好。老虎伍兹08采用了更好的挥杆侦测、更深入的教学示范,而且比去年所有高尔夫游
戏更好,不过仍然有一些与Wii-mote相关的问题,而且这些问题影响了游戏感受。
For starters, the hook and slice manipulation has been changed for the better
- at least a little bit - and you'll no longer worry about hitting straight
shots only to have the ball rocket to the right in a gigantic slice,
splashing into a pond or hitting "out of bounds" sections. When you hit
straight, Tiger Woods 08 knows it, and rewards you for it. As another solid
upgrade to last year's effort we're finding that swing tempo and power are
factored into the equation far more.
对初次接触的玩家而言,左右曲球打法稍有改善,而对直球的侦测大有改善,不会有
严重左右偏斜的情形。另一个明显改变则是挥击节奏与力度的平衡。
Rather than having the player auto-swing once you begin to move (as found in
the standard control in 07) this year's effort plays more like last year's
"advanced" setting, having the club actually attempt to track you in a 1:1
manner. Along those same lines, swing speed is far more of a factor this
year, as you'll need to master not only how well you time your shots, but how
powerful the snap of your swing can deliver. It's a nice touch, and it makes
Tiger Woods 08 feel like true golf. Check out our video below, titled
"Mastery of the slice."
今年游戏表现像是去年旧版的升级版:真实球杆的表现、不同挥杆速度,而挥击力道
也有差异,让老虎伍兹08更像真实的高尔夫。
Where the game is a bit of a pain in the ass, however, is in its hook/slice
manipulation. Any golfer knows that while beginning players work to eliminate
troublesome hook/slice shots, advanced players use the manipulation of those
shots to their advantage. If a group of trees are off to the right,
accompanying a dogleg to the right far and beyond those trees, you'll need to
aim slightly left, slice hard to the right, and avoid the trees with some
seriously skill-based shots. In Tiger Woods 08 that's still the case, but
managing to get the hook/slice to register consistently can still be a bit
touchy.
但游戏仍然稍有不理想之处,在於左曲/右曲的打法。真实世界的高尔夫,左曲/右曲
打法是避开密林的好方法,不过在游戏中这种打法就显得稍微困难。
In fact, we spent a full hour of our initial playthrough simply hitting
balls, checking out what works within the swing, and what doesn't. The game
wants you to manipulate your shot based on your wrist rotation, particularly
at the beginning of your swing. The best way to do it is center your hand,
twist your wrist as if opening a door, pull the B trigger, and rip your shot,
taking careful notice that your hand continues to be tweaked to either
direction consistently throughout the shot. On the slice (both in left hand
and in right hand golfers) this is an easy task, and we have had literally no
trouble using consistent slice to our advantage on the course.
游戏中打出左右曲球的方式是取决於玩家手腕旋转,尤其是下杆一开始的角度。
最佳的的方式是如同开门一般的旋转手腕,同时按下B钮,然後挥击。要小心持续
如此挥杆很可能会扭伤。以右曲球来说相当容易,我们也能在球道上称心如意的持
续使用右曲球。
In case of the hook, however, it's a totally different story. We've tried
doing drastic arm movements, little tilts, full cranks of the arm, tilts
before hitting B, after hitting B, tilting during only our follow-through,
and just about every other possible way of interpreting the controls, and in
the end it's just harder to pull off. Not impossible, mind you, but harder.
We've gotten hook control down to about 80% effectiveness, but every once in
a while a huge twist of the wrist will do nothing, or (and this is of course
the Wii hardware getting confused by over-twisting) have had the game
interpret it as a slice instead. The bottom line is this: Tiger Woods 08 has
made it simpler to hit straight, and a breeze to manipulate and control slice
shots, but hooks are a real learning experience, and difficult to a fault in
our opinion. We've tried tons of different swing styles, we've changed the
swing difficulty from standard to advanced, and it's still a trying
experience. It's much better, but not perfect.
