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

FIFA soccer 09

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

First, there's the hard low shot, a great move to make when you are further back on the field. To drag this one off, do a quick double tap - or triple tap - on the shoot button. Whatever you do, don't hold the button down too long. Remember, it's about the fast tap ( by quick tap, I am referring only to FIFA football game tournament - if you are 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 favourite 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 closer to the goal, versus the hard low shot.

These tips are easy 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 annals of sports games, the boxing game has always been a specific favorite. Sure, there's a tremendous satisfaction in beating your competitor at football, football, or Basketball. But there's something downright healing 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 best men that ever took up the sweet science. But 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 pointers.

First and Foreman... Er, foremost, it's all about the counter-punch. Land one of these in, and the effect is much more potent than your classic 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 punch lands. Second is the lean ; right as your rival is getting ready to get one in, lean back left or right. Then, go to town. Third, bob ; use semi-circle movements with the left stick to bob out of the way. Word of advice, though - act fast! You do not have a hell of a lot of time to make the counter-punch, so be certain to get in there quickly . Also remember that your adversary can land in a solid counter-punch after they have blocked, ducked or weaved. So attempt to keep your distance whenever possible.

it is also vital to keep your competitor off-balance ( literally and figuratively ) with a sequence of pokes. The poke is the speediest one in the whole game, so your best bet is to land one in when your adversary is swinging an uppercut or a hook at you.

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

So just follow these tips, and you will 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.
