Pro Tip of the Day - street fighter 2 http://protipoftheday.com/taxonomy/term/280/0 en Pro tip: Cheesing your way through Super Street Fighter II http://protipoftheday.com/node/507 <p>It might not be immediately obvious, but in the Street Fighter games, you're participating in a tournament. A tournament where you can (more or less) control the outcome.</p> <p>When your opponent is chosen, press Start on Controller 2 to bring in a New Challenger.</p> <div align="center"><img src="http://protipoftheday.com/sites/default/files/ssf2_cheese1.png" /></div> <p>Have Controller 2 pick the character you were fighting against, and pummel them mercilessly. Win the match, and you'll notice that you continue to the next stage.</p> <div align="center"><img src="http://protipoftheday.com/sites/default/files/ssf2_cheese2.png" /></div> <p>And since you know you'll be fighting the four Boss Characters, you can also do this to beat them early.</p> <div align="center"><img src="http://protipoftheday.com/sites/default/files/ssf2_cheese3.png" /></div> <p>Well, except for M. Bison. You have to beat him the old fashioned way, I'm afraid.</p> <p>Oh, and this works for all variants of Street Fighter 2.</p> arcade pro tip SNES street fighter 2 street fighter 2: champion edition super street fighter 2 Wed, 25 Aug 2010 12:12:02 +0000 Will 507 at http://protipoftheday.com Pro tip: A Quick 2-Hit Combo for Guile in Street Fighter 2 http://protipoftheday.com/node/290 <p>Today, I'm going to share one a quick-'n'-easy two hit combo with Street Fighter's Guile.</p> <p>First, you're going to want to hold Back on the controller to charge for the Sonic Boom. Then press Forward and Weak punch to throw it.</p> <div align="center"><img src="http://protipoftheday.com/sites/default/files/sonicboom1.jpg" /></div> <p>Keep holding Forward to walk toward your opponent, trailing your projectile, after it hits,</p> <div align="center"><img src="http://protipoftheday.com/sites/default/files/sonicboom2.jpg" /></div> <p>follow it up with a Fierce Punch.</p> <div align="center"><img src="http://protipoftheday.com/sites/default/files/sonicboom3.jpg" /></div> <p>Done right, you'll be able to hit your opponent with both of them for a quick 2-hit combo!</p> <div align="center"><img src="http://protipoftheday.com/sites/default/files/sonicboom4.jpg" /></div> <p>And, if you can back your opponent in the corner he won't slide back so far when the initial hit smacks him, giving him less time to recover and avoid the second hit.</p> <p>Since this is kind of tough to show the timing in picture form, I've created an animated .gif <a href="http://protipoftheday.com/sites/default/files/sf2_sonicboom.gif">here</a>(4.5MB) that shows it in action.</p> <p>Oh, and it also works for Street Fighter 4.</p> arcade pro tip SNES street fighter 2 street fighter 4 technique xbox 360 Mon, 26 Oct 2009 12:21:09 +0000 Will 290 at http://protipoftheday.com
