    Anyone perfect with through balls i.e. W

    1) nah, if the ball is precise then the computer will switch players to the dude who's running onto it. 2) i think left analog is the same as shift+ the d-pad, but honestly you can get a control pad or a USB adaptor for the PS controller you haven't used in years for next to nothing and...

    Anyone perfect with through balls i.e. W

    ok, i'll bite. i reckon i play awesome through balls. 1) you're wasting your time without analog 2) they are best played from striker to striker, or cam to striker between the cbs, or from striker/am to winger (if you can convince them to get up the flanks). notice that all of these balls...

    Defence Tips...

    pah! winning balls is easy - you need to jockey and position and wait til the ball is not under your opponents control then tap tackle then distribute into midfield... The slide tackle is also far more useful than 07. you can time them to perfection with practice and nail opponents while still...

    Rags to Riches ... Your FIFA 08 Cinderella

    1) look at your sponsors carefully: if they only offer 2/3 of what the highest offer per game is but they pay a 45% winning bonus you're better off with them (so long as you can win). also, league bonuses and loyalty etc are pointless if you don't think you'll win (and they're normally a...

    Rags to Riches ... Your FIFA 08 Cinderella

    when i abandoned fifa 07, my notts forest team was something like this: -------------------Ochoa (88)------------------- Richards (92)---Baloy (79)---Clichy(86)---Bale(90) -----------------Mascherano(88)----------------- ------A.Gonzalez(83)-------------Mapp(80)------...

    Insanely Hard

    fair call about making tricks easier - i would really like to see a massive difference in the ability and means used to beat players 1 on 1 - it's still a bit hit and miss taking players on with tricks (and everyone can do the same basics the same way). That's top of my list of hopes for 09 -...

    Cant save replays- game crashes

    heh, my $80 paid in cash still doesn't let me save replays. leave the guy alone. yeechon, i think the fix you have described disables a display tweak - it makes detail "disappear" in the distance which looks crap... ps/ i lost a thrilling finish to this crash 1st time... notts forest v spurs...

    Insanely Hard

    yeah, the through ball is great - i slipped an unbelievable ball from deep in the midfield through to an on-rushing striker in a game this evening... i couldn't believe how perfect it was and how realistic it felt that i duffed the 1 on 1 with the keeper... had to laugh at that.

    Insanely Hard

    yeah, this has been discussed and discussed... It takes practice - i'm halfway through my 1st season with notts forest and we're sitting pretty on 60 odd points just after xmas having beaten spurs and hammers in the cup. There are things you do the same as in 07 and there are things you do...

    Analog? I don't think so

    I did the same thing... unless the computer pushes the crosses/through balls off the 8 axii towards your players, then it's definately working in full 360... could it be your controller/settings?

    Analog? I don't think so

    i call shenanigans... I'm using a ps-one controller as a logitech device and i have analog for crossing and through balls. They allow much more precision during play but force you to learn to use them - the vague "W" through ball in 07 was a little tiresome as it was pretty much perfect 9 times...

    To all the people that are complaining about Fifa

    i just pumped spurs 3-0 with notts forest on semi-pro. You have to really dominate a game to beat a better side as they will take every chance they get while you're left fluffing everything. Things to note if your complaint stems from having trouble scoring, to shoot wide of the keeper (to...

    To all the people that are complaining about Fifa

    omg, 07 was too easy and now 08 is too hard... as it turns out you have to actually time challenges to win the ball... you have to stay on your feet... you have to beat keepers instead of just knocking the cover off the ball and watching it sail in... you need to keep your shape... you need to...
