THIS IS WHAT THE BIBLE TELLS US:
Your heart tends to run from God and rebel against Him. The Bible
calls this,"sin". Romans 3:23 says,"For all have sinned and fall short
of the glory of God."
Yet God loves you and wants to save you from sin,to offer you a new
life of hope. John 10:10 says, "I have come that you may have life,and
have it to the full."
To give you this gift of salvation,God made a way through his
son,Jesus Christ. Romans 5:8 says,"But God demonstrates his own love
for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us."
You recieve this gift by faith alone. Ephesians 2:8 says,"For it is by
grace you have been saved, through faith - and this not from
yourselves, it is the gift of God - not by works , so that no one can
boast."
Faith is a decision of your heart demonstrated by the actions of your
life. Romans 10:9 says,"If you confess with your mouth,'Jesus is
Lord',and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you
will be saved."
If you are choosing right now to believe Jesus died for your sins and
to recieve new life through Him, pray a prayer similar to this to
thank Him for your new life:
Dear God, I know I am a sinner. I believe Jesus died to forgive me of
my sins. I now accept Your offer of eternal life. Thank You for
forgiving me of all my sin. Thank You for my new life. From this day
forward, I will choose to follow you.
If this expresses the desire of your heart , or if you have ANY
questions...write me via Fido or E-mail (upper@atl.mindspring.com) and
I will attempt to answer any questions.....if I can't I promise to put
you in touch with those who can!!
                   John 15:5

assistant: Yah.. I knew the code before you replied to me.  Instead of holding start,
  try just tapping the button once, move to the characters, then hold start
and press any button.  And the Zangief/Dhalsim ones I knew already too, but
if you want a challenge, use them instead of the SFA2 version of them.

Write your reply.

assistant: It's Ryu when he has learned the evil power. He's kick ass. I use him now
instead of Rose.
To get Evil Ryu, After you put your money in, press and hold start(if on 1st
player side,if not for 2p move to ryu then press and hold start), I count 2
seconds, e.g. one/one-thousand.  from ryu move to adon which is right, count
two, then move to akuma which is up, count two, then move to adon again which
is down, count two, then move to  ryu, and press jab+Fierce, or
short+roundhouse, that or maybe any button. But you'll get him, He has 3-hit
uppercut now, akuma juggles, teleports and supers except air fireball.
Including 15-hit grab super.

assistant: Salutations All!
I would appreciate it if someone could direct me to FAQs or hints for either
Time Crisis by Namco (the arcade version, don't know if others exist though)
and Sega Rally.
I've been searching for a FAQ for Time Crisis, one does not seem to exist,
probably because of the newess of the game. Are there any hidden codes within
the game?
For Sega Rally, I'm aware of a pretty informative FAQ for it, wonder if there
are any more. Can someone who has completed the lakeside course give me some
tips? How in the world does someone navigate the turns? Powersliding or by
lowering the car's speed before reaching the turn and then turning it
'professionally'?
Any tips and hints would be greatly appreciated.
Regards

Inferno: HCT+1
Fireball: air, QCT+P

High Slam: DB-D-DF+6
Laugh: DF-D-DB+3  (it don't drain any energy, only for CPU)
Fly: air, U+3     Stop flying:  D+6
after flying you can control Gargos jumps or air fireballs, until you get hit
by your opponent.
There is my question:  what is the use of HCB-F+4.
it seems to be a bug Gargos freeze and your heard him laugh.
Uppercut: F-D-DF+3    (use this motion with different buttons for combo
                  breaker)
** Does Gargos got a 5th (or should I say another ender other than his F-
                     D-DF+3)
** Can you get combo higher than 10 (is there any linkers)  ?

Yes!  I agree totally!  Plus, I just hate the fight games period.  I
mean all these stupid combos to do moves.  The guy should go in the
direction you move the joystick, not something completely diff. cause
it's a combo.  It's kinda like those Dragon's Lair games.  Your guy
doesn't move realistically or exactly the way you moved the controls.  I
dunno if that makes any sense.  Anyway DIE FIGHT GAMES DIE!
