Fight Night Round 4 and FIFA 09 Sports Games Winning Secrets

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 some fake-outs. But we're all about winning here, and to do that, you want to score more goals. And the simplest way to score those points is to learn how to make your kicks count. Here are some strategies that should do the trick.

First, there's the hard low shot, a great move to make when you are farther back on the playing field. To tug 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's all about the quick tap ( by quick tap, I'm referring only to FIFA football game tournament - if you're 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 goalie. Simply do not hit this one too hard, or it is going flying over the net.

And then there's the ever-lovin' refinement 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 refinement shot is recommended for when you're 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 will be cleaning out your rivals' accounts each time.

Fight Night Round Four

In all of the annals of sports games, the boxing game has often been a particular favorite. Sure, there's an incredible satisfaction in beating your opponent at soccer, soccer, 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 some other expletive that we are likely not allowed to print here ), follow these tips.

First and Foreman... Er, foremost, it's about the counter-punch. Land one of these in, and the effect is far more powerful than your standard uppercut, hook, or straight. There are three basic methods 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 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 advice, though - act fast! You don't have a hell of plenty of time to make the counter-punch, so be certain to get in there quickly . Also remember that your contestant 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 important to keep your contestant off-balance ( literally and figuratively ) with a sequence of pokes. The jab is the speediest 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 unclean. Your competitor 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 tips, 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.
