How to play FIFA 2008 Multiplayer

Those who like to play FIFA 2008 like I do will find this very interesting.

Playing FIFA 2008 against the computer can become boring and after completing a few seasons you end up stop playing. Before you get bored why don't you try to play with your friends? Yes you can play FIFA 2008 with your friends and guess what you don't even need to call your friend at your place to play. You can play against friends from your place at any time. Here is how you should proceed:

Requirements:

  1. FIFA 2008 (The game)
  2. LogMeIn Hamachi (Freely available here https://secure.logmein.com/products/hamachi/list.asp)
  3. Internet Broadband connection (greater or equal to 128 KB/s)

Step 1:

Install the FIFA 2008 game on your machine.

Step 2:

Install LogMeIn Hamachi on your machine.

Step 3:

After installing LogMeIn Hamachi, launch the program and go to its preferences.

Step 4:

Go to the security section and uncheck the "Block vulnerable Microsoft Windows services" checkbox.

Step 5:

Click on Ok then click on the "Power On" button of LogMeIn Hamachi.

Step 6:

When LogMeIn Hamachi is on click on "Create or join networks button"

Step 7:

Create your own network and ask your friend to join it. Don't forget to give him/her the network name and password

Step 8:

If you are going to host then only click on host.

If you will connect to your friend, click on new, enter your friends name and then enter the IP which he has on his hamachi.

Then connect and enjoy the game.
