Description
The 2008 edition of the Tiger Woods PGA series offers expansions and improvements over the previous version without major graphical or gameplay changes. There are new courses (Xbox 360/PS3: 5 new, 16 total - PS2: 6 new, 18 total) and a selection of various licensed professional golfers to choose from (21 on Xbox 360/PS3 - 23 on PS2/Wii).

The Xbox 360, PS2, PS3, and Windows versions let players import photos to give in-game characters faces based on custom images, using the Xbox Live Vision camera, PlayStation EyeToy, PlayStation Eye, or a webcam. Further customisation includes clothing, hair or eye colour, and more. Starting stats can be improved by completing challenges based on power or putting precision. They can also be increased through good performances on the PGA Tour, taking into account not only the overall score but also skill shots. Players can unlock additional golfers and spend their winnings in the shop on new equipment.

The game includes the FedExCup Championship format (a series of tournaments) with rounds of golf at Westchester Country Club, TPC Boston, Cog Hill, and East Lake. The putting preview has been improved, allowing the player to simulate the ball's path once per course, taking into account factors such as power, speed, and elevation. On Xbox 360 and PS3, shots are not performed with the analogue stick but with the 3-point timing system for start, power, and accuracy. Shot Confidence is a new feature that rates the player's performance on specific courses, with certain putts, and with certain clubs. Good performances increase confidence, which translates into experience and better performance on specific holes. Low confidence leads to reduced accuracy, a pounding heartbeat, and shaky controls on the Wii.

Multiplayer (up to 4 players) has been expanded with GamerNet, where players can create and play custom challenges, with their results posted online (Xbox 360/PS3/Windows).

On the Wii, players can shake the controller to taunt opponents with 4 different moves in order to distract them. This can be used to affect wind conditions, spin, or add audio distractions. Controls are available in 3 modes: Full Swing (Wii Remote), Sitting Swing (new, wiggle the Wii Remote), or the classic Nunchuk control for analogue play. In Full Swing, rotating the Wii Remote adds hooks and slices before shots. Also exclusive to the Wii is a mini-putt mode.
