Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08

Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08 is the second game in the series to appear on the Nintendo DS. The game features touch swing controls where the player drags the stylus downwards to backswing and then back upwards again to shoot. A smooth motion leads to a more accurate shot, while the power of the shot is determined by how long the backswing is and the speed of the motion. The accuracy of the shot is determined by the angle of the swing. By sliding the stylus right or left, the ball may draw or fade although too much will lead to a hook or a slice. A more traditional tap control is also available. The player swings by pressing a button to begin a backswing. The swing meter increases until the player presses the button again to decide the power of the shot. The play now mode allows a quick match. The player can choose rules (stroke play, match play or skins), course and number of holes. Multiplayer exists for up to four players locally or online through wi-fi connection.
