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

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 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 discover how to make your kicks count. Here are some methodologies that should do the job.

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 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 fast tap ( by quick tap, I am referring only to FIFA soccer game tournament - if you are 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' finesse shot, a favorite 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, versus 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 every time.

Fight Night Round Four

In all of the annals of sports games, the fighting game has often been a particular favourite. Sure, there's an incredible satisfaction in beating your competitor at soccer, 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 4 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 another cuss word that we are probably not allowed 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 much more powerful 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 opponent's'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 city. 3rd, bob ; use semi-circle movements with the left stick to bob out of the way. Word of caution, 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 to keep your distance whenever possible.

it's also important to keep your competitor off-balance ( literally and figuratively ) with a series of pokes. The poke is the fastest one in the entire 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 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'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.
