There’s No Escaping from These High-Execution Balrog Combos in Ultra Street Fighter IV

Balrog has some of the craziest corner carry in Ultra Street Fighter IV thanks to his ability to combo from a headbutt into his Ultra 1. But the Boxer, much like Sakura, can also push opponents all the way across the screen if he chooses to keep combos going the old-fashioned way with plenty of one frame links. Who needs an Ultra when you’ve got style and execution on your side?

Execution is definitely on Balrog’s side in this new video from cjbqulix. The combo creator even claims that the footage you’re about to see holds some of the highest execution combos that they’ve ever created, and it’s easy to see why when there seems to be no end to the punches.

General: Call It Shallow, But Looks Matter…at Least in Our Games

Call It Shallow, But Looks Matter...at Least in Our Games

One of the first things that many gamers look for when a new MMO is in development, is how much customization they will given for their characters. We look for body sliders, facial models, hairstyles, eye color varieties, racial models and many, many others. We want our characters, these pixelated extensions of ourselves, to mean something, to be a true in-game representation of how we see them ‘alive’ in the world.

Nintendo Shares Previews of Unlockable Super Smash Bros. Characters on Wii U

One quick word of warning before we move into the meat of this article: if you are waiting to grab the latest installment of Super Smash Bros. on Wii U and have kept away from the spoilers provided by the handheld release, do not read any further, as this will just be one big pile of secret characters you may not want to know about before you’re able to get your hands on the game.

You have been warned.

For those of you that are still here, welcome! Nintendo recently released a handful of new images depicting unlockable characters Ness, Falco, Wario, Dr. Mario, and Dark Pit as they appear in Super Smash Bros. upcoming home console release.
