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

FIFA soccer 09

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

First, there's the hard low shot, a great move to make when you're further back on the playing field. To tug 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's about the quick tap ( by quick tap, I'm 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 goalie. Simply do not hit this one too hard, or it goes flying over the net.

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

These tips are straightforward to learn, and after getting the trick 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 specific favourite. Sure, there's an amazing satisfaction in beating your opponent at soccer, 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 in order 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 permitted to print here ), follow this advice.

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 three basic ways to get the counter-punch. First, the well-timed block ; put up your guard right as your competitor's punch lands. Second is the lean ; right as your rival is about 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 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 have blocked, ducked or weaved. So try and keep your distance whenever possible.

it's also crucial to keep your contestant off-balance ( literally and figuratively ) with a collection of jabs. The jab is the swiftest one in the whole game, so your best shot is to land one in when your opponent 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 cautious with this one : you might get docked a point, or be disqualified.

So just try these tips, and you'll 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.
