Key
==========================================================================
======
Thrill Kill uses the D-Pad, the four main action buttons, and the two left
shoulder buttons. Dual Shock is supported, but analog control is not. The
button configuration can be customized, but I will use the default
configuration
below to define my abbreviations.
Square: QP (quick punch) LEFT: left on the D-Pad
Triangle: SP (strong punch) RIGHT: right on the D-Pad
X: QK (quick kick) UP: up on the D-Pad
Circle: SK (strong kick) DOWN: down on the D-Pad
L1: L1 (block)
L2: L2 (crouch)
From what I have been able to gather, the buttons I have labeled strong are not
necessarily stronger than the ones I have labeled quick. I have just given
them
those names to avoid confusion in the moves list.
Some more abbreviations that I use:
F: forward
B: back
QCF: quarter circle forwad
HCF: half circle forward
FCF: full circle forward
Charge indicates that you must hold the button down for a few seconds
jab: quick punch or kick
knockdown: punch or kick that knocks your opponent down
vulnerable: punch or kick that leaves your opponent vulnerable (like a dizzy)
==========================================================================
======
Basics
==========================================================================
======
Every fighter in Thrill Kill has unique special moves. However, there are also
certain moves universal to all the characters.
QP: jab F-F-QP: running knockdown
SP: jab F-F-SP: running knockdown
QK: jab F-F-QK: running knockdown
SK: jab F-F-SK: running knockdown
QP+QK: throw 1 L2+QP: crouching jab
SP+SK: throw 2 L2+SP: uppercut
QP+SP: high counter L2+QK: crouching jab
QK+SK: low counter L2+SK: leg sweep
QP+SK: position swap
QK+SP: taunt
Regular Kills (killing a fighter prior to enabling your thrill kill)
QP: Combo kill
SP: Knock head off kill
QK: Knock opponent against wall kill
SK: Knock opponent into air
Every fighter has a move associated with each action button that starts with F
and F-B. Since they vary, those moves are discussed in each fighter's
individual section. Some fighters also have variations on the crouching moves
which are also discussed in their sections.
To execute a thrill kill, enter the appropriate command while the camera is
panning around your fighter, but before the lightning animation starts. Once
the animation has started, you can release the buttons. Nothing needs to be
entered to perform the default thrill kill.
Every fighter has a thrill kill which is a combo kill. The combo kill
consists of a multi hit combo that ends with the loser exploding. Every
character also has a dance kill which makes your fighter (and in some cases
the victim as well) perform a dance. This is just for fun.

Secrets
==========================================================================
======
Thrill Kill's boss characters are Cain, Judas, and Marukka and they are all
fully
playable, except Marukka who can be played in every mode besides arcade. PSM
magazine reported that to release Cain the game had to be completed on medium
level, hard level to free Judas, and very hard for Marukka. I beat the game
just once on medium level and they were all released. Give it a try.
All the fighters have 4 immediately available outfits. The fifth outfit is
released by completing all of the fighter's moves in practice mode. The bosses
don't seem to have a fifth outfit. Once you have released the bonus outfit,
hold both L buttons when selecting your fighter. Here are descriptions of the
bonus outfits:
Tormentor - I don't know what the hell he's supposed to be, but he's green,
wears a Hawaiian shirt, and has sunglasses
Oddball - some sort of strange looking bear outfit
Belladonna - ride 'em cowgirl! Belladonna's got everything from the hat and
boots right on down to her Daisy Dukes!
Dr. Faustus - on his way to the AMA benefit dinner, the doctor sports a
tuxedo
complete with tophat
Imp - Imp the Pimp! Watch Imp become a black man, grow a huge afro, and don
Mr. T style gold chains. Beware of his very high platform shoes.
Yeah!
Violet - well, I saw in a magazine she has an alien outfit...but since I
can't
get her Spinal Snap to work, I can't tell you for sure
Mammoth - hey, kids, it's Mammoth the clown. Mammoth is stylin' in his
bright
clothes, party hat, and painted face
Cleetus - shiver me timbers, Phillip, it's Cleetus the pirate! Complete with
striped shirt, scarf hat and peg leg, Cleetus will keel haul you
I'll keep you updated on any new secrets I find.

Rumors
==========================================================================
======
This space is for rumors regarding Thrill Kill. At one time there were plenty
of rumors circulating about possible publishers for the game, but EA has denied
them all. All I have in this section now are a couple of unconfirmed moves and
secrets in the game.
Oddball's second thrill kill has been reported as L1+LEFT. I can't get this to
work.
Marukka's second thrill kill has been reported as QK+L1+RIGHT. I can't get
this
to work either.
Completing every fighter's moves in practice mode is supposed to release the
Gimp as a non-playable opponent only available in practice mode.
Completing the arcade mode on very hard difficulty is supposed to release the
Sacrificial Ruins and Dante's Cage backgrounds for versus mode. I have done
this and the backgrounds remain locked.

The End
==========================================================================
======
Well, that's it for now. This FAQ is written in my spare time (which I don't
have much of) so please be patient. I hope that it will be complete in a
couple
of weeks. If you know of anything else that should be added to this faq, feel
free to drop me an e-mail. Since there are so many combos in the game, I am not
planning on including them in this FAQ unless there is substantial demand. If
you have anything additional to contribute, I'll give you credit.
