Tiger Woods ditches game disc for PC/Mac

While we all wait to pick up our copies of Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 on June 8, PC and Mac gamers will be able to just sit back and relax. EA Sports has announced that the computer version of the game (debuting this fall) will not be on game discs at all, instead offered as a download only.

Tiger Woods PGA TOUR Online is for anyone who loves golf and is on-the-go,” said Executive Producer Mike Taramykin. “Whether you have ten minutes on your PC in the office, or hours on your Mac at home, this is a golf game that makes time for you. With Tiger Woods PGA TOUR Online, golf lovers can satisfy their golf fix anytime.”

The game also uses a subscription based plan to play online. Different plans will be offered to accommodate those with busy schedules and just cant find the time to tee off.

With the success of downloads from music to apps, it looks like PC/Mac game developers may have found a great way to save costs and please gamers.
