******
GAUGES
******

While in battle, there are 3 gauges you'll see at the screen:

Health Sword (at the top of the screen)
Once it's completely soaked in blood, your character will die.

Unblockable Gauge (right beneath the Health Sword)
It charges when you hit your opponent and he/she is blocking your attacks.
Once it's fully charged and blinking, you can perform Unblockable
Move, which is the same for all the characters: b,f+P.

Special Sword (at the bottom of the screen)
It charges:
- when you hit your opponent or being hit by opponent
- when you use FP and FK without hitting the opponent
- when you use your special moves.
Once it's fully soaked in blood, you can unleash one of your SUPER MOVES...

You're welcome... :)

...and me, too. He's such a pain in the a**, but, on the other side, there's a DEBUG mode, to ease the pain.

Something wired happened to me while playing this game, I started playing and Music from a CD I had in the drive started playing. I checked if I had any other applications open that would be able to do this but NO!!! I seems the game plays songs off of whatever CD you have in your disk drive!!!

_r.u.s.s. 12-08-2010 07:45 PM

heh, there's a lot of games that played their music off the cd audiotracks. and it seems that this game also had it's audiotracks on the cd.. if you manage to find an image of this game you could probably hear the original music

The game seems to have been pulled for being on sale, however the link provided to Amazon.de links to two marketplace sellers. That is the same as someone listing the game for sale on eBay.
