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

FIFA football 09

Who doesn't really like FIFA 09, with all the tricks and techniques? There's nothing better than showing up your rivals with some fake-outs. But we're 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 one or two strategies 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 quick 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 fast tap ( by fast tap, I'm referring only to FIFA football game tournament - if you're doing the'quick tap' elsewhere, that's'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 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 a moment to stop and try for a well-aimed shot ; the refinement shot is recommended for when you are nearer to the goal, as opposed to the hard low shot.

These tips are easy to learn, and after getting the trick down pat, 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 particular favourite. Sure, there's a tremendous satisfaction in thrashing your competitor 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 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 some other expletive that we are possibly not allowed to print here ), follow this advice.

First and Foreman... Er, foremost, it's about the counter-punch. Land one of these in, and the effect is much more potent than your classic uppercut, hook, or straight. There are three basic techniques 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 about to get one in, lean back right or left. Then, go to the city. Third, bob ; use semi-circle movements with the left stick to bob out of the way. Word of advice, 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 quickly . Also remember that your opponent can land in a solid counter-punch after they have blocked, ducked or weaved. So try to keep your distance when possible.

it's also vital to keep your contestant off-balance ( literally and figuratively ) with a collection of pokes. 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 contestant 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 said, there's just nothing like settling the score with fisticuffs.
