For those of you who didn't catch the Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08 demo from Electronic Arts which went online recently, prepare to change your mind. This video has one of the project's bosses Mike Cayado talking about Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08's features. While you're listening in, take the time to gawk at the sweet graphics. Check it out:



Mike mainly talks about the GamerNET, a new feature that measures every move you make in the game and allows you to upload the clip to share it with everyone online. The feature works great not only for showing off, but also for earning points that will enhance your saved game.

Also discussed was the Photo Face feature that allows you to take a snapshot of yourself or download an image online and have a created golfer put it on. The amazing thing about this is that the game generates expressions using the image data, so your face will react realistically on any given situation and not remain stone-faced, staring at nothingness all the time. Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08 is headed for the Microsoft Xbox 360, the Sony PlayStation 3, and the PC.

Yet another EA Sports game is about to hit the shelves. Before your woods get hot for that tee shot, we've got a video found on Gametrailers that takes an in-depth look at some of the new mechanics Tiger Woods PGA Tour '08 (PS3, Xbox 360, PC) will be introducing.

New to the franchise is the grid line feature when putting, something we've seen from other golf games like Pangya. Another worthy addition that looks very promising is the Player Confidence system. All your shots will be recorded, and your future performance will be affected by your previous attempts. If you've been nailing the green from a certain place on the hole, your player will be more confident in taking shots from there.

Before you drool too much, here's producer Mike Cayado walking us through what to expect from the latest Tiger Woods PGA Tour title:

EA uses GamerNet on Tiger Woods 08 - Image 1Electronic Arts' (EA) franchise title Tiger Woods PGA Tour is going to have a 2008 edition, at least that much is already a given. However, what fans don't know is that that the publisher/developer will be employing EA Sports' GamerNet.

So what is GamerNet, you ask? It's actually a working title for a system driven by user-generated content and a points system that will "set a trend" for other EA products... or at least that's how one representative from the company explained it. While the employee went on to say that this system is going to be EA's future, he did clarify that not all EA Tiburon video games will have it.

In Tiger Woods 08, GamerNet can be used by players as an uploading station for their excellent individual shots so that other online players can view it as well. The games that will carry this system will have GamerNet in their in-game interface so they can browse and load files without interrupting gameplay.

Also, the representative explained that the new system aims to encourage out-of-game community competition by having a unique online point system. This point system, on the other hand, will let players vote for their favorite uploaded user-generated content. Aside from this, Tiger Woods 08 will also feature "Photo Game Face" (working title) that will allow players to upload their photos and create photo-realistic characters.

The above mentioned features will only appear on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions of Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08. The title will be released on other platforms such as PlayStation 2 (PS2), PlayStation Portable (PSP), DS, Wii, and Games for Windows (PC).
