OMG THEY ADDED BLOCKING!

[Spitfire]

BO YA! I was watching the video Dan posted on the offcial site and it showed Leo blocking Shredder's attacks/ This game is going to be way cooler now

[NeoBix]

Wow cool... maybe some guys on the development team hooked up their old super nintendo in the office and got a little idea from Tournament Fighters. lol :wink:

That's great news! Something as simple as blocking will make a big difference in the game! It's going to be so much better, and tournament fights between players will be much, much better now! Yay! :anime:

Oh, btw, is there any word on if the tournament mode will allow all four players to fight each other in a battle royal, or in teams?

[FireFly]

OH MY GOD you get to fight ultoms thats anuff to make me buy it

[Leonardo_the_sword_master]

I remember reading that mutiplayer battle mode is also 4 player so I cant wait!

I hope that you can use all four turtles to be on teams to fight four other opponents like in the Big Brawl. Ex: the Gongtai and Slontags. That would be pretty sweet.

The lack of a blocking ability was one of the reason the first game sucked IMO (I only played the PC demo). Maybe this game will be good.

[raphael_is_cool]

I watched that IGN video where they're playing as Raph and keep getting mauled by shurikens...maybe they forgot there's a block button

[KROW]

Is this blocking ability going to be like the one featured in the LOTR games? I'm not talking about the fighting accuracy meter but the quick button reaction.

[Spitfire]

Im not sure but I saw Leo blocking attacks from Shredder in the video. It didnt look like a cinimatic so it has to be in the game

[Tokka72]

Yay. Blocking.

[Jet-ski_Ninja]

FINALLY! :tthumbsu:

[NeoBix]

I'll be honest... I don't care what kinda blocking it is... just as long as there is blocking in it lol.

[jestergoblin]

blocking is ALWAYS my downfall in videogames... unless blocking allows me to kill something (like those shell shooting octs in zelda)

[Spitfire]

I dont see how blocking and NOT getting hit can be a downfall but okay hahaha

[Ryona]

I second that.

[Spitfire]

I hope its my favorite kind of blocking. The kind where the computer attacks you and you hold the block until their done and then combo them. I love doing that! I do it all the time in Bloody Roar is pisses my friends off.

[NeoBix]

lol spitfire... I am unbeatable in Soul Calibur and Soul Calibur 2 because of that very thing. lol :lol:
