Date: Fri, 24 Jul 1998 14:06:14 EDT NFL Xtreme Guide By : PSXfanpres@aol.com NFL Xtreme is a Arcade/Sim that makes you really have to think. Well, we'll do the thinking for you! Nd4sped2 and I bought this awesome game, and now we will tell you the best plays, the best teams, the moves, how you do them, and more!!! I'll have were you'll find the plays under what topic in parentheses. I'll start out with the best offensive passing plays. The best offence passing play: zap (spread)- This play is effective because your teammates block all of the defenders trying to sack you, which gives you the chance to throw it to someone that's wide open. The best offence running play: sweep (full House and stack)- This running play is good because it confuses your opponent. It also gives you a good chance for a touchdown. DEFENSE The best defensive play to block someone that does a running: 3 Bump (23)- This play is effective because it covers everyone that will run. The best defensive play to block a pass: Cloud (23)- This play spreads out your team so they can guard the defender and try to block the shot. Those were my most effective plays. They should be good to you also. But it's not always the plays that are best. Next I will tell you the my best overall teams. Best Teams: 1. Broncos 2. Packers 3. Steelers 4. 49ers 5. Chargers Worst Teams: 1. Cardinals 2. Oilers 3. Vikings Note: None of the teams are that bad. But comparing them to the high teams is what makes them low. Next a will show you a move list. I will tell you how, and what each move does. Offense: Dive with ball/QB slide- square (If you have the ball, and someone is about to hit you, you may slide so you won't lose yards.) High Step/Shoulder Charge- X (To high step, you must have ALL of the defenders behind you and you must be near the touchdown area. Shoulder Charge speeds you up, and if any one is in your way, you knock them down.) Spin/Juke- circle (If you spin, you can deflect the defender that's about to hit you. A juke is a move to jump out of the way so you won't get hit.) Jump/Grab Ball- triangle (Jump up in the air to catch a ball thrown to you. To catch it, jump and try to let it fall into your hands without being hit.) Stiff Arm left- L1 (Punch the person that comes up to you from the left.) Stiff Arm Right- R1 (Punch the person that comes up to you from the right.) Turbo- L2 or R2 (Speed Past the defender or speed closer to your opponent. Hold this with other moves to make the move more powerful.) Call Audible- L2 or R2+ square, X, or circle before snap. (Call a different play before you hike the ball. Adjust the play on pause.) ADVANCED OFFENSE Power Shoulder Charge- X+ L2 (Same as Shoulder Charge but is more powerful.) Spin/Double Spin- circle+ L2 (Spin twice.) Jump Flip over the Defender- Triangle+ L2 (Flip over the defender so you won't be tackled.) Show Icons of Receivers- L1 or R1 before snap. (Have letters pop on the screen so you can change players if you'd like.) DEFENSE Dive/Wrap Tackle- Square Switch players- circle Jump Interception/Deflect Pass- Triangle (Block the ball so the opponent won't catch it. Intercept by jumping in the air.) Turbo- L1 or R1 (Speed closer to your opponent.) Swim Move- L1 or R1 Icon Switching- L1 or R1+ icon (Switch to a different defender.) Call Audible- L2 or R2+ square, X, or circle before snap. (Change plays.) ADVANCED DEFENSE Flying/Standing Clothesline Tackle- square+ L2 (Clothesline your opponent during play or late hit.) LATE HIT After you are tackled, your circle might blink. If it does, you can control to hit your opponent after he is tackled. Drill him into the turf by moving toward your opponent and tapping square, or square+ L2.
