I love this game, it is one of my favorites on the VB. That being said, I have a question about gameplay that I can’t figure out. When you hold down a blocking direction with the left or right pads, it will eventually start to flash. From my video game experience, flashing tells me my punches are “charged up” and I should be able to do a super punch or something. But once my fists become “charged” I can’t seem to do anything. My guy won’t punch or change blocking positions. I just have to let go of all the buttons and start over again.

I didn’t see anything in the manual about this, but then again I haven’t read it for a while. Can somebody explain to me what the flashing is for?

Isn’t that like a punishment to prevent you from being chicken and block all the time? 😉

Haha, I don’t know, that’s why I’m asking! It doesn’t happen to me often, I just wanted to know. 😛

Aha! I KNEW there were special moves. They’re called Machine Gun attacks and there are about 4 of them. I read through the manual again and found them toward the end. Page 20 or so.

Basically the way it works is you press and hold a direction until you start flashing, and then you hit L+R to do your machine gun special attack. Now I just have to figure out how to use it effectively.
