Switch characters during match
Use the following to switch between characters in the
middle of the game. For example if you choose Cable, Ryu, then Ken, but later in
the second stage you want Ryu to appear first -- hold L for the second character
and R for the third character at the versus screen.
Change team order
The order of your fighters will appear before a versus
match, with "1", "2", or "3". You can select the first and second fighters of
your team, and thus change the entire team order. To select the first fighter,
press LP + LK for the character marked "1", MP + MK for the character marked
''2'', or HP + HK for the character marked ''3''. Then, press the same button
combos to select the second fighter. Press Start to continue.
Multiple character selection
Unlock every costume and character to chose multiple
people. For example, player one could chose three Charlie's and the other player
could also chose three Charlie's.
Cheaper hidden fighters
Exit and enter the shop screen until the price of the
hidden fighters are lower
Change clock in background
To change the time of the clock in the background of the
clock level, simply change the Xbox's system time.
Continue attacking
Press Start immediately after winning the match to move
almost everywhere and have the ability to continue hitting the defeated
character.
114-hit combo
Select Gambit, Iron Man, and War Machine, then get a level 3 hyper combo gauge
and do all their hyper combos (L + R). It should do a 114-hit combo. If not, try
starting the Hyper Combo with another person.
Infinite chain supers
Note: This trick only works in training mode. Set
the combo gauge to infinity in the training menu. Then, start a super and start
another one. This can be done an unlimited amount of times. This works best with
characters who have beam supers.
Easy special
When your special meter is at 3 or higher, press L + R to do any character's
special.
90% damage
Choose Iron Man, War Machine, and Cable as your team, and make sure you choose
projectile as their ability. Charge your super meter higher then 3, and press L
+ R (default for partner A and B actions). The result should be all three of
your team members will use their projectile super move, which will take care of
the opposition provided they do not block. Note: An advanced part of this trick
is to wait until your opponent uses his partner in battle, then use the attack.
The result is devastating.
Abyss' first stage
Defeat Abyss with any time limit in arcade and score
attack modes. His first stage will be unlocked in training and versus modes.
Defeating Abyss
Select Cable. For Abyss' first form, just block his attacks and then press Y to
shoot. Repeat this until he dies. For his second form, distance yourself far as
possible and shoot. Repeat until he dies. For his third form, just use Cables
Hyper Viper. It takes off 90-95% of his life in one blast and will be a 115-130
hit combo. Then, just hit him once or twice with any attack to defeat him.
To defeat Abyss in his second form, choose Cable. Keep shooting Abyss with the pistol and keep shooting till you have level 1 on the gauge. Execute Cable's Hyper Viper Combo. This should kill him -- if not keep repeating this pattern. The works if you are fast enough to kill him while he performs his short range attacks.
Choose Megaman, Cable, and Cyclops. Play under the easy or medium difficulty setting. At Abyss, use Megaman then jump behind him and shoot. During his second form, use Megaman and continue shooting at him. You should have a level three power bar by now. At Abyss' third form, wait. He always dives down before attacking. When he reappears, do a Triple Hyper combo. If the game is set on very easy and high damage, Abyss should die in one hit.
Easy points
You
can get ten points a minute if you go to training mode, choose a character and
opponent, then leave the game on for about five hours. Note: Do not pause
the game.
Plug in a second controller, go to options, change the time to 30 seconds, and turn up the damage. Go to versus mode, turn the handicap down on controller two, and fight. You will get 100 points for each match.
Successfully complete all survivor mode, with any EX set if needed. Attempt to create an EX groove greater than 4000 points. Answer "Yes" and the game will allow you to do so.
To get easy points in arcade mode, fight up to Abyss in any difficulty on high damage. Your best difficulty setting is recommended. Once at Abyss, intentionally die on purpose multiple times. Continue, then die again. You will get 100 points every time a continue is used. When you finally choose to defeat Abyss, you will also get 50 points times the difficulty setting.
Enter the options screen. Select "Game Option" and set your difficulty bar high, choose the Turbo 2 speed, and have unlimited time. Put the damage bar on high. Go to arcade mode and choose any character with Cable (for example, War Machine, B.B. Hood, and Cable). When you begin at the first stage, make sure Cable's out first. Keep shooting with the pistol until your third opponent's life bar is half full. At this time your level gauge should be past 3. Use it at the correct moment and you will see more than 80 hit(s), plus the Perfect. You now have more than 300,000,000 points. Repeat this for the rest of the game .When you get to Abyss, be sure not to have him defeat one of your characters. Just keep shooting Cable's pistol until you get to his last form. On his final form, when Abyss shows up again, make sure your level gauge is at 3 or more to blast away.
