More On: Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 08
Two brand new features are coming to Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 08. First off, face modeling is back in it seems as the game will let you upload photos to put on your golfer. I remember many moons ago when EA games tried this with their hockey game and it didn't turn out so hot. A few games have it now such as Rainbow Six Vegas so hopefully they've improved on the technology over the years to make it work well. The other new feature is that you can save a shot, hole, or round and upload them for others to view. So if you did hit that hole in one you can now show it to your friends rather than boring them with your details.

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., April 12, 2007 – Electronic Arts Inc., (NASDAQ: ERTS) today announced that Tiger Woods PGA TOUR® 08 will be breaking new ground with two key features.  EA SPORTS™ GamerNet* is a revolutionary game play system driven by interactive user created content.  It allows gamers to save their amazing shots, holes or rounds, and post the content online for other users to compete against.  In addition, players can now use Photo Game Face* to generate photo-realistic game characters with no artistic skill required, by uploading photos.
