Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08 is part of the Tiger Woods PGA series , which introduces new features and improvements without major changes to graphics or gameplay. There are new courses, including five on Xbox 360/PS3 and six on PS2/Wii, as well as licensed professional golf players to choose from.
The game allows players to customize their characters with photos, clothing, hair color, and other options using the Wii remote's camera capabilities. Players can also improve their statistics by completing challenges or performing well in tournaments, unlocking new golfers and equipment.
The gameplay includes the FedExCup championship format, which features rounds at Westchester Country Club, TPC Boston, Cog Hill, and East Lake. The putt preview has been improved to simulate the ball's path, taking into account factors like power and speed. Players can also use a new feature called Shot Confidence, which tracks performance on specific courses and puts.
The multiplayer mode has been expanded with GamerNet, allowing players to create and play custom challenges with their scores posted online. On the Wii, players can use motion controls to taunt opponents, adding a new level of interaction to the game.
