A great edition of a wonderful series, it's definitely worth getting, even if players already have the 2004 edition, just for the Game Face II's added features and the new course editor.

Comes with plenty of new options but there's nothing here to make last year's version obsolete. Nevertheless, hardcore fans will definitely profit from the additions made here and gamers new to the series will find that 2005 will likely last them a long,
