OMG THEY ADDED BLOCKING!
 

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

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?

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

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, and i am sure they oppents will be harder then heck.

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.

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

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

Yay. Blocking.

FINALLY! :tthumbsu:

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

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

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

I second that.

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.

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