但左曲球就不容易打出来,无论如何扭转手臂或改变按B钮的时机,就是很难打出左
曲球来。并不是不可能,但也极为困难,我们使用80%左右的力道挥击,但是偶尔就
是不管用,或是打出右曲球来。简言之:老虎伍兹08简化了直球的打法,也让右曲球
容易控制的多,但是学习左曲球就非常困难了。在尝试过许多挥杆法之後、甚至将
挥击难度由一般改成进阶,左曲球仍然非常困难,挥杆已经大有改善,但是并不完美。
While the swing mechanic is obviously the "make or break" point in these
games, it's also important to note that from what we've played thus far Tiger
Woods is also a hit and miss throughout the rest of the game's offerings. The
issue with grabbing the aiming circle and moving it around with the
Wii-mote's IR is still there, and the graphics have seen literally no update
in our eyes since 07, but there are a few cool new additions to the game as
well.
挥击机制是游戏中明显的重要关键,其他部分让我们感觉到也是有进步与不足之处:
以Wii-mote IR抓取/移动瞄准圈的方式依然存在,而以肉眼观察,视觉效果并没有较
07版进步,但是多了一些很酷的新玩意。
Everywhere you look are more modes, more options, and refined general
gameplay. Tiger Woods 08 uses a "confidence" system across all platforms this
year, factoring your character's skill level, difficulty of the shot, and
previous success with a given situation to determine a confidence level. The
better your player's confidence, the better chance he has of nailing any
given shot.
游戏中充满了新模式、更多的选项,与更新的游戏整体表现,老虎伍兹08在全平台的
游戏中使用了"信心"系统,将你的角色的技巧等级、挥击障碍等参数化,并以预设
情境下的成功率决定信心等级,角色信心等级越佳,每一杆表现就越好。
Along with the confidence meter is a new "preview putt" system, that
essentially takes the place of the extremely simple to use system that was in
previous games which actually zoomed in, showed your line, and followed the
would-be shot directly to the cup. This makes putting more difficult, but
also more rewarding, and now that putting actually works with the Wii-mote
nicely (still a few oddities, but overall it's a better experience from what
we're seeing thus far) it makes Tiger Woods 08 a better overall greens game.
另外一项是"预览推杆"系统,取代了前作的推杆系统,这个系统让推杆更为困难,
但在Wii-mote的侦测上更为更为理想(有时候还是会出差错,不过目前为止已经很棒
了),让老虎伍兹08成为更棒的游戏。
For a look at "Hooks gone wrong," check out our video. The goal was to hook
this shot to the left, but instead a recovery shot must be made.
(左曲球出错的影片)
This year you'll actually need to go into a preview mode, line up would-be
shots, and take them, only then seeing the result. To keep players from using
this to a cheesy degree you also have a timer that goes with it. If you act
fast you can still get in about a dozen practice shots, but it's better than
the basically "auto-sink" preview system in the previous games.
(新的球道预览模式)
We're still pretty early on in Tiger Woods 08, having only briefly checked
out the mini-games and quick play modes, with the full-blown Career Mode and
multiplayer challenges still waiting, but thus far our general consensus is
that Tiger Woods 08 still falls under some of its 07 issues, and is by no
means a perfect golf game. At the same time, a few of the core changes are
for the better, as long as Wii owners understand the very serious disclaimer
that Tiger Woods 08 looks exactly like 07, falls under some of the same traps
as 07, and includes no Wi-Fi support or PS2-supported "ESPN Integration,"
which is a definite downside. Madden, Live, and FIFA all ship with full Wi-Fi
this year, and we're baffled that Tiger Woods is again getting the shaft.
Still, the core game is improved from what we can tell, so hardcore golf
fanatics still may want to keep this one in the "maybe" section of your
wishlist. We'll have a full review for Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08 as we near the
game's release, but until then be sure to check out our direct-feed video
below.
我们只初嚐了小游戏与快速模式,而生涯模式与线上模式则尚未尝试,但我们的
感受是老虎伍兹08仍有一些前作的问题,而且也不是一个完美的高尔夫游戏,但
是有些核心问题已有改善,玩家们也该了解他与前作看起来完全一样,而且仍然
没有Wi-fi或线上模式支援(其他EA今年的游戏已有支援)。但是我们仍可感受到
游戏核心已有改进,各位硬派高尔夫爱好者可以把这款游戏列入"可能购入"的名
单罗。
