any question about fifa 08 for xbox 360

[AsmodaiPlay]

I've now got a 360 and fifa and i have a question, whats all this about points when you try to edit a player? do you need to complete tournaments e.t.c to earn these points? and will editing players affect the commentary at all like it does on PS2?

How do you get your created players to have skills? I have 90 on his dribbling but still nothing? Any help on that?

wierd problem

ok guys, ive got xbox 360 and fifa 08.

ive noticed a couple glitches that i wanted to know if there was a fix to.

1. ONLY with Manchester Und when i take a player to the opposite side of the pitch and try to cross from anywhere near the corner of the pitch the cross indicator dosnt come up. if i cross the ball from anywhere else, the indicator comes up. i changed the setting from indicator to Name indicator and still the meter dosnt show up. to better understand the problem, the meter dosnt show up if i take the player past the goal box line even if im not in the goal box. hope the explanation helps.

2. ive noticed that some player skins are completely different. ex. Rio Ferdinand is supposed to have a dark shade but he is completely WHITE in the game. this only happens sometimes.

im getting really annoyed with the 1st problem since NONE of my crosses are accurate. anyone else notice this issue? if you need further clarification with the problem, do ask.

Ive always been a fifa fan and usually can get the hang of any new featues EA adds and im quite a pro but OMG this new one is TOTALLY different.

Ive been playing it now for about a month (had it about a year but been addicted to Oblivion) and im getting annoyed with it now. Wondered if anyone can give me any tips?

1st off how the hell do you win headers? No matter what i do i can't win headers in open play I win a about 1/10 from corners but the always go over or wide! Any tips?

2nd how do you go by defenders? When im down the wing with Ronaldo, one on one with the left back i cant go past him. Sometimes i can using the right stick to knock the ball forward but doing tricks is a nightmare.

3rd this is really a moan than anything else! What is with the goalkeepers? Ive conceded so many goals because they never win one on ones, they take an age to get up off the floor after a dive and sometimes they don't even bother to atempt a save, they are by far the worst excuse for AI ive ever seen. And the other players on your team.... At times they just run around like headless chickens and get in the way of passes to other team mates

I must say though it does feel like you've actually earned a goal when you score it. It is addictive too, usually a game that pi55es me off this much would be on eBay by now!

Safe to say this game needs some improvement. Ive played PES2008 and that is still no comparison to Fifa, PES is a shockingley bad game!

Thanks guys

I don't own this game yet, my roommate and I are thinking about buying.

Question:

I'm assuming there's a career or campaign mode. Can 2 people run 2 different teams in this mode?

Accurate scoring

Hi Rico, I'm new to Soccer gaming forum I bought my Xbox nearly 2 weeks ago and last week bought FIFA 08 and love it!
I used to have it on the PS2 before I upgraded to the Xbox.
However I'm having a few problems getting to grips with the controls of the Xbox especially shooting, as I am finding the ball either goes too high or to the left or right of the goal. Am I holding down the B button too long?

is there an easy way of sorting this out, please can you help

Also with regards to Scouting for players, I am currently trying to scout for a new striker as my current top striker Mcbride is getting old and going to retire next season. Can you recommend the best area to scout from please.

Many thanks.
