Aspyr Media ships Electronic Arts' Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 2005 for Macintosh

AUSTIN, Texas -- Aspyr Media, Inc. recently announced they have shipped the Mac version of Electronic Arts' popular golf game, Tiger Woods PGA TOUR(R) 2005. The title was developed for the Mac by Aspyr Studios, Aspyr's internal development team, under license from EA.

Tiger Woods PGA TOUR(R) 2005 challenges you to take on the man who has changed golf forever -- Tiger Woods. After making a name for yourself on the Tour, tee off against legends including Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus and Ben Hogan to see how you stack up against the all-time greats.

The revolutionary new Tiger Proofing course alteration technology allows you to modify course dynamics and call out your PGA TOUR rivals by adding lengthier Tiger Tees, tighter fairways, dramatic undulations to greens, deeper bunkers, higher rough, and more. An enhanced Game Face featuring non-proportional bone scaling and texture blending creates incredibly realistic looks, right down to the bags under your eyes.

Tiger Woods PGA TOUR(R) 2005 is rated "E" for "Everyone" by the ESRB and is available for the Mac at $39.99 at www.aspyr.com.
