xMaJoRdAnGeRx Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 (edited) http://tiles.xbox.com/tiles/SK/Ml/0YCLiGJhbC83FQQaXFJRF0E0L2FjaC8wL0MAAAAA5+fn-gqjUw==.jpg One for the History Books Play a game that gets designated as an ESPN Instant Classic (excludes co-op). Notice: This guide has been confirmed to help some people gain this achivement. My guide is just a basic structure that I used to unlocked this achievement and has been known to not unlock for some. Just keep trying if you don't have this yet and be really patience. It took me about 7 tries to get this and I did the same thing everytime. Setup: Default (5 mins,Varsity, default sliders) Teams: Tenn @ Florida Rivalry: Yes Boxscore: 1st: Tenn 0 Florida 7 2nd: Tenn 7 Florida 0 3rd: Tenn 10 Florida 7 4th: Tenn 0 Florida 7 Final Score : Tenn 17 - Florida 21 Espn Classic Score: 646 Method: I used all of the default settings. Started the game up by scoring early, ran the clock out going into the 2nd quarter. When the 2nd quarter began, I kicked a FG straight out of bounds, giving them the ball. When on defense, I pumped the crowd up alil bit and held the CPU to 3rd down. When it was 3rd down, i ran FG Block which made them throw over me for an easy TD. When the 3rd quarter started, I gave the ball back to them and repeated the same process, letting them score 10 uncontested.After that,I began to play normal scoring 7 in the 3rd. While running down the clock to 1:52 I scored the last TD and held out for the win. *Tip: While on offense, I used the quiet crowd animation to get the crowd involved. Idk if it helped but it worked* Also, i used the even team(RB) while setting up the team. Confirmed by DarkManX : Sliders and Quarters can be changed.[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w2EVQj06Zeg][/ame] Edited July 31, 2009 by xMaJoRdAnGeRx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkManX Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Do you think It will matter if I use 2 controllers? I haven't been very lucky for this achievement just seeing if it would make a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkManX Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 My Man you are a genius I am so happy right now. I even used sliders and changed quarters. I really thought this was glitched for a lot of us. The score was exactly the same I pumped up the crowd as much as possible and scoring summary was the same for me. Do it in the exact order that he has. Good Luck Everyone!

SengIV Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Did you follow the guide exactly? This achievement is glitched for some still. A triple overtime game is easily a classic. My triple ot game gave me 4000 classic points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was constantly using 2 controllers whenever going for this achievement, Do exactly what he tells you keep it at the same score and same scoring sequence. Again I played on freshman with sliders on 3 minute quarters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basic BG Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 just played a 5OT game Cal vs. USC (cause USC is my showdown team and i can't change that) with constant lead changes and crowd involvement (pumping up/quieting crowd) and it still didnt work........ o ya and im only using one controller against the CPU........ im gonna try fla v. tenn 1 more time..................

Basic BG Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 1st lemme say BIG UPS to Major for the strategy and props to Darkman....... i erased all my files cleared cache, loaded up game, selected florida as my favorite team....... loaded up tenn @ fla with sliders adjusted, 3 min quarters, freshman difficulty..... followed the guide to a T, ESPECIALLY the scoring sequence (my first 2 tries the scoring sequence was slightly off)...... after the game i had like 347 instant classic score or some crap (who cares) and it popped ..... this strategy works even for the glitchy games like the 1 I had....... just follow scoring sequence and it should unlock:drunk:woop: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
