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

FIFA football 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 need to score more goals. And the only way to score those points is to discover how to make your kicks count. Here are some 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 playing field. To drag this one off, do a fast double tap - or perhaps 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' some place else, that is'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 goalkeeper. Simply do not hit this one too hard, or it goes 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, as opposed to the hard low shot.

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

Fight Night Round Four

In all the records of sports games, the fighting game has traditionally been a particular fave. Sure, there's an amazing satisfaction in thrashing 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 four 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 swear word that we are probably not allowed to print here ), follow this advice.

First and Foreman... Er, foremost, it's all about the counter-punch. Land one of these in, and the effect is far more strong than your typical uppercut, hook, or straight. There are three 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 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 do not 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 try and keep your distance when possible.

it's also crucial to keep your opponent off-balance ( literally and figuratively ) with a series of jabs. The poke is the swiftest one in the whole game, so your best chance 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 competitor has you on the ropes? Nothing a well-placed head butt or body blow can't fix. Just be cautious 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 said, there's just nothing like settling the score with fisticuffs.
