- I have noticed that some enemies can block a player's attack and take
- reduced damage. 'Barbon' is the first charachter to do this I think. One
- interesting side effect is that if you use Max's sacrifice shoulder slam
- and Barbon blocks it, he takes damage each time he blocks. Unfortunately
- for him, Max keeps on charging until he stops blocking and gets knocked over,
- or until he's out! In one game, I charged with max and destroyed Barbon and
- all of his punks with just that one attack. If he hadn't blocked, he would
- have been knocked down and taken only one hit. I've wasted another enemy
- of higher level like this, but it was probably sheer luck. I also remember
- having normal attacks blocked. Has anyone found out any detail on how blocking
- works and which enemies do it?
- On a totally unrelated topic, what do charachters say during the
- special attacks. Blaze seems to say "Bullethole" for her fireball, and
- "Do the Polka!" for her slash attack. Axel seems to say "Grab the Paw!"
- for his grand uppercut. Are these all in japanese al la "ShoRyuKen!"?
