How to High Step in Madden

Madden NFL is one of the longest-running video-game franchises (since 1989) and part of the Electronic Arts "EA Sports" division. Later releases of Madden games have added extra features, including the popular "hit-stick" and "QB vision." Another added feature is the ability to taunt your opponent by performing a "high step" on your way to the end zone. The high step is flashy and fun, but it also leaves you vulnerable. Certain precautions should be taken when high stepping.

Instructions

1. • 1

     Break into your run, making sure there isn't a defender within 10 yards of you. High stepping slows you down; if a defender is close, high stepping could allow them to catch you.

     Hold the "Circle" button as you get inside the 20-yard line, if you're playing Madden on the PS2 or PS3. The high step taunt does not work unless you are inside the 20-yard line.

     Press and hold "B" when inside the 20-yard line, if you're playing Madden on the XBox 360.
