Controls ------------------------------------------------------------------ The controls in Fight Night 2004 are very easy to get familiarized with after a few games. Here I have listed all the controls in the game. ------------- Menu Controls ------------- Highlight Menu Item D-Button (up/down) Cycle Choices/Move Sliders D-Button (left/right) Select/Go to next screen X Return to Previous Screen Triangle ------------- In The Ring Controls ------------- Footwork Around the Right Left Analog Total Punch Control Right Analog Signature Punch X Button Illegal Punch Circle Taunt Triangle Taunt Square L1 Block R1 Lean/Body Punch/Signature Punch Modifer/Illegal Blow Meter Total Punch Control: Total punch control is an innovative system that gives you total control of your fists in the ring. By using the analog sticks, you can intuitively mimic the motion of a boxer's fist to throw any type of punch from any angle in combination. Dissect your opponent's defense using combinations, feints, and counterpunches all via the all-new Total Punch Control System. How It Works: The right analog stick controls your fists and is used to throw punches. In combination with the R1 button, you can now use your fists to block incoming punches. ------------------------------------------------------------------ |Punches: How: | ------------------------------------------------------------------ Straight Right/Right Jab Right Analog 45 Degrees to the Right ------------------------------------------------------------------ Right Hook Start out with the analog to the far right. Then curl the analog up to a 90 degree angle. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Right Uppercut Start out with the analog to the far bottom right. For example, a 45 degree angle from the bottom right. Then rotate the analog counter clockwise to the 90 degree angle mark. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Straight Left/Left Jab Right Analog 45 Degrees to the Left ------------------------------------------------------------------ Left Hook Start out with the analog to the far left. Then curl the analog up to a 90 degree angle. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Left Uppercut Start out with the analog to the far bottom left. For example, a 45 degree angle from the bottom left. Then rotate the analog counter clockwise to the 90 degree angle mark. Movement Around The Ring: The left analog stick controls your movement. Press and hold the L1 button to plant your feet and take control of your upper-body movement with the left analog stick. Bob, weave, and lean out of the way of punches or use upper body movement to set up your own devasting attacks. ------------------------------------------------------------------ 4.

The Basics ------------------------------------------------------------------ Here are all the basics of the game you should know before playing. ------------- Inside The Ropes ------------- Ladies and Gentlemen, it's fight night. Pick apart your opponent with surgical precesion because swinging wildy won't win you any titles. Protect yourself at all times as one solid punch can put you on the canvas. ------------- Knockdown ------------- When a fighter gets knocked down, the referee begins the 10 count. To pick yourself up from the canvas you must clear your vision by aligning the referee images into one clear image. The left analog stick and right analog stick each control one image. A third image remains stationary in the middle of the screen, as you move the left and right analog sticks to line up all the images in the center. EA Sports Tip: To get up from a knockdown, pick a single part of the referee (like the logo on his shirt) and focus on it. This makes clearing your vision a lot easier. ------------- End Of Fight ------------- If the fight goes the distance without a knockout, the judges tally the final scores and the winner is announced. After seeing the judge's cards, the Punch Stats screen then appears, displaying the final punch totals for the bout. ------------- Penalties/Stoppages ------------- Watch the low blows and other cheap shots. If caught, you'll get away with a warning the first time and then penalized one point off your score in the round for each following infraction that is caught by the ref. Rack up too many penalties and he'll disqualify you. ------------- Tips and Hints ------------- To work your way up the ranks, you need to use your head. use these tips to stay a step ahead of the competition. ------------- Offense ------------- -Counter punch your opponent after blocking or avoiding his punches. A counter punch is often the most effective punch. -Throw your punches wisely. A non-stop barrage of punches drains your energy and makes you less powerful. -If you feel you are losing when exchanging punches - back off! Regain your energy and health then go at it again. -Mix up your punches and you will land more of them. Alternate between head and body shots, and left- and right-handed punches. -Punches to the head do more immediate damage but body punches tire your opponent out and slow him down in the long run. Use both to be successful. -Try to corner your opponent from a knockdown, then pummel him as he falls to the mat - that will make it tough for him to get up. ------------- Defense ------------- -Press and hold the R1 button and move the right analog stick to parry incoming punches and create opportunities to counterpunch. -Keep your guard up and protect yourself at all times. The best offense is a good defense. -A moving target is the hardest to hit. Use your footwork to avoid punches and to set up your own chances to score. -Blocking and avoiding your opponenet's unches will tire him out and make him more vulnerable. If you lean and make your opponent's miss, you will more easily tire him out, then come back! ------------- Game Paused Menu ------------- Press the START button during gameplay to access the Game Paused Menu. From the Game Pause Menu, you can change your options, review punch stats, watch replays, or throw in the towel. ------------------------------------------------------------------ 6. Career Mode ------------------------------------------------------------------ Following this guide, you will be able to walk through career mode without any problem. Here I will explain every aspect of the career mode and tell you everything that you can do in career mode. Be patient because I am filling this out while I am doing Career Mode myself. Also note, that this is exactly what happened during my career. I used a created player and I am in the Heavyweight Division Your career may be a BIT different if you don't do exactly what I did. Nonetheless, this should help out a lot for your career! Goodluck! Go from chump to champ in Career Mode. Rise to the top by powering your way up the rankings.

