EA sent us some new screens and info on new golfers and courses set to appear in this years game:

Golfers

Ross Fisher - 2010 Europe Ryder Cup member & 7 professional wins
Dustin Johnson - 2011 British Open runner-up & 2011 Barclays winner
Graeme McDowell - 2010 U.S. Open winner & 8 professional wins

Courses

The Ocean Course at Kiawah Island (host of 2012 PGA Championship)
Crooked Stick Golf Course (host of 2012 BMW Championship)
Valhalla (hosted 2008 Ryder Cup)
Royal County Down (dating from 1889, is one of the oldest golf clubs in Ireland)
Royal Birkdale (9-time host of The Open Championship)

In all there are 22 PGA Tour Golfers, and 16 courses. If you get the Masters Collectors edition, you will also get five bonus courses including the PGA National Course, Pinehurst Resort (No. 2 Course), Oakmont, The Old White TPC, Straits Course at Whistling Straits.

Are you thinking of the Masters Collectors edition at all? What do you think about the course additions?

According to Amazon, the MCEdition is another 20 bucks. Rather steep for just 5 more courses I'd say.

Hook, line and sinker... definitely getting this now!

Actually it's $10 difference.

The regular version is $59.99, and the Master's Collector's edition is $69.99.

The Collector's edition is a good deal IMO. You don't have to worry about getting those courses when EA makes adds a plethora of DLC courses like they usually do.

Oh okay, yeah that's definitely better and worth the extra 10 dollars.

They had me at Valhalla. Been waiting for that one.

It's also worth noting Rory McIlroy and Luke Donald are both returning to the game. They aren't new to the series, but they weren't in last year's game. Those two are two of the best in the game for sure! As an Oklahoma State fan, having Fowler and now Mahan makes it tough to pass on. And the new courses are very good additions. I'll probably just spend the extra $10 to get the 5 additional courses and the green jacket ceremony. ;-)

Agreed. I'm pretty excited about Valhalla. I wasn't really planning on getting this game, but that course definitely will make me consider it. I love that course. It's a really fun course to play.
