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

FIFA football 09

Who doesn't love FIFA 09, with all of 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 simplest way to score those points is to be told how to make your kicks count. Here are a few techniques that should do the job.

First, there's the hard low shot, a great move to make when you're further 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's about the quick 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 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 it down pat, you will be cleaning out your rivals' accounts every time.

Fight Night Round Four

In all the records of sports games, the boxing game has often been a selected favourite. Sure, there's a tremendous satisfaction in thrashing your opponent 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 4 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 likely not allowed to print here ), follow these pointers.

First and Foreman... Er, foremost, it's about the counter-punch. Land one of these in, and the effect is much more powerful than your standard uppercut, hook, or straight. There are three 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 getting ready to get one in, lean back right or left. Then, go to the city. 3rd, 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 plenty 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 important to keep your competitor off-balance ( literally and figuratively ) with a collection of pokes. The jab is the swiftest one in the whole game, so your best chance is to land one in when your opponent is swinging an uppercut or a hook at you.

And when all else fails, do what comes naturally : fight unclean. 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 could get docked a point, or be disqualified.

So just try these tips, and you will 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.
