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 a few fake-outs. But we are all about winning here, and in order to do that, you want to score more goals. And the simplest way to score those points is to be told how to make your kicks count. Here are one or two techniques 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 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'm referring only to FIFA soccer game tournament - if you're doing the'quick tap' elsewhere, 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 goalie. Simply do not hit this one too hard, or it is going 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 got a moment to stop and try for a well-aimed shot ; the finesse shot is recommended for when you are nearer to the goal, as opposed to 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 of the annals of sports games, the fighting game has often been a specific favorite. Sure, there's a tremendous satisfaction in beating 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 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 powerful than your standard uppercut, hook, or straight. There are three 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 about to get one in, lean back right or left. Then, go to town. Third, bob ; use semi-circle movements with the left stick to bob out of the way. Word of warning, though - act fast! You do not have a hell of a lot 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 attempt to keep your distance when possible.

it is also vital to keep your competitor off-balance ( literally and figuratively ) with a series of jabs. The jab is the speediest one in the entire 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 unclean. Your contestant has you on the ropes? Nothing a well-placed head butt or body blow can't fix. Just be careful with this one : you could get docked a point, or be disqualified.

So just try these tips, and you will 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.
