Can't wait for this! Loved 2004 and this one seems like it has some nice new additions. Legends, Tiger proofing, 6 new courses.

Anyone else looking to pick this up?

Loved 2004 (especially my freakishly real, near-photo-realistic vitrual alter-ego character), but don't play it a lot and can't really think of any great reason why I need to pick up 2005. It's not like football where all the rosters change every year. Maybe that's just me...

I have 2003 and skipped 2004 because at that time I was still playing 2003 often. However I will be getting this one for sure.

Is it going to be widescreen?

Doesn't seem to be as big of a leap as 2003 --> 2004 was.

Agreed, but still looking forward to it.

Gonna pick it up as well. Really looking forward to it and also to playing it on Live.

already pre-ordered and prepaid. Im ready to finally be able to play online with the XBOX

I'll be getting it as well eventhough I'm a full fledges Links convert now. The only thing about Tiger and Live that irks me is that you can only play with one player.

What is "Tiger proofing"?

It's a feature in the game where you can change the courses to make them more difficult. You are awarded more money if you do well on more difficult courses. You can also can the color of the fairways and greens and even have designs cut into the grass. You can watch a demo here TeamXBox

Scroll down to MOVIES and check out the TigerProofing

Any word on if your created character from 2004 will be playable on 2005?

I will probably get it. I didn't play '04 as much as '03, but it had more to do with time. Love a good golf game.
