Madden NFL 2005 - Strategy Guide (Page 08)
Below are the cheat codes, hints and help for Madden NFL 2005 - Strategy Guide (Page 08).
Skill: Pro Description: -Tackle The HB as quickly as possible -To attempt a diving tackle press Square -To sprint hold down Circle -To strip the ball press R2 Trophies: Bronze - 1000 points Silver - 1725 points Gold - 2250 points Rewards: Card #194 - 3rd Down Personal Strategy: This challenge is extremely easy. If you use the big hit stick, you'll be able to make the Staley fumble at least once which will give you even a bigger bonus. With no blockers, you should be able to hit Staley behind the line of scimmage each time. This challenge is very simple and is just as easy as the Rookie Challenge. The only difference is that Staley tries to juke a little more, but it really doesn't do anything at all. ------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------ Challenge Name: DB - Swat Ball (Pro) Team: Houston Texans Location: Houston, TX Personal Best: 830 Game Situation: Locked (Once You Win, It'll Be Unlocked) Skill: Pro Description: -Swat passes down with L1 -Use the strafe R1 to face the line of scrimmage -Go for interceptions using Triangle for higher scores -Earn more points by stopping consecutive passes Trophies: Bronze - 300 points Silver - 575 points Gold - 800 points Rewards: Card #199 - Lame Duck Personal Strategy: The DB is very good at intercepting the ball and should have no problem doing so if you get him in the right position before the ball is thrown. I usually stay to the side of any of the targets and then run in front of the target while the ball is in the air, catching the ball in stide. I don't bother using the swat button or using R1 to face the line of scrimmage. Instead of doing that, I think it is easier to time the ball from a run facing the ball with your back turned or to the side. Go for the interception each time, and once you get a couple in a row, you'll get 80 points for each following one. This is not a hard challenge to complete at all, but it may take 1-3 tries to get gold. It's exactly like the rookie challenge but it has 4 targets, which are all very easy to reach. ------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------ Challenge Name: DL - Trench Fight (Pro) Team: New York Jets Location: East Rutherford, NJ Personal Best: 9.58 seconds Game Situation: Locked (Once You Win, It'll Be Unlocked) Skill: Pro Description: -Capture the flags as quickly as possible -Spin or rip left with L1 -Spin or rip right with R1 -To Shove press Circle Trophies: Bronze - 14.00 seconds Silver - 11.75 seconds Gold - 9.75 seconds Rewards: Card #209 - Penetration Personal Strategy: This trench fight is a bit harder than the first one on Rookie, but it's still pretty easy. The first guy you encounter, juke right and then push him over. You should be running to the next guy with only 1.5 seconds on the clock. The 2nd guy is the easiest. While running, just run around to the right of him. Don't bother making contact, it's easier just to run around him. When you approach the third/fourth guy, run to the guy on the right and push him over. He falls pretty easy, especially when you are going with full momentum. While running along to hit the last guy, hit him straight on to push him over. Sometimes he doesn't fall, which is pretty lame, because it's the last guy to get thru. It's not a hard challenge though, so it shouldn't take you more than 7 tries. ------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------ Challenge Name: K - Clutch Kicking (Pro) Team: Miami Dolphins Location: Miami, FL Personal Best: 2250 Points Game Situation: Locked (Once You Win, It'll Be Unlocked) Skill: Pro Description: -Hit the target to earn points -To start and stop the power meter press X -To stop the accuracy meter press X -Pay attention to the wind direction and strength Trophies: Bronze - 900 points Silver - 1500 points Gold - 2200 points Rewards: Card #197 - Da Boot Personal Strategy: I feel that this is easier than the rookie challenge because the meter goes a bit faster. You start on the 25, which isn't a long kick at all. It's still a hard challenge because you can only miss the bulls eye (Red) twice and still come away with the gold. If wind is a factor, reset it until you get 0 mph wind. The values are as follow: Yellow = 75 points, Orange = 150 points, Red = 300 points. Basically, if you get a yellow, you should just restart. This is no benefit to kicking the ball with less power, because it takes the ball more time to get to target. This challenge may take 5 minutes or so to get gold on, because the new kicking meter is a bit slower so it's hard to get your timing