You can play the game in several ways standing up, you press B and then swing the remote like a golf club, twisting it to draw or fade your shot sitting down, you press B as you flick the remote in any direction and in a more traditional fashion, you use the analog stick on the Nunchuk to swing. Very few changes have been made to how the game plays however, nearly every change makes the game play better.

The photo face mode that lets you import a picture of yourself on the PS3 and 360 is nowhere to be found. As usual, the create-a-character feature is limited only by your imagination.

You'll still improve your golfer by earning and dispersing attributes, as well as purchasing new equipment or clothing in the pro shop.

Unlike those versions, the challenges haven't been shortened significantly and get old far too quickly if you're a series veteran. Like in the 360 and PlayStation 3 versions, the Tiger challenge is arranged in a honeycomb pattern, which gives you a bit of freedom to choose the next challenge. You can play tour events, the Fed Ex Cup, and Tiger challenge. Not a whole lot has changed with the career mode. It's great to have so many real-world courses, but it's a shame they couldn't have been added to what was already there. There are still 18 of them, but many of the fantasy courses have been replaced with real locations, such as Cog Hill, TPC Boston, Westchester, Firestone, Doral, TPC Scottsdale, and East Lake. It would be 26, but Appleby, Beem, Leonard, and Campbell are MIA this year. Camilo Villegas, Morgan Pressel, Ian Poulter, Paula Creamer, and a few others bring the roster of pros up to 23. There are a healthy number of golfers and courses in the game, but it's disappointing that much of the new content came at the expense of old content. It's good that so many of Tiger 08's game modes are geared toward multiplayer because unlike EA's other recent sports game, Madden 08, Tiger Woods 08 doesn't have online play.

Here, you create a team of as many as eight players, which are eliminated one at a time with every hole lost. Elimination is the only one of these that will be new to veteran Tiger Woods players. Rounding out the game modes are five arcade games: elimination mode, battle golf, one-ball, team one-ball, and skills 18. Miniputt is nothing more than minigolf, but it's kind of fun, even if the putting grid is completely worthless on the over-the-top greens. There are five minigames: miniputt, target, T-I-G-E-R, capture, and target2target.

Traditional games include: stroke play, match play, bloodsome, greensome, skins, stableford, alternate, best ball, and four-ball. Tiger 08 has a few new game modes, though many of them have appeared on other consoles and are only 'new' for the Wii. It takes a round or two to get used to the controls, but once you do, they work well. Once again, it's a good game, but like you'd expect from a sequel that follows its predecessor by just six months, it's only a slight improvement over Tiger 07. Now, just six months later, the series is back for another go in the form of Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08.

Tiger Woods 07 for the Wii made a good first impression.
