Sports Video Games Winning Tips for FIFA Soccer and Fight Night Round 4

FIFA soccer 09

Who doesn't really like FIFA 09, with all of the tricks and techniques? There's nothing better than showing up your rivals with one or two fake-outs. But all of us are about winning here, and to do that, you want to score more goals. And the best way to score those points is to discover how to make your kicks count. Here are a few strategies that should do the trick.

First, there's the hard low shot, a great move to make when you are farther back on the field. To drag this one off, do a fast double tap - or triple tap - on the shoot button. Whatever you do, don't hold the button down too long. Remember, it is about the fast tap ( by fast tap, I am referring only to FIFA football game tournament - if you're doing the'quick tap' somewhere else, that's's your business... ).

Also good to grasp is the chip shot. Do this with a combo of the LB and shoot button ; the ball goes right over the goal tender. Simply do not hit this one too hard, or it is going flying over the net.

And then there's the ever-lovin' finesse shot, a fave of the FIFA player. This one can be executed simply by pressing the RB ( or R1, depending on your system ). Do this one when you've got a moment to stop and try for a well-aimed shot ; the refinement shot is recommended for when you are nearer to the goal, vs the hard low shot.

These tips are simple to learn, and after getting the hang of it, you'll be cleaning out your rivals' accounts each time.

Fight Night Round Four

In all the records of sports games, the boxing game has traditionally been a specific favorite. Sure, there's a tremendous satisfaction in thrashing your contestant at football, soccer, or Basketball. But there's something downright therapeutic about literally getting to kick the crap out of your best buds. And so it is with EA's Fight Night Round 4 game, where you get to play as some of the greatest men that ever took up the sweet science. But in order to float like a butterfly, sting like a bee, and make your rival holler'Uncle!' ( or some other cuss word that we're probably not allowed to print here ), follow these tips.

First and Foreman... Er, foremost, it is all about the counter-punch. Land one of these in, and the effect is much more strong than your typical uppercut, hook, or straight. There are 3 basic ways to get the counter-punch. First, the well-timed block ; put up your guard right as your opponent's's punch lands. Second is the lean ; right as your rival is preparing to get one in, lean back right or left. Then, go to the town. 3rd, bob ; use semi-circle movements with the left stick to bob out of the way. Word of caution, though - act fast! You don't have a hell of plenty of time to make the counter-punch, so be sure to get in there swiftly. Also remember that your contestant can land in a solid counter-punch after they have blocked, ducked or weaved. So attempt to keep your distance whenever it's possible.

it's also important to keep your competitor off-balance ( literally and figuratively ) with a series of pokes. The jab is the speediest one in the whole game, so your best chance is to land one in when your contestant is swinging an uppercut or a hook at you.

And when all else fails, do what comes naturally : fight unclean. Your opponent has you on the ropes? Nothing a well-placed head butt or body blow can't fix. Just be careful with this one : you might get docked a point, or be disqualified.

So just try these pointers, and you could have your opponents eating canvas ( served up with a side of crow ). Like we claimed, there's just nothing like settling the score with fisticuffs.
