The VC Advantage: Art of Advertising 2

Even more than the world depicted in the bizarre Street Fighter movie, or the outrageous horror-and-Zubaz presentation of the Mortal Kombat movie, we imagine this Art of Fighting 2 commercial is what a fighting game would look like in live action. Huge guys with terrible hair delivering awkward dialogue in semi-yelled monotone, standing totally still until launching into an unnatural-looking punch.
Even though they're awesome to play, fighting game-style combat in the real world would look less like an expert martial arts tournament and more like pro wrestling with less Spandex.
The VC Advantage is a weekly look at the secrets inside games -- not just cheat codes, but assorted trivia and oddities. We aim to bring back the feeling of the hint columns from game magazines, except when we do something else.

The funny thing is I don't think that's the end of the combo. I think the other player just died before it ended. If there was a live action movie of this I would go watch it.
By the way "RagingStormX" if you can actually do Geese Howard's Raging Storm combo then that's impressive. I've spent a lot of time in practice mode trying to do that combo and I utterly fail. I've never seen a super combo move that difficult to pull off before.
