[aqualung]

it took like a week or so playing with my friends i think?

nice system faq man, good read =D

edit: o yeah, and garouden twist or fist, is the sequel too, garouden: breakblow if i remember right.

Awesome stuff, thanks for the FAQ!

I’d love a Garouden/Baki sequel with today’s graphics, that’d be sick. If the game had the Tekken engine, that’d probably get more people into the game and make people think more of it than just a simple button mashing game but I like the way Garouden plays currently, it plays differently from other fighters and that’s what I like about it. I dunno about it playing like Hnk, lol, though that’d be hilarious.

How many Ex missions have you guys done? My brother and I are stuck on Great Tatsumi’s one, lol.

I finished all of them, which can easily be done using the swap character trick (holding R1 while selecting the story mission, and in EX missions, you play as Hanma Yujiro, which is pretty much instant win so long as you don’t mess up). Right after using Great Tatsumi is Shozan Matsuo VS Hanma Yujiro btw, which is the last one.

As for Namco getting a hold of the game… it would be cool so long as they don’t change the gameplay system, especially into a ridiculous juggle fest (which I kind of loathe these days, which made me 3D fighting games like Garouden and UFC Undisputed a lot more). And yeah, if this game gets an HD update in a next gen console, it’ll be epic win and an instant buy for me!

Sorry for the double post again, but I have a few questions:

1. Does anyone know what the exact command for Fujimaki Jyuzo’s and Soichiro Izumi’s mid punch counter multi-throw? I’ve kinda just winged it when I successfully pulled those off
2. Another purpose of Jyohei Tsutsumi’s ‘A’ (Circle button) breathing. I do know for a fact that you can quickly cancel Tsutsumi’s strings by pushing ‘A’ so that you can pull off a different attack or string afterwards, but does it also have other effects? Like does let your next attack do additional damage and such?
3. I kept getting the word “Break” when I translated a few Garouden-related info via online translators, so anyone knows what’s the “break” property does? It is part of the game’s title after all (“Breakblow”). Are these attacks like Tanba’s 8+A or Tatsumi’s 8+A, which can has a good chance to do hitstun even at green health?
4. Do you experience slowdown in training and tutorial mode? The frame rate with the training mode seems to be bad due to the menus, but thankfully, it only seems to happen in training mode.

It’s pretty hard to confirm these things without being able to play the game at hand (like I mentioned before, my Jap PS2 is broken).

Anyway, a vid as usual lol:

I’m trying to get some Garouden vids off of Nico Nico Douga atm so that I can upload more in my youtube channel.
