III Introduction (Review): Total Score: 8/10
Yes, while 989 is trying to accomplish a game in each
category, it has finished it's Blood and Gore fest, Cardinal
Syn. Almost everything in this game is done well! Except for
a few flaws in the Gameplay department, this game can glow with
the color red! So, this game didn't get that much hype, sure 989
Studio's was in there early stages, this game still looks and feels
like a true fighting game.
The Graphics in this game are well-done if anything. Graphics seem
to always be a flaw in any fighting game, but this game makes an
exception. The FMV's in this game are as good as you will ever see
in an PSX game, nicely done, with the blood and everything. The
backgrounds in this game are also done nicely, with the button that
enables you to ''run'' all over the place, the backgrounds aren't
these Round boring things, some backgrounds are set on a gold-course
like state. In the backgrounds, numerouse things will pop up
(spikes, coal carts, etc.) that will sometimes knock you off course,
or just take damage away from you. These things seem confusing at
first for one reason, when you first start playing the game, sometimes
you will not even see these things pop out due to the positioning of
the camera. So if you have one shred of life left, and one of these
things pops out and kills you, you will not know the hell just killed
you. The character designs are also done really well. Being the Most
original character stories and character designs, this games graphics
are done at a nice quality.
Sound and Music in this game are also tuned right. The music seeming
to take place in Medievil Ages, and the sounds of Crashing Swords, and
shields all seem to be in the right moment. The character's voices and
little taunts are OK, but get a tad too tedious and annoying at times
( I swear, If I ever hear Hecklar laugh again, I'll just spit). The
sound of the fatlities are also nice and violent. Almost makes you
want MK5 to come out now!
The control is one of the flaws in this game. At first, it will seem
buggy to you, hard to move around, and hard to land descent combos.
But when you get the R2 button nealed down (the button that enables
you to run freely among the stage), this game will seem like a peice
of cake. Before you look at a stratedgy guide, and see a huge combo
like this: S, D, T, S, S, S, T, O, don't be fooled, the combos and
fatality codes work easily if you just work at it for a minute or
two, there easy to memorize, and not to hard to perform.
This games Gameplay is one of it's best features. Having some options
and extra add-ons I've never seen in a fighting game before, this game
is easy to control, and easy to play with. Like I said before, the
backgrounds are set and a ''dog-leg'' type angel, so if you want herbs
or magic power, you will HAVE to use the R2 button. The fatalities in
this game make this game ears in Mature rating. If you've never seen
such a violence-filled, gore infested, and graphic way of chopping off
someones limbs, then go ahead and tell me. Although once you've see a
fatality, you've seen them all pretty much. They consist of having you
character doing a lightingening speed fast combo, and then chopping off
some limbs, or split them in half, all the characters just have
different way off doing the same fatalities. If you like just going
face-to-face with your opponent action, then this game will make you
proud. If you like having to run around and do a mind-spliting
combo, the this games for you.
The story though, could also do some tuning up on if they ever intend
of bringing out a Sequel. A woman by the name of ''Syn'', is here to
take, steal, and have the sacred Swords of Cardinal. Doign this, about
20 fighters are outraged of this because they wanted there own futires
with these magical sword. So, ''Syn'' holds a tournament for the
fighters. Who ever comes out on top, takes one of the three swords. To
add some weirdo side-stories, some characters also hold grudges against
each other, making interesting little spoofs here and there.

People who are violence actaivist, and people who have soft-stomachs
are the only ones who should stay away. Still, an awesome game from
the once dead, 989 Studios.
----------------
Finkster is aWell all around quick and Agile Character to use.
His combos are very effective, and moves/magic are not that hard
hard to do. His stage is any annoying one, with electricty coming
from the pillars. His point is pretty awful though. His story can
do without, and his ending is as just as bad. The reason why I
picked him, though, is he is a great beginners character. And
he is very quick.
==========================================================================
1. STORY TO FINKSTER...
Finkster is your common pety thief. He loves to
Rob people on the spot, or just plainly steal right
out of people homes. He sells these good to trade
dealers and in return, he gets sweet-cold mulahs.
Once he hears the Book of Knowledge is still in
existence, he sets out on his adventure. Knowing
he might as well be killed, Finkster accpets the
challenges ahead. Once he gets his pawes on the
Book of Knowledge, he will sell it to the highest
bidder at E-bay. Nah, he'll just sell it off at
the flee market in spain.
==========================================================================
2. STRETEGIES to Finkster...
Finkster is one of the most agile characters in
the game. Use his speed and everlasting combo's
to your advantage. One of his most effective moves
in his arsenal, is the Slice'n'Kick, or the
Rolling Stab. These moves can stin your opponent
to the point where you can finish his fatality on
them.
If you do not how fatalites work in this game, they
seem to work as a huge combo (like the Brutalities in
MK). You can only do them in the second or Third rounds
(or any rounds if you have the cheat on). It is a
quick, and painless death (after you get the combo
finished).
One of the most better startegies or characteristics
to Finkster, is the fact that he is very hard to block
or counter-strike. This making the enemy wide open for
a great move or a finisher.
One of Finksters greatest flaws is the fact that he
is very weak, and get considerable ammounts of damage
for an easy 3 hit combo. But this can be easilly avoided
if your a player that loves to block and cpunter-strike.
Oh yeah.. did I tell you finkster has a great counter-
strike attack too? It takes away a lot of health. And can
be done easily.
==========================================================================
3. MOVES For Finkster
It is best when his moves are performed after your

the game with Combo's, Finkster's greatest hits are
when the enmy is down on the ground or when they're

5. FATALITIY COMBO'S for Finkster
Finksters Fatality Combos are really something
to see. They are one of the most bloody and most
graphic in the game. And to top that, they are
even easier to do than most. You can perfrom
these during the 2'nd or 3'rd round of the
battle. If you perform them on the first, it
will still take away lots of damage.

6. ENDING for Finkster
After defeating Kron, Finkster goes to
the altar, takes the book, and leaves. He
heads back to his home located in the
sewers of the city, an puts the book in
some library looking place. He then looks
at the screen and gives a happy little smirk.
==========================================================================