Your goal is to improve your fighter's ranking by racking up victories. After a few wins, the venues get bigger and the purse size begins to increase. With a little luck and a lot of skill, you'll get a shot at the title. ------------- Fight Schedule ------------- Manage your career by choosing and scheduling fights. Depending on your win-loss record and ranking, you can choose from a variety of opponents. Pick your opponent wisely by checking out potential match-ups because who you fight affects your chance to win a title. ------------- Training Camp ------------- Once you schedule to fight, you have the opportunity to improve your ratings in training camp. Pounding the heavy bag increases power and speed. Sparring improves your stamina and agility ratings. Attacking the Combo Dummy increases your chin and body ratings.

Customize your ring entrance by purchasing pyrotechnics and personal entrance music, as well as choosing a ring girl to join your entourage.

Before the fight, make sure you hit the training. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Heavy Bag ------------------------------------------------------------------ Hit the hevy bag and make it swing from side to side. The further the bag swings after each punch the more points your score. Keep the bag swinging in the max swing range to receive 2x, 3x and 4x bonus scores. Hints -Don't just throw punches. Use rhythm and timing to make the bag swing higher. -When the bag is moving left, hit it with right hand punches. When the bag is moving right, hit it with left hand punches. Object: Score 10,000 points and increase your POWER and SPEED ratings. My Personal Strategy: The heavy bag is very easy to get use to after a few tries. If you aren't getting close to the 10,000 points mark, just press start and quit before. First swing the bag to the left with a hook shot which will move the bag a bit. When it swings back towards you, hit the bag right when it is crossing your chest. If you hit it right then, it will hit the bag perfectly and add a lot more momentum to the bag. Keep repeating this until you get 10,000 points. Many feel that it is hard to do with the default configuration, so for a much easier time, use configuration #4. If you have any other questions, feel free to email me.

Rank Opponents Rounds Purse 45 Elden Eastman 6 $3,800 ------------------------------------------------------------------ I decided to battle Elden Eastman due to him being rank 45. Before the fight, make sure you hit the training. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Sparring ------------------------------------------------------------------ Out-box the sparring partner by using your leaning, blocking, and punching skills. Blocking and avoiding your opponents punches will score more points than simply hitting him. Hints: -Try to block or lean away from the sparring partners punches. -Hit him back with counterpunches and combinations Object: Score 10,000 points and increase your STAMINA and AGILITY ratings. My Personal Strategy: This is by far, a much easier training section than the heavy bag. You will recieve the most points by countering your opponent's punches. If you find that too hard, just do simple jab combinations which will easily rack up your score. Also, if you are dying for some points, use your special punch button to get 250 points. Though this isn't really wise to do because you can get a lot more points by simply jabbing and blocking, it can get 250 points fast if the time is winding down. This usually works even when your opponent is blocking because most likely you will hit him on the top of his head. Don't get discourage if you aren't blocking all of his hits, because even though you'll lose 100 points for a miss block, you'll get 250 points for a clean hit. This means that you will still be benefiting if you decide just to have a slugfest. Personally, I don't think this training is hard at all, and you should be able to get 10,000 points on your first try.

