- Well, James, you can take it like you want, but having experienced it on
- a number of occasions, it is there. There is a LOT of slowdown, but most of
- it is intentional, and exactly the same as the arcade version (KOs, hitting
- with fireball, etc...). However, on a number of occasions, just THROWING
- a fireball has caused slowdown. As an example, a friend and I play Ken/Ryu
- and one time he threw a fireball which I H.Kicked over... The ball didn't
- hit me, I hadn't hit him yet, and it slowed down. In a similar circumstance,
- I jumped over his fireball and hit him with a fierce. As I was in flight
- over the fireball, it slowed down and ruined my chances for the big kill:-)
-
- It doesn't happen all the time, nor does it happen consistently, but it does
- happen.
