[. . . ] X08-40997 m Safety Information About Photosensitive Seizures A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed to certain visual images, including flashing lights or patterns that may appear in video games. Even people who have no history of seizures or epilepsy may have an undiagnosed condition that can cause these "photosensitive epileptic seizures" while watching video games. These seizures may have a variety of symptoms, including lightheadedness, altered vision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of arms or legs, disorientation, confusion, or momentary loss of awareness. Seizures may also cause loss of consciousness or convulsions that can lead to injury from falling down or striking nearby objects. [. . . ] It's likely the receivers will run crossing routes designed to confuse the defensive backs and linebackers. Remember ­ waving bye-bye is always polite when you blow by the defense. When controlling the ball carrier, the following moves are available: Spin: Press B to leave tacklers grasping air. Turbo: Press A to unleash a burst of speed. Stiff arm: Press Y to keep the tackler at arm's length. Dive: Press Black to lunge ahead for extra yardage. Juke: Pull either trigger to sidestep tacklers. Lateral: Press White to toss the ball to a teammate. Hurdle: Move the right thumbstick up to jump over a player. Showboat: Move the right thumbstick down/right/left to show off. Shoulder charge: Press X to deliver a hit to a would-be tackler. COACH'S TIP Press A for turbo multiple times on the same play, but the combined presses cannot exceed one second. For example, you can do two half-second turbo boosts on a single play. Busting a Move You're going to love the way players respond to your commands. The instant you hit the button, your player reacts. This is especially obvious when you are running the ball and all the more reason to bust out some special moves. 16 17 Pausing a Game When playing a game, you can call time outs when you need them. In addition, you can use the Paused Game menu to see replays, set gameplay options, adjust camera views, see the box score, change audibles and hot routes, make substitutions, and save or quit the game. Press START to open the Paused Game menu. Note: Each team is allowed three time outs per half and two during overtime periods. Scoreboard Of course, you need to know the score, how much time remains in your game, and how many time outs you have remaining. Here's a look at the items displayed on NFL Fever's scoreboard: Time Remaining in Quarter Play Clock Quarter Down & Yards to Go Field Position Points Time Outs Remaining Box Score: The box score is available through the Paused Game menu; it gives you a complete breakdown of yardage gains and losses, penalties, scores, turnovers, and more. Use it to analyze your strengths and weaknesses during a game -- and see how you stack up against your opponent. The Paused Game menu puts you in control. Try not to abuse it. 18 19 Practice All play and no work could make your team a playoff wannabe.
