Fight Night Round Four and FIFA Soccer Video Games Play 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 a few fake-outs. But we're all about winning here, and in order to do that, you want to score more goals. And the best way to score those points is to learn how to make your kicks count. Here are some 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 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 quick tap ( by quick tap, I am referring only to FIFA soccer game tournament - if you are doing the'quick tap' somewhere else, that is's your business... ).

Also good to grasp is the chip shot. Do this with a combo of the LB and shoot button ; the ball goes right over the goal tender. Simply do not hit this one too hard, or it goes flying over the net.

And then there's the ever-lovin' refinement 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 finesse shot is recommended for when you're closer to the goal, vs the hard low shot.

These tips are simple to learn, and after getting the it down pat, you'll be cleaning out your rivals' accounts each time.

Fight Night Round Four

In all the annals of sports games, the boxing game has traditionally been a specific favorite. 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 four game, where you get to play as some of the best men that ever took up the sweet science. But in order to float like a butterfly, sting like a bee, and make your rival holler'Uncle!' ( or some other expletive that we're possibly not permitted 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 potent than your standard 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 right or left. Then, go to the town. 3rd, bob ; use semi-circle movements with the left stick to bob out of the way. Word of warning, 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 swiftly. 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 it's possible.

it's also crucial to keep your contestant off-balance ( literally and figuratively ) with a series of jabs. The poke is the fastest one in the whole game, so your best bet 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 opponent has you on the ropes? Nothing a well-placed head butt or body blow can't fix. Just be cautious with this one : you could get docked a point, or be disqualified.

So just try 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.
