     Okay, here's what I know about the latest rip-off from Neo-Geo (do they 
ever come out with anything original?  At least they know what company to 
copy games from... but I digress)


For the first two guys (I forgot their names, but they're the ninja-like
  Ryu-Ken dopplegangers):
     SHURIKEN--- down, down-forward, forward and punch.  
     HURRICANE (body?)--- down, down-back, back and kick.
     DRAGON PUNCH--- forward, down, down-forward and punch.

J A N N E (The French Joan of Arc chick): 
     FLAMING BIRD--- charge back, forward and punch.
     SLICE!--- charge down, up and punch.
     SLIDE KICK--- (Like Vega) ???

D R A G O N (Bruce Lee complete with high-pitched kiais, I like Liu Kang better
   though!)
     HUNDRED HANDS--- jam on the punch button.
     DRAGON KICK--- down, down-forward, forward, forward-flip and kick.  It
         goes at an angle, but I've also seen it go straight up.

R A S P U T I N (Rasputin)
     FIREBALL--- down, down forward, forward and punch.
     JUMPING FIREBALL --- jump and do the FIREBALL.
     HURRICANE ROBE!--- down, down-back, back and kick.

B R O K E N (Bison with Dhalsim-extendable limbs)
     TACTICAL NUKE--- down, down-forward, forward and punch.
     SHOCK THERAPY--- jam on the punch button.
        ??? (He can also shock at a 45-degree angle upwards)
     FLYING TORPEDO--- down, down-forward, forward, forward-flip and punch.
        Also he can do a torpedo by holding down on the punch while in the air.

(Hulk Hogan)
     CHARGE--- charge back, forward and punch.

(Ghengis khan type)
     CHARGE--- ???
     SLIDE KICK--- ???

  The last two are a little hazy since I didn't really play them but I do 
remember that they had those attacks.  I've only played this 3 or 4 times so
I haven't really had a chance to experiment with the moves a lot.  I did
solve it (using Janne) and the BOSS(singular) is a really lame doppleganger
that changes into the oppenents that you've already fought (nothing new to
challenge), but the ending was decent so I'm glad it only cost a credit to 
solve(it was probably on an easy setting or it isn't that hard to solve).

Anyway, for those who have just started playing here's a few tips or facts

1) There are only two types of attacks: Light- tap the button, and Strong -hold
   the button down a little longer.  using a light attack for some special 
   moves like a fireball will give you a small projectile while a strong attack
   gives you a much larger one.  Also some strong attacks can make a big 
   difference like Rasputin's giant hands and feet or Brokens extended range
   attacks. 
2) The throw button isn't the only way to wrestle people.  If you are very 
   close to your opponent some characters can wrestle using a punch or a kick
   button. 
3) And most important, learn how to defend against attacks.  Ask any local
   SF2 veteran about defending or the importance of it.     

   Well, that's all I can say for now, I would just like to thank all of those
people out there who are figuring out how to do fatalities on Mortal Kombat.
It's saved me some money for not trying to figure it out myself.  I hope
that this will save others some money also.  But my opinion is that SF2CE
is still the best.  It has the best flexability and the most well balanced
combat system.  World Heroes and Mortal Kombat may be temporary diversions
for those looking for something new, but SF2CE still packs better quality.

               Catch everyone later,