Before the fight, make sure you hit the training. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Combo Dummy ------------------------------------------------------------------ Follow the combinations displayed on the combo dummy by hitting the different areas in the right order. As the combinations get longer the score for each punch increases. Hints: -Left punches hit the right side of the dummy and right punches hit the left side of the dummy. -Straight punches are the fastest punches to throw. -Hold L1 to throw punches to the combo dummys body. Object: Score 10,000 points and increase your CHIN and BODY ratings. Personal Strategy: Don't get me wrong, I did only get a 9 on this my first try I did it but then it got a lot easier. The combinations aren't hard to do because usually they are just basic jabs with a body shot. Remember, when you are going to do a body shot make sure you hold down L1. Also, don't feel rushed when doing this because you have plenty of time to get all the points that you need. Once you are done, I put my attributes 50/50 for chin and body. This strategy is a bit hard to explain because it is quite self-explanatory. If you have any other questions though, feel free to e-mail me.

Object: Score 10,000 points and increase your HEART and CUTS ratings. Personal Strategy: On accident, I hit auto train on target mitts and it only gave me four rating points. I started a new boxer and practiced on another name by hitting start right before the training was over, and I mastered the Target Mitts. Though it may seem hard at the beginning due to the trainer holding his gloves in different positions, I feel it is very easy. The hardest part of the target mitts is the fact that you have to remember to always hit with the opposite hand. So if the glove is lined up on the right side of the screen, make sure you use the left punch button to hit the mit. Again, this is very self-explanatory because the trainer tells you exactly where to hit. If you have any other questions though, feel free to e-mail me. Because I did auto-train on accident, I didn't get to add that many more attributes, so I split up the heart/cuts at 2 points each.

Though I could have gotten a lot more money in the other fight, I wanted the experience that I will get from this match. Before the fight, make sure you hit the training. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Heavy Bag ------------------------------------------------------------------ Hit the hevy bag and make it swing from side to side. The further the bag swings after each punch the more points your score. Keep the bag swinging in the max swing range to receive 2x, 3x and 4x bonus scores. Hints -Don't just throw punches. Use rhythm and timing to make the bag swing higher. -When the bag is moving left, hit it with right hand punches. When the bag is moving right, hit it with left hand punches. Object: Score 20,000 points and increase your POWER and SPEED ratings. My Personal Strategy: The heavy bag is very easy to get use to after a few tries. If you aren't getting close to the 20,000 points mark, just press start and quit before. First swing the bag to the left with a hook shot which will move the bag a bit. When it swings back towards you, hit the bag right when it is crossing your chest. If you hit it right then, it will hit the bag perfectly and add a lot more momentum to the bag. Make sure to take advantage of the multipliers because on each swing you should be getting anywhere from 350-500 points. If you aren't getting this much, you may be in some trouble. If you use controller configuration 4, this will be a breeze like before. I decided to add my power by 10, and my speed by only 5. I feel that it is necessary to have a lot of power behind my punch. My Score: 38,702 Rating Points: 15 Attribute: Before After Power: 55 65 Speed: 35 40 Agility: 46 46 Stamina: 47 47 Chin: 43 43 Body: 43 43 Heart: 32 32 Cuts: 32 32 ------------------------------------------------------------------ After the fight, I unlocked the following: -Shayla Outfit 3 -Music 1 I'm not exactly sure if this will happen for everyone but I won the match with a KO.

The crowd at Victory Hall comes to see some serious action and the competition won't disappoint. Rank Opponents Rounds Purse 40 Drew Simms 8 $13,500 ------------------------------------------------------------------ I decided to fight Walt Williams, which is a bit weird because I'm fighting someone who is a lower rank than my last opponent. I won my match before too, which puzzles me. Before the fight, make sure you hit the training. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Sparring ------------------------------------------------------------------ Out-box the sparring partner by using your leaning, blocking, and punching skills. Blocking and avoiding your opponents punches will score more points than simply hitting him. Hints: -Try to block or lean away from the sparring partners punches. -Hit him back with counterpunches and combinations Object: Score 20,000 points and increase your STAMINA and AGILITY ratings. My Personal Strategy: Unlike your first training when you could be in a slober knocker without any countering, this time you'll have to actually box for real to get your 20,000 points. First off, I highly suggest that all you do is throw left jabs at your opponent. If you keep hitting him with left jabs, you'll get 3x combos each time, which will get you about 800 points. He will then throw a punch at you, and then do the jabs again. If this doesn't work, then make sure you counter his punches and then hit him with your jabs. Uppercuts work when he is blocking his face from an incoming punch, but with only a minute and thirty seconds to wrap up 20,000 points, I feel jabs are the most effective way. My Score: 21,200 Rating Points: 15 Attribute: Before After Power: 65 65 Speed: 40 40 Agility: 46 54 Stamina: 47 54 Chin: 43 43 Body: 43 43 Heart: 32 32 Cuts: 32 32 ------------------------------------------------------------------ After the fight, I unlocked the following: -Shayla Outfit 3 -Music 1 I decided that this is too repetitive.