One hit kill
Choose Juggernaut, Iron Man, and BB Hood (in that order). Put them all on their
recommended assist types. Get 3 Hyper Combo bars and link them all together
(L=R). It should kill the opponent in one hit. This move was tested on Cable, a
medium damage taker.
Choose Juggernaut, Incredible Hulk, and Zangeif. When at level 3, let Juggernaut be your active character, get very close, and press L + R to make them all do their hyper combos. This will instantly kill your opponent's character. Note: This attack best works when your opponent is in a corner
Save Points:
This is a handy tip for saving more points so you can unlock more stuff: If
you go into the shop and he costs 2,000 points, simply exit the shop and
re-enter, if you see Mega Man again, he could be reduced to as much as 500
points.
In-game reset:
Press Start + Select during game play.
Evil Sakura and Zhangfei:
Press Down, Down/Left, Left, Back, LK. They will have the same moves plus
extra. For example, if you do Sakura's first special, instead of her doing her
combo she will do a special beam like Ryu.
Akuma: Demon Rage:
When at level 3, press LP(2), Right, LK, HP. This is a technical move.
Cable: Defeating Son Son:
Select Cable. When Son Son does her super into a big monkey, quickly do
Cable's Hyper Viper on her. It will do 50% to 75% damage.
Dan: Super Taunt:
Note: This takes one level of your HC Gauge. While holding LK, perform two
quarter circles Forward, then press Start. It does no damage, but is funny to
watch. It is basically two and a quarter circles and the Taunt button.
Dhalsim: Control Yoga Flame:
Choose Dhalsim and any other two characters. Get the H.C. meter gauge higher
then level 1, then do Dhalsim's Yoga Flame. You can change direction of the
flame by pressing Up or Down.
Hayato: Profile:
Hayato's plasma combo variations make him a strong combo player, but most
special moves lack quick recovery time and leave him wide open for an opponent
to counter. Hayato's sword gives him decent reach, but only an above -average to
expert player should select him up for assist type -- use his expansion type.
Hayato: Combos:
Thirteen-Hit Plasma -Sword Combo: Get your hyper gauge to level one. Jump in
deep, press LP, while still in the air press LK,LP, LK, HP, Down, Down/Right,
HP, Down, Down/Right [LP, HP] for seven hits.
Dark Knight: Get your special bar up to three, then press LP, HP, Back, LK, HK
quickly. Do this when no more than half a screen away from your opponent. This
special can take up to one half life alone.
Hayato has three basic combo skills that can be used in the game. No combo
gauges will be used when the skills are used. Either press Left, LP, LP, LP, LP;
or Left, LP, LP, LP, HK, LP, LP; or Left, HP, LP, HP, HP, HP.
Marrow: Break the camera:
Have Marrow use the Bone Burst Hyper Combo as the finishing move for the
last of the three opponents. She will throw one of her bones at the screen,
breaking the camera.
San San: One hit kill on Spider-Man:
Use San San's Eating special and have the damage on high. Spider-Man can be
defeated with one special.
Tyrant: Blow him up:
Send out the Tyrant. After he is done with his combo and starts yelling,
press the combo for her rocket launcher and he will explode.
Wolverine: Longer Berserker Claw:
When playing as Wolverine and you are about to yse Berserker Claw, execute
it with HP and tap it repeatedly. Note: The attack will not work every time you
execute a Berserker Claw in fight. After doing a Berserker Claw, wait awhile,
then do it again. It will not work two times in a row.
Stronger combos:
While Team Hyper Combos are easy and powerful, delayed combos are at most
times much more powerful, though they are much more difficult due to timing it
to where you get the maximum power. For example, with Megaman, War Machine, and
Iron Man, if you do their team combo it will do about a 40 to 60 hit combo; On
the other hand, if you do each of their combos delayed and execute it correctly,
you should be able to get from 75 to over 100 hits with one solid shot. In order
to do a delayed Hyper Combo, have your first character do their combo. Then as
they are doing the Hyper Combo execute your next character's Hyper Combo. Then
while that one is executing, use your third character's Hyper Combo. It is all
about timing and may require some practice.
