Is the shot like the cross? I mean more than one tap when crossing the ball i highm middle and low as you know.

interesting tid bit - i will test it out. repost this in the FIFA Controls thread - might get a better response there. its not stickied, but its high up.

You guys are something else. Amazing job and well done to all contributors.

Is there a official list of controls somewhere? This talks about stuff like cancel trap and I have no idea how to do any of that stuff...I wish this guide talked more with respect on buttons to hit and how to do things rather than being more confusing.

Why isn't this stickied but every other official guide is?

I would really like to know if there is some sort of guide for the PC version? Something similar..
Thanks

Thanks for all this great stuff, but it should have been in the manual, just like it is here.

Trust me, this would've been the size of a Prima guide. There's probably a good 100+ pages with all of this stuff. I've tried to make it as accessible as possible, but still this is an extremely large amount of data. Just pasting all of the 300+ pics and chopping it into bite-sized sections for download has been about 15-20 hours of work. But it's been well worth it. I'm gonna try to keep you guys in new info anytime I find it. But it'll probably always be a large amount of stuff that's kinda strewn all over the place, as opposed to a nice neat little book.

Thanks for all the great info. Seriously awesome you took the time do put that together.

I too am wondering if you can address the "cancel" button. What exactly are you doing to cancel. For instance when tyou take coontrol of your guy and he is on "rails" so to speak, you mention cancel;ling sop he comes out of his straight ahead run. Or sometimes I run into trouble with guys just waiting for the pass when it wasn't stroing enough to get to them and they should be running back to the ball.

Thanks to all. Great stuff indeed. (thanks for making a pdf!)

Fast mirror to the "all in one" pdf: http://web.comhem.se/keso/FIFA__09_Guide.pdf
