Soulcalibur IV

Also known as: Soul Calibur IV, Soul Calibur 4, Soulcalibur 4, SCIV

The best special attacks EVER

Video: 16 years of hurt in one scorching montage

Words: Justin Towell, GamesRadar UK

Hadouken! Shoryuken! Shinryuken! You know exactly what we mean, even if the words themselves are a mystery. Special attacks are what make fighting games great. But learning all those command strings can be such a chore so we thought we'd save you the hassle and bring the best ones to you in one awesome video.

We've collected the best moves from some 30 games on consoles old and new. How many have you done?

Do be warned, though - there is some blood, a little light impaling and more than one irreperably damaged spine ahead (all virtual of course), so that's why there's an age gate. Enjoy :)

You know, when I was a kid, I thought Ryu was saying 'A frightening spoon kick' when he performed his Hurricane Kick.

I can't believe a montage of the best fighting game special moves doesn't have any from Rival Schools and/or Project Justice!!! Those moves were batshit insane :S
