Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 08

System: Wii Release date: 31/08/2007

A golf swing without confidence is like a boxer with a glass jaw. You can look good, you can have a pretty practice swing, but one nasty shot can send you reeling.

EA has brought the mental element of gameplay to Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 08. In addition to more responsive Wii Remote controls, the new links game sports a Shot Confidence feature. Shot Confidence uses factors from your previous rounds of golf, remembering such things as club selection, ball lie and hole type, to determine how confident you will be heading into a particular shot.

If you have shown a tendency to hit the ball well in short blasts out of the sand, you’ll be more confident heading into a sand shot with the tournament on the line. Along those same lines, if you keep hitting the ball into trees as you try to draw into a dogleg left, your confidence will be lower when faced with the same shot in the future.

Learning from your mistakes, correcting your swings and taking advantage of your strengths will benefit you greatly in your quest for the new FedEx Cup Championship, the new highlight of the PGA Tour season.

Similar to Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 07, Tiger 08 lets you swing the Wii Remote as if it were a real golf club. Using the controller’s motion sensing capabilities, the game measures the straightness of your shot, in addition to the shot power, based on how you swing the Wii Remote. 

  • Build a golfer from the ground up in the most in-depth Career mode ever. Go from an inexperienced rookie to a crafty PGA TOUR veteran on your way to becoming the world's most dominant golfer.
  • Experience the all-new FedEx Cup championship format by playing a dream round at Westchester Country Club, TPC Boston, Cog Hill and East Lake.
  • The game features some of the top PGA Tour and LPGA Tour pros, including Tiger Woods, John Daly and Vijay Singh from the PGA and Annika Sorenstam, Natalie Gulbis, Christie Kerr and Morgan Pressel from the LPGA.
