Handbook for Respectable Videogame Play: Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2010 Edition

Los Sports Bros love sports videogames. They are really the only videogames we play besides the occasional Halo sesh. Never, and I repeat, never, are the original videogame settings for a sports videogame legitimate. The settings must be tweaked around in order for optimal fun and realistic game play. Luckily for you guys, Los Sports Bros know the right settings for every game, and we post the game settings when the game is relevant. Our first videogame Handbook: Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2010. This is a great game if played the right way, here's what you do. Most of these can be changed and saved in the game options mode:

1. Even if you think you're legit, do not set it to 'tour difficulty' mode. This mode cancels most of the things we do, but it also cancels out power boost which you need to hit a lot of greens. Power Boost also takes skill to get full power.


2. Set 'spin' off. It's ridiculous that as a player you are able to spin drives or any shot left, right, straight, back, wherever. It's stupid and unrealistic. Don't use it. Also, once you turn spin off, the view is much more realistic and more fun to play.


3. Take the 'ball trailer' off. This is a little mystical stream that follows the ball in the air and looks more retarded than Daniel Murphy does in the outfield.


4. Set the green speed to fast. Fast is just the perfect green speed. 'Very fast' goes faster than a pre-mature ejaculator would if he fucked Roddick's wife. While the green speed 'medium' goes slower than Zydrunas Illgauskas running a 200 meter dash.


5. Set the rough length to long. We're all men here.


6. Set green hardness to medium. Soft is too easy and hard makes it impossible to stick filthy iron shots.


7. Change around the pin placement every time. Even if you think you're legit by making it expert pin placement every time, you're not. That leaves no variation when you play the same course. Pin placement is fun to switch around, it changes the course completely.


8. Putt-Preview is for girls. Usually, we allow putt-preview on the first putt of the match, and after that there's no putt preview. Read the green, it's really not that hard and makes the game much more realistic and challenging. Wouldn't you rather shoot 3 under as opposed to 20 under on a given round.


9. Switch up who you us as a golfer. It's fun to try new characters, but never be Tiger unless you're playing with someone a lot worse than you, then he can be Tiger. (Anthony Kim and Rory McIlroy are definitely the most exciting players to use - and yes that is only because they are young (24 and 20 respectively))...gotta love a double parentheses.


10. Enjoy the game, it's one of the best out right now.