Training Help ------------------------------------------------------------------ Training is essential if you want to be the champion. Here I have put my personal strategies on all the four training missions. If you have any additional questions, feel free to email me. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Heavy Bag ------------------------------------------------------------------ Hit the hevy bag and make it swing from side to side. The further the bag swings after each punch the more points your score. Keep the bag swinging in the max swing range to receive 2x, 3x and 4x bonus scores. Hints -Don't just throw punches. Use rhythm and timing to make the bag swing higher. -When the bag is moving left, hit it with right hand punches. When the bag is moving right, hit it with left hand punches. Object: Score 20,000 points and increase your POWER and SPEED ratings. My Personal Strategy: The heavy bag is very easy to get use to after a few tries. If you aren't getting close to the 20,000 points mark, just press start and quit before. First swing the bag to the left with a hook shot which will move the bag a bit. When it swings back towards you, hit the bag right when it is crossing your chest. If you hit it right then, it will hit the bag perfectly and add a lot more momentum to the bag. Make sure to take advantage of the multipliers because on each swing you should be getting anywhere from 350-500 points. If you aren't getting this much, you may be in some trouble. If you use controller configuration 4, this will be a breeze like before. I decided to add my power by 10, and my speed by only 5. I feel that it is necessary to have a lot of power behind my punch. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Sparring ------------------------------------------------------------------ Out-box the sparring partner by using your leaning, blocking, and punching skills. Blocking and avoiding your opponents punches will score more points than simply hitting him. Hints: -Try to block or lean away from the sparring partners punches. -Hit him back with counterpunches and combinations Object: Score 20,000 points and increase your STAMINA and AGILITY ratings. My Personal Strategy: Sparring is by far the easiest training mode to fully complete. The easiest way to get the maximum amount of points is by using multiple body jabs. Usually, if you just hold L1 and throw left jabs you can pull off combinations. It will go from 200, 250, 300, 350, 450. In one combination, you can get close to 1,500 points. Also, make sure that you always have your hand next to the block button. Blocking your opponent and then hitting him will gain you close to 1,000 points. Sparring shouldn't be hard at all, but don't just wait to block his punches. If you do this, you will waste too much time and won't have enough time to rack up your score. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Combo Dummy ------------------------------------------------------------------ Follow the combinations displayed on the combo dummy by hitting the different areas in the right order. As the combinations get longer the score for each punch increases. Hints: -Left punches hit the right side of the dummy and right punches hit the left side of the dummy. -Straight punches are the fastest punches to throw. -Hold L1 to throw punches to the combo dummys body. Object: Score 20,000 points and increase your CHIN and BODY ratings. Personal Strategy: Combo dummy is also really easy, it is just hard to memorize where to hit once you get to 5 or 6 punch combinations. Don't panic when you are switching from a body shot to a head shot, just take your time and make sure you throw the correct punches. The hardest part about the Combo Dummy is messing up once because you throw the wrong punch, because you won't get a good multiplier score. It is essential to throw the right amount of punches so you gain a lot of points. Once you mess up, you'll start back with one or two combinations. Also, remember to always hold L1 when throwing body shots. Other than that, it's pretty hard to mess up on the combo dummy. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Target Mitts ------------------------------------------------------------------ Hit the trainers target with the correct punch as fast as you can. The faster you are the more points you score. Listen to the trainers instructions to learn what punches to throw. Hints: -Left handed punches hit targets the trainer holds with his left hand. -Right handed punches hit targets the treainer holds with his right hand. Object: Score 20,000 points and increase your HEART and CUTS ratings. Personal Strategy: Target mitts is argueably the hardest of the Trianings. Though it may seem hard at the beginning due to the trainer holding his gloves in different positions, I feel it is very easy to obtain the objective with a little bit of work. The hardest part of the target mitts is the fact that you have to remember to always hit with the opposite hand. So if the glove is lined up on the right side of the screen, make sure you use the left punch button to hit the mit. Again, this is very self-explanatory because the trainer tells you exactly where to hit. Remember that if you throw your jabs and uppercuts correctly, it is ok to miss a few of the right/left body hooks. Those are the hardest to throw because you don't have that much time. If you have any additional questions with the Target Mitts, feel free to ask email me. My Score: 6,400 ------------------------------------------------------------------ 8.

