If You Thought That The Impact Game Would Be MK...

[Chainsaw]

...Looks like you may have been right.

9. How do you perform a finishing maneuver? Are you able to store finishers? If so how many can you store? Are there any special effects when performing a finisher?


There are some awesome finishing moves in the game. Unleashing these on your opponent can be devastating. They are one of my favorite parts of the game. To do a finisher you have to fill your IMPACT bar. Once it is on fire, you press a series of buttons to do a combo and then destroy your opponent.

Seriously? I know you're trying to do something new with the game, but couldn't you have tried to stay A LITTLE AWAY FROM YOUR MAJOR FIGHTING FRANCHISE?!

Even a little?

Sigh.

Lol "To Execute this baby.. Press Up, Start, A, Y, Z, E, Double F, Hold R, Tap Y twice, Right, Left, Up, UP.. ah hell buy a gameshark!"

[Lenny: Smooth like Keith Stone]

I am still keeping some faith that its not going to be a Mortal Kombat fatality sequence of buttons. I am hoping that when they say you press a series of buttons, hopefully it just means like "hold L1 and press X" similar to a Smackdown vs Raw special move.

If they are gonna make us memorize "Run, Block, Run, Run, Low Kick" type of stuff, that will get tedious.

Just wait and see how many buttons you have to press to activate the Twisty Rockets

I think it's ironic that Owen Hart is the one who lands on his neck.

They wouldn't have said "a series of buttons" if it was just two buttons. At least they had the decency to not do this for all moves.

They should make TNA: Backstage Assault! "He's Got THE WEAPON!"

I was a huge mark for that game back in the day. Having said that, I'd hate to have to press Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Hold Square, Circle, R2 and wait for the screen to turn red just to execute a bodyslam or something.

I like the idea of finishers similar to MK... as long as they don't have the 20 button combos of MK3.

This game sounds like more and more of a disappointment the closer it gets to release...

Midway is in a no lose situation here. If this works, then they "dared to be different." If this doesn't, all they have to do is stay silent for about 48 hours. By that point, the Internet will say that the crappy game play was due to Vince Russo, Dutch Mantell, and the supposed de-push of the Motor City Machine Guns. All Midway has to do is stick their hands in their collective pockets and walk away.

HP. HK. HP. HK, HK, HP, HK, HP, HK, LP, LK.

Cyrax's brutality. No idea while I still know that.