back. Don't worry about watching your power, your accuracy is what matters in this drill. ------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------ Challenge Name: P - Coffin Corner Punt (Pro) Team: New Orleans Saints Location: New Orleans, LA Personal Best: 1000 points Game Situation: Locked (Once You Win, It'll Be Unlocked) Skill: Pro Description: -Aim for the targets on the field -Hit the bull's-eye for higher points -Red = 200, Orange = 100, Yellow = 50 pts. -To start and stop the power meter press X -To stop the accuracy meter press X Trophies: Bronze - 250 points Silver - 600 points Gold - 800 points Rewards: #211 - Coffin Corner Personal Strategy: This challenge is almost as easy as the rookie challenge. It's easier to go to the right corner. Have your kicker power close to the low 80s, and move the analog just a notch up for the kicking height. Make sure that you accuracy is in the 90s, and you will easily be able to master this challenge like you did on Rookie. ------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------ Challenge Name: QB - Precision Passing (Pro) Team: Seattle Seahawks Location: Seattle, WA Personal Best: 1080 points Game Situation: Locked (Once You Win, It'll Be Unlocked) Skill: Pro Description: -Pass the ball through the rings -Rings are placed based on difficulty of route -Gold = 75, Silver = 50, Bronze = 25 pts. -To snap the ball press X -To throw the ball press X, Square, Circle, L1, R1 -Hold button for a bullet pass or tap it for touch Trophies: Bronze - 500 points Silver - 750 points Gold - 1000 points Rewards: #210 - QB On Target Personal Strategy: On Play #1, move slightly to the left and throw right when your tight end is starting to cross the silver ring. Make sure that you throw a bullet. To get the gold, wait until Robinson takes two steps out and starts running up to the gold ring. Throw a bullet straight with your finger holding the analog up, and you should hit the top of the ring. Jackson is the easiest to get. Move to the left slightly, and wait until Jackson turns right next to the bronze ring. Then throw a bullet. On Play #2, let Mili run two steps to the right, and then throw a bullet. Move Hasselback a little to the right before you throw this, lining him perfectly close to the beginning of the bronze ring. Robinson runs a streak, so throw the ball with your finger pressing up on the analog. Make sure that it is a lob pass, and move Hasselback a little to the right of the pocket before you throw it when Robinson is running at the 25. For Jackson, you need to do the complete opposite. Move slightly to the left, and wait until he is on the 25. Throw a bullet and press upon the analog stick. This will complete a beautiful pass to him. On Play #3, let Mili step right in front of the ring and then throw a little bullet. This is the easiest pass of the game. For Jackson, let Jackson take three steps after he makes his post, and throw a fast bullet. Make sure that you move Hasselback a few steps (2-3) to the left so you are lined up better with the ring. For the gold, line Hasselback right on the right side of the logo on the 50 right where the hawk nose starts. Wait for Robinson to take two steps on his out, and then throw a bullet while having your finger pressed up on the analog stick. Overall, this challenge is a bit hard to get gold until you get down my tips. Then you should be able to complete it perfectly without missing a target or dropping a catch. Don't worry if this takes you 10 minutes to get gold, it is the hardest Pro Challenge. ------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------ Challenge Name: RB - Ground Attack (Pro) Team: Washington Redskins Location: Washington, D.C. Personal Best: 1960 Points Game Situation: Locked (Once You Win, It'll Be Unlocked) Skill: Pro Description: -Score as many TDs as you can -Hold down X to sprint -To spin press Circle -To stiff arm press L2 or R2 Trophies: Bronze - 750 points Silver - 1300 points Gold - 1900 points Rewards: #195 - Human Plow Personal Strategy: This challenge is a lot harder than the rookie challenge of Ground Attack, but should still be done after five tries. There are three guys to tackle you this time, and Portis seems to get tired real fast on the runs. Make sure that you run out of bounds everytime that you aren't going to score a touchdown. You need to control both Portis and the fullback by using playmaker. Once you knock one guy down, send the fullback to block the other guys while Portis runs right by the guy whos knocked down. You can't take too long though, because the guy will get back up. This challenge takes a little practice, but it won't be that hard to complete.
