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

FIFA football 09

Who doesn't love FIFA 09, with all the tricks and techniques? There's nothing better than showing up your rivals with a few fake-outs. But all of us are about winning here, and to do that, you need to score more goals. And the simplest way to score those points is to discover 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 farther back on the playing 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 all about the quick tap ( by fast tap, I am referring only to FIFA football game tournament - if you're 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 goalkeeper. 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'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 simple 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 records of sports games, the fighting game has often been a specific favorite. Sure, there's an incredible 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 greatest 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 expletive that we are possibly not permitted to print here ), follow these pointers.

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 ways 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 preparing to get one in, lean back right or left. Then, go to the 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 lots of time to make the counter-punch, so be sure to get in there fast. 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 it's possible.

it is also vital to keep your competitor off-balance ( literally and figuratively ) with a sequence of pokes. The jab is the fastest 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 filthy. Your contestant 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 said, there's just nothing quite like settling the score with fisticuffs.