EA SPORTS BIO ------------------------------------------------------------------ Like most of thew new EA Sports games, Fight Night 2004 comes with an EA Sports Bio. EA SPORTS BIO is a new feature desgined to reward you for playing EA SPORTS titles. Your EA SPORTS Bio, a file shared between EA SPORTS games via your memory card, is a summary that tracks key accomplishments and time spent playing different titles in the EA SPORTS lineup. The first time you select EA SPORTS BIO from the My NBA LIVE screen, with a a memory ccard in MEMORY CARD slot 1, you are prompted to create an EA SPORTS Bio. You are also prompted when you complete accomplishments or reach a new gamer level. EA Sports Gamers Levels: When you first create your EA SPORTS Bio, you start out as a Level 1 gamer. There are multiple ways that you can earn credit toward a promotion to the next level. Every EA SPORTS title that you add to your EA SPORTS resume gets your more credit twoward the next gamer level. Play more products, earn a higher level rating - it's as easy at that. Game Time: And you thought you'd never get recognized or rewarded for all the time you put in on EA SPORTS titles. Finally you get rewarded for all your loyalty and devotion to EA SPORTS. Does it get any better than this? THe more time you put in, the faster you rise to the next level. Number Of Games Played: Every game you play and complete gives you credit toward the next level. In addition, winning games give you additional bonus points on the level you achieve. Rewards: When you reach a new level, you may unlock a game-specific reward. Some rewards are bigger than others; it all depends on the level you achieve. A level increase potentially unlocks rewards for all EA SPORTS titles in your Bio, regardless of which title the level was achieved while playing. Accomplishments: In each EA SPORTS game, there are certain accomplishments that you can achieve. These accomplishments vary by title. When you achieve an accomplishment, a prompt appears asking if you want to save this accomplishment to your EA SPORTS Bio. Major Accomplishments: This lists shows the five highest-ranking accomplishments. Recent Accomplishments: This list shows the most recent accomplishments, sorted by date. Note: Fight Night 2004 only supports the EA SPORTS Bio in MEMORY CARD slot 1 and 1-A. ------------------------------------------------------------------ 14.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) ------------------------------------------------------------------ I get many e-mails a day asking the same questions about Fight Night 2004. Here I have added a little section of questions that I am asked daily. If you have any other questions, feel free to e-mail me. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Question: Can you boxer retire in career mode? Answer: Yes, all boxers retire in career mode at some point. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Question: How do I unlock all the unlockables in the game? I've completed the whole Career Mode, but I don't have all the taunts, signature punches, and things like that? Answer: This is possibly the worse feature in Fight Night 2004. To unlock special punches and things like that, you have to fight certain boxers. Though you can't fight a featherweight in heavyweight mode, you can not unlock all the unlockables with one career. Also, depending on your EA Sports Bio level, you can unlock special unlockables. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Question: What is your online name? Answer: I currently can't get on online with my Playstation 2 because i'm behind multiple firewalls at college. If anyone get this around this for me, please contact me. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Question: Are there really one hit knock outs in this game? Answer: Yes :) ------------------------------------------------------------------ Question: In you opinion, who is the best boxer in this game? Answer: Well, it depends on what class you are talking about. I think that Lennox Lewis and Ali are the best fighters in the game to use. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Question: What control configuration do you suggest I use while playing this game? Answer: Control figuration 1. Total control makes Fight Night 2004 the best game on the market. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Question: What level EA Sports Gamer are you? Answer: Level 92...soon to be 100 :) ------------------------------------------------------------------ Question: Where can I reach you online? Answer: At fanbaseballdrew@aol.com, or at Fanbaseballdrew on AIM. ------------------------------------------------------------------ 22.
