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

FIFA football 09

Who does not love FIFA 09, with all the tricks and techniques? There's nothing better than showing up your rivals with some 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 one or two strategies that should do the job.

First, there's the hard low shot, a great move to make when you are further back on the playing field. To drag this one off, do a quick double tap - or perhaps 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'm referring only to FIFA football game tournament - if you are doing the'quick tap' somewhere else, that is's your business... ).

Also good to know is the chip shot. Do this with a combo of the LB and shoot button ; the ball goes right over the goal tender. Just don't hit this one too hard, or it goes flying over the net.

And then there's the ever-lovin' refinement 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 have a moment to stop and try for a well-aimed shot ; the finesse shot is recommended for when you're nearer to the goal, versus the hard low shot.

These tips are simple to learn, and after getting the it down pat, you will be cleaning out your rivals' accounts each time.

Fight Night Round Four

In all the records of sports games, the fighting game has traditionally been a selected favorite. Sure, there's a tremendous satisfaction in thrashing your opponent at soccer, 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 four game, where you get to play as some of the best 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 another swear word that we are possibly not permitted 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 far more strong than your standard uppercut, hook, or straight. There are 3 basic methods 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 getting ready to get one in, lean back right or left. Then, go to town. 3rd, bob ; use semi-circle movements with the left stick to bob out of the way. Word of warning, 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 quickly . Also remember that your adversary can land in a solid counter-punch after they've blocked, ducked or weaved. So try and keep your distance whenever it's possible.

it is also vital to keep your opponent off-balance ( literally and figuratively ) with a sequence of pokes. The poke 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 take care with this one : you might get docked a point, or be disqualified.

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