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 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 only way to score those points is to be told 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're farther back on the field. To drag 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 is about the quick tap ( by quick tap, I am referring only to FIFA soccer game tournament - if you're doing the'quick tap' some place else, that's'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 goalkeeper. Just 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 have a moment to stop and try for a well-aimed shot ; the finesse shot is recommended for when you're closer to the goal, versus 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 every time.

Fight Night Round Four

In all the annals of sports games, the boxing game has traditionally been a specific fave. Sure, there's an amazing satisfaction in thrashing your opponent at football, football, 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 greatest 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 cuss word that we are possibly 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 much more strong than your classic 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 competitor's punch lands. Second is the lean ; right as your rival is preparing 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 a lot of time to make the counter-punch, so be certain 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 try to keep your distance whenever possible.

it's also important to keep your contestant off-balance ( literally and figuratively ) with a series of jabs. The jab is the swiftest one in the whole game, so your best bet 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 take care with this one : you might get docked a point, or be disqualified.

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