Playing sports video game tournaments

So you are the slickest Xbox 360 and PS3 NHL 10 player, and you've been putting all your rivals on ice. You're a hardcore player who likes the thrill of sports video game battles. You know how to brawl with the best of them, and now you're ready to show the video game world that when it comes to Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 NHL 10, you skate to victory every time.

 

With all the testosterone being thrown around and the unabashed smack talk you're dishing to your buds, no doubt you're ready to take on the big guns at Xbox and PS3 NHL 10. Sure, you just want to hit up the video game console, throw on your skates, head to the rink and get in the game. Who in hell wouldn't? But - and this is a big but - you need more than a cocky attitude if you want to ice your rivals at PS3 and Xbox NHL 10. Make sure you know what you're doing out there… and more importantly, make sure your trash talk doesn't exceed your abilities. Or, in simpler terms: know the game. Don't be the guy who goes in without a plan, doesn't know what he's doing, and crashes and burns.

 

Look, it's not rocket science, but it's not easy either. You need to have all the right plays for both ends of the rinks, along with a solid gameplan to attack your rival successfully. Take the body on defense, and make sure to use all the proper tactics when you have control of the puck. If you don't, you'll go down in flames at the hands of your opponent, who might come in better prepared than you.

 

So, here are a couple of quick defense tips for PS3 and Xbox NHL 10. Though your first instinct is to vigorously chase your opponent when he's in possession of the puck, this isn't always the best way to go. It could backfire in a big way. Once you lose control of the action on the ice, you'll give your opponent just the opening he needs to score a goal. So, make sure you don't skid out of control when chasing after your opponent.

 

Blocking the lanes may be unadvisable while driving on the freeway, but as a defensive measure while playing PS3 and Xbox NHL 10, it's the right idea. Just position yourself in between the player in control of the puck and your goal, and your opponent will be in a lousy position. Blocking the lanes will really botch up your opponent's plans to score a goal. And at the same time, you've made it a lot easier on yourself to achieve your own goal: deflecting your opponent's shots. So, what are you waiting for? Those tips should help you on your quest to become the best sports video gamer for NHL 10, dominating online gaming challenges and tournaments for the PS3 and Xbox 360.
