FIFA Soccer 09 and Fight Night Round 4 Sports Video Games Winning Tips

FIFA soccer 09

Who does not love FIFA 09, with all the tricks and techniques? There's nothing better than showing up your rivals with some fake-outs. But we are all about winning here, and 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 job.

First, there's the hard low shot, a great move to make when you're farther back on the playing field. To pull this one off, do a quick 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 quick tap, I am referring only to FIFA soccer game tournament - if you are doing the'quick tap' elsewhere, that is's your business... ).

Also good to understand 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' finesse 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're closer to the goal, as opposed to the hard low shot.

These tips are easy 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 of the annals of sports games, the fighting game has traditionally been a particular favourite. Sure, there's an incredible satisfaction in beating your contestant 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 four 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 likely not permitted to print here ), follow these pointers.

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 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 do not 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 and keep your distance whenever it's possible.

it's 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 dirty. 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 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 revealed, there's just nothing quite like settling the score with fisticuffs.
