Tiger Woods nabs Wayne Rooney DLC

News Xbox 360 PlayStation 3

Blockbuster exclusive.

It is one of the most bizarre cross-promotions we've seen yet.

Pre-order Tiger Woods PGA Tour Golf 13 at Blockbuster and you'll get Manchester United and England striker Wayne "stop playing me on the wing" Rooney as a downloadable add-on golfer.

You also get Arsenal's Theo "he's got potential" Walcott, Manchester City's James "I don't know my best position" Milner and Chelsea's Petr "I'm the best keeper in the world and play for the best team in the world" Cech as part of a DLC pack of four footballers.

That's the first pre-order bonus. The second features US sports stars. Ice hockey legend Jeremy Roenick, American Football Hall of Famer Marshall Faulk, basketball player Dwight Howard and boxer Sugar Ray Leonard are included.

Tiger Woods PGA Tour 13 launches at the end of March. Images of Rooney and co are below.

Is this the pre- or the post-transplant Rooney then?

And Bill Murray and/or Benny Hill, please.

This sounds like a wholly worthwhile avenue for EA to explore, not at all a complete fucking waste of time that some idiotic cunt in the marketing department dreamt up.

Oh, and Vinnie Jones would be great. He's ace with (other people's) balls, too.

True, there's not nearly enough gophers in today's games anyway.

Where's the equivalent DLC for FIFA? I want a team as follows...

GK: Woods, RB: Harrington, CB: Cink, CB: Kaymer, LB: Watson, RM: Fowler, CM: Poulter, CM: Donald, LM: McIlroy, CF: Westwood, CF: Rose.

@Golgo Exactly. If you are going to have a DLC pack, why include the most mundane and tedious of people on it, with almost no facial expression and the combined charisma and wit of something you'd find in an Andy Murray autobiography. I would definitely buy the DLC you suggested.

I'd like Kevin Costner from Tin Cup please, so I can claim to onlookers when I'm playing badly that I'm recreating the scene where he throws away the entire PGA tournament trying to get a ball over the water hazard and ends up like a million over par by the time he finally makes it but the crowd end up going more wild for him than the guy who wins.

Some hilarious comments, especially the one looking Des O'Connor and Jimmy Tarbuck involved.
