YouTube - How to get 18 blocks on NBA Live 08

here unknown if you have to do it byyourself... put controller 1 (the account you want the achievement) on the team with the 7footer @ PG.. play as the magic on the 2nd controller. walk down the court with nelson, hit A Button on controller 1 so the pg is cpu controlled.. walk down shoot a 3 with nelson, the 7footer will block it pretty much everytime.. when you get to 18 take out the batter pack in controller 2, pick up controller 1 quit/rematch and you'll get it

That, in all honesty, isn't the best way to get it. And definately isn't superfast.

You see at about 49 seconds, he misses 2 or 3 in a row? Not to mention with how much he cuts out, it makes it look "quick". It's rather hard to get the timing down, ESPECIALLY if you don't have a second person to help out and you're trying to do it with two controllers by yourself, that's close to impossible to get all the positioning and timing right.

Create 2 players, one as tall as you can, one as short as you can, both PG's. Instead of trying to time the jump, just hold up on the right analog stick to make the player hold his arms in the air, then just run at him with the short dude and try to shoot, block everytime without having to time anything.

P.S. He didn't even get the 18 block achievement. He got the 15+ with a team "Block Fest." You can see it pop at the end.

wrong.. i seriously just got it within 3 minutes first quater.. read how i explained how to do it by yourself

Ok, I gotcha, my bad, I didn't see that he was not controlling the center to get him to block it.

It's still relatively easy the way I posted, but I will step back and say that it may even be easier this way. My apologies.

EDIT: Now I see that isn't how it was done in the video, thus my confusion. At this point, I stand by my previous statement, but this could work as well.

[Augustus84]

how does that work when the achievement specifically says "solo game against the CPU"?

Edit: it worked :-)

Actually you can see both of the blocking achievements pop up at the end.

The embedded video doesn't do much justice, I shoud have added the instructions inside the video itself. Here it is.

It's really simple. Start a 2 player game, use somebody about 7'6. Block up to 18 shots. Confirm that 18 shots have been blocked. Then unplug the controller of whichever team was shooting. Resume the 1 player game, and select quit game/rematch. Wait for the new tipoff and boom, achievement unlocked.

Thanks iincrdblhlk the blocks achievements worked. I been trying to get them for a while. I am glad you found that out. Thanks a lot dude.

Yeah, I must not have been paying attention. While I didn't think it was an easy way to do it, it seems to be helping people, and well, you can't argue against that. Cheers to you for taking the effort to make the video, and I hope I didn't come off in a negative way

[Parkerktm]

All these methods are good but ti'll have to narrow it down to one when i go back to this game and finish it off to 1000

[BustaMo]

Holy crap. I gotta say I doubted this method as well, but I got 21 blocks with Yao Ming, did what you said, and at tip-off I got my achievement! Awesome! Thanks man!

[Kingbobby12]

heres what i did moved yao to point guard he got 18 bocks.paused it with controller one. unplugged controller two. went to rematch moved controllers to original spot. diddnt get it twice. Help

Nevermind got it

[boo516]

whenever I remove the 2nd controller battery it always goes to the controller assigment screen. then when I plug it back in I got no achievment. do I have to remove update?

You don't need to I just got this achievement. when it goes to the controller assignment screen just press B and it'll go back to the match then just go to rematch and it'll pop up at the start of the game.

[Raggy6584]

finally got it the blocking achievements where by far the hardest on the game

[Strongbad107]

Yeah this works, i wonder if i can get the rebound achievements with it.

[TheChupacabra10]

I found for the rebound achievement it was easier to jack the fouls way up and have a big playing small forward. Turn all the ratings down on free throw shooting for the opposite team. so when you hack a shaq, they always miss the second free throw and the clock doesnt tick. and you always be default control the sf to make a big leap at the board. then when on offense push your layup/dunk button from the free throw line, usually misses it and follow up as soon as you push it. I did this with Shaun Marion. Turn down offensive fouls though or you will get called on the dunk button shots a fair bit

[gatorbait]

Man, I wish this was up when I rented the game. Looks like I'll be adding NBA Live back to the Gamefly list to get the final 2 achievements.

[TheChupacabra10]

I seen the dynasty one is the other you have left Gaitor, I put some advice in one of the other threads in an easy way to get that in 10 years

[XxChiCubs32xX]

Awesome video...ill definitely have to re-rent this game to try it

I did this method, even got the prompt that I'd no longer get Achievements, said "Okay, I trust ill" and proceeded. Got the ding for both block Achievements. Now all I have left is the two rebounds ones!

[zzjj]

great this will help out a lot when i try for this achievement

[smelters005]

I got this ach in 2 min and 39 seconds by doing this. Great Tip thanks alot

[KingOfGotham]

This worked great but it took me a whole quarter.

Yao stopped jumping at 14 for some reason, so I had to like kind of back him up then shoot it to work.

But it's great

[The Answer PNE]

Great tip - helped me to get my 1000 on this game today

[Law]

Nice trick, this worked for me. Made this achievement very easy.

[happy42gilmore]

haha it worked! when i took out the battery pack of the 2nd controller it even said this will cancel any achievements are you sure you want too? and i hit rematch and i still got it, thanks a ton!

[ferrara316]

yeah i would say it is the best and easiest way as trying to time it with two controllers works 1 out of 10. while this strategy works out say 2 out of 5 times.

[donkeljohn]

That is a great exploit.
I tried a lot of different ways (including playing it legit). This got me the achievement in minutes.
Thanks!

[gdozer1]

Awesome. Worked to perfection. Thanks so much for the tips.