Over 80-hit combo:
Select Cable, B.B.Hood, and War Machine. Use all their specials at once and
it may do 80 to 184 hits.
Over 86-hit combo:
Choose Tronne Bonne, Servbot, and Guile. Have level a 3 meter and have Guile
in play. Press L1 + L2 to do a combo doing 86 to 160 hits.
110-hit combo:
At the character selection screen, choose Cable, Gambit, and B.B Hood. You
will have to unlock B.B Hood and Gambit by buying them in the Secret Factor.
During arcade mode, get up to at least to level 3 or higher. When you do, press
L1 + L2 and all three of them will do their Hyper Combo specials. This combo
will do at least 110 hits and a lot of damage. It works better when you are
close to your opponent.
115-hit combo:
Select Cable, T. Bonne, and Chalsm (in that order), then get the level gauge
up to at least 3. Press L1 + L2 to do a hyper combo and will unleash a powerful
blow. Note: Try to keep the enemy on the ground. Also, this will not work every
time. It will happen about half of the time.
126-hit combo:
Select War Machine, Iron Man, and B.B. Hood, then get at least a level 3
gauge. Press L1 + L2 to do a hyper combo and will unleash a powerful blast.
Also, try to keep the enemy on the ground. The combo should do at least 126 and
sometimes up to 140 hits.
200-hit combo:
Choose Cable, Iron Man, and B.B. Hood and get your level 3 hyper combo
(usually with punches in the air). Wait until your opponent gets a striker out,
then press L1 + L2. The combo should do at least 150-220 hits.
Unlimited chain supers:
Note: This trick only works in training mode. Set the combo gauge to
infinity in the training menu. Then, start a super and start another one. This
can be done an unlimited amount of times. This works best with characters who
have beam supers.
Easy special:
When your special meter is at 3 or higher, press L1 + R1 to do any
character's special.
50%-65% damage:
Chose Ryu, Captain Commando, and War Machine (recommended in that order).
Wait until you get three levels in your Hyper Gauge, then let lose your hyper
combos with L1 + L2 (or L1 + R1).
95% damage:
Depending on the damage level, the following trick may also result in a one
hit kill. If set on 3 or maximum, it will result in a one hit kill. If set on 2,
it will be a 95% damage attack. Choose Spiral, Hayato, and Silver Samurai. Get
to level 3 or more to use the hyper combo for all of them (L1 + R1). Have Spiral
out first, then get 3 or maximum level. Yse the hyper combo and they all should
come out and do their moves. Hayato should do the attack where he hits the
ground and energy beams appear. Spiral should do the attack where she changes
into every character and hits the opponent. Then, Silver Samurai should appear
and slash at the opponent.
Hint: 90%-100% damage:
This trick works well on Abyss. Select Cabal, Wolverine, And Megaman, in any
order. Wolverine usually works best first. Use Berserker Barrage to take out the
first form quickly, then Cabal to waste the second form -- just keep shooting.
Use the recommended assist types. By the time the third form appears, use your
level 3 plus Hyper Combo (L1 + L2 type), and the result will kill or be very
close to killing anyone.
Take turns using special:
Choose any three desired characters. When your gauge meter is at level 3 or
more, make sure your first character is out. Let your first character use their
special. It is usually Down, Down/Right, Right, R1. In the middle of your first
character's special, press the same buttons to do another special. The first
character will leave, and your second character will come out and do their
special in the same combo. Press the special buttons again, and your second
character will leave, and your third character will come out and do their
special in the same combo. You may not get as many hits as bringing all three of
them out, but it looks better.
Breaking the house in the clock tower stage:
In the clock tower stage, use Spider-Man's special of flying kicks and
punches when the opponent has low life so when he dies he can break the house.
Note: You have to make sure that Spider-Man pushes him to the right.
You can also break the house in the clock tower stage with Juggernaut using his
Juggernaut Punch. You must push your enemy to the right when the enemy has
little life remaining.
Defeating blocking opponents:
Select Cable as your first character with Dr. Doom with Anti-Air Assist as
your partner. Keep using Cable's Pistol and Dr. Doom's Assist move at the same
time. Your opponent's life gauge will decrease.
