Fight Night Round 4 and FIFA 09 Sports Games Winning Secrets

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 all of us are about winning here, and in order to do that, you need to score more goals. And the only way to score those points is to learn how to make your kicks count. Here are one or two techniques 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 tug this one off, do a quick double tap - or even 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' somewhere else, 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 goal tender. 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 favourite 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 straightforward 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 fighting game has often been a selected favorite. Sure, there's a tremendous satisfaction in thrashing your opponent 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 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 another expletive that we're possibly 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 far more potent 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 opponent'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 town. Third, bob ; use semi-circle movements with the left stick to bob out of the way. Word of caution, though - act fast! You don't have a hell of a lot of time to make the counter-punch, so be sure 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 whenever it's possible.

it's also vital to keep your opponent off-balance ( literally and figuratively ) with a sequence of pokes. The poke is the fastest one in the entire game, so your best bet 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 opponent 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 claimed, there's just nothing like settling the score with fisticuffs.
