INTRODUCTION ******************************************************************************* This game is just like the Mortal Kombat series of games except it has a cartoony style and it's packed with various one-liners. As far as I can tell, 'American Dad Vs. Family Guy: Kung Fu' uses the real actor's voices but even if it didn't, it sounds like it. I'm actually surprised how fun this game is, even if it is a button masher, so when I saw that it was listed on GameFAQs I just had to write for it. http://www.americandadvsfamilyguy.com/ Is the official website for the game, although it can be found elsewhere on the internet by typing the name of the game into Google. ******************************************************************************* 3. ABOUT THE GAME ******************************************************************************* Of course there's bound to be a couple of people out there who've never heard of Family guy or American Dad so I'll try to explain briefly. Each one is a popular animated cartoon series similar to the Simpsons, and with notable differences. American Dad and Family Guy tend to be competing with each other and you rarely find someone who enjoys both of them the same amount. Needless to say, it was inevitable that a game of this sort would spring up somewhere. The game pits you as one character from either of the two series' and you are stuck in the middle of a 2D arena where you battle one other opponent. After that opponent is KO'd (knocked out), you move onto the next level and you take on another character. After battling every character, you 'win' the game and are taken back to the main menu. General character controls are as follows: Arrow key left - Move character left Arrow key right - Move character right Arrow key down - Block incoming attack Arrow key up - Jump W - Fierce kick S - Light Punch A - Light kick D - Fierce punch These controls can be mixed together to form special combination moves (see the next two sections). In addition to all the Family Guy and American Dad characters, there is an extra character that you'll have to beat at the end of the game before you can play as him. Seeing as he doesn't fit into any of the sections below, I'm going to list his moves here: --- Ryu --- MOVES Dragon Punch - Right, Right, Fierce punch Hurrican Kick - Left, Left, Light kick Fireball - Right, Left, Light punch For those who don't know, Ryu is from the 'Street Fighter' series. ******************************************************************************* 4. FAMILY GUY CHARACTERS ******************************************************************************* ----- Peter ----- MOVES Axe Handle - Right, Right, Fierce punch Double Kick - Left, Left, Light kick Blue Angel - Right, Left, Light punch Bottle Throw - Left, Right, Left, Light punch Headbutt - Left, Right, Fierce punch STRATEGY Peter is a good character with strong offensive attacks. Unfortunately, if you are fighting someone who attacks mainly while jumping, you're in for a problem as you can't block them that easily. However, you can jump back out of the way if this happens. ---- Lois ---- MOVES Roundhouse Kick - Right, Right, Fierce punch Double Kick - Left, Left, Light kick Three Sword Strike - Right, Left, Light punch STRATEGY Lois is extremely good as she replaces all of the normal kicking attacks with a swipe of her sword. The sword swipe is extremely difficult to dodge, so use this to your advantage. ------ Stewie ------ MOVES Missile Launch - Right, Right, Fierce punch Plasma Laser - Left, Left, Light kick STRATEGY Stewie's blocking skills are very low so you might want to stand well clear of your opponent's attacks. His ranged weapons are handy as they deliver a large amount of damage and you stand no chance of being hurt in the process. The only downside to these attacks is that they need about five seconds to reload and recharge after each use before you can use them again. ----- Chris ----- MOVES Fierce Tears - Right Right, Fierce punch Panic Attack - Right, Left, Light punch Karatou - Left, Left, Light kick STRATEGY Chris is quite a weak character. The only attack of his that's actually worth anything is the panic attack. Basically, Chris makes a strange screeching sound which deals a LOT of damage. Just bear in mind that it needs to be recharged after every use. ----- Brian ----- MOVES Cane Bash - Right, Right, Fierce punch Pimp Ring Punch - Left, Left, Light kick Cane Kick - Right, Left, Light punch STRATEGY Brian is the dog. As a dog, he has increase alertness which means that he's good at dodging attacks. His cane bash is a good quick attack that hits for a fair amount of damage. I'd avoid the cane kick as it's weak and is no match for the blocking skills of other characters. --- Meg --- MOVES Claw Slash - Right, Right, Fierce punch Hail Storm - Left, Left, Light kick STRATEGY Meg is a good character for powerful hits but is a bit on the slow side so she may not be the best choice for you if you want to make it all the way through the game. ******************************************************************************* 5. AMERICAN DAD CHARACTERS ******************************************************************************* ---- Stan ---- MOVES Grenade - Right, Right, Fierce punch Handgun - Left, Left, Light kick STRATEGY Stan's projectile weapon skills are useful when fighting a character with only physical attacks, as you don't need to be near your opponent while attacking, eliminating the need for blocking incoming blows. Watch out against characters with ranged attacks. ----- Roger ----- MOVES Tiara Toss - Left, Left, Light kick Cigarrette Flick - Right, Right, Fierce punch STRATEGY In my opinion, Roger is a weak character in this game. His attacks don't do much damage and they are very easy to block. If youu feel the need to use Roger,keep your finger near the 'block' button at all times. ------ Hayley ------ MOVES Burning Bra - Right, Right, Fierce punch Pepper Spray - Left, Left, Light kick STRATEGY Pepper Spray is the most powerful attack out of the two on offer. It takes a moment or two to recharge, so it's best to use Burning Bra if you want to attack quickly. ----- Klaus ----- MOVES 3rd Degree Burn - Right, Right, Fierce punch Electric Shock - Left, Left, Light kick STRATEGY As you'd probably imagine, a fish with a helmet on isn't the most powerful character. Electric Shock is a good attack to use against characters that aren't wearing some sort of armour (so no using this on Stewie) but if you try and use it on an armoured character, it'll have almost no effect. ----- Steve ----- MOVES Finger Punch - Right, Right, Light punch Chopstick Throw - Left, Left, Light kick STRATEGY Steve is a strong character and Chopstick Throw is his best attack. It can hit characters without you having to put Steve in danger. It takes time to recharge though, so don't expect to go through the whole game on this attack alone. -------- Francine -------- MOVES Torch Bash - Right, Right, Fierce punch Fire Breath - Left, Left, Light kick STRATEGY Torch Bash is a strong close-range attack that'll cause lots of damage to any character smaller than Francine. Fire breath is also only effective if the character it's being used on is of moderate height. For smaller enemies, you'll need to keep using Torch Bash and hope for the best. ******************************************************************************* 6. HINTS AND TIPS ******************************************************************************* - At the beginning of each round, force your opponent back to the edge of the screen, This will give them no room to move around, rendering some of their ranged attacks useless. - If you hold down the Block button, the character will only block attacks for a short period of time and after that time is up, attacks will hit normally. - While your opponent is recharging his/her attacks, take the chance and hit them with a couple of quick attacks. - Keep your distance if you want to block attacks. Blocking doesn't work if you are too close. - Ranged attacks are good against characters that have none. This way you can keep well out of the way from attacks and you can cause lots of damage. - Vary your attacks. Even though most characters only have two combos, there are many different moves to pull off seperately. - If you suspect a quick attack from your opponent, press the Block button anyway. It's better safe than sorry. ******************************************************************************* 7. MULTIPLAYER ******************************************************************************* As well as the single player game, you can also play against a friend on the same computer. Load up the game and select '2 Player Versus Mode' from the main menu. Player One gets to select his character first, and then Player Two gets to do the same. Player One Controls: W, S, A, D - Attack buttons F - Jump C - Move left V - Block B - Move right Player Two Controls: L, Comma, Period, / - Attack buttons Arrow key left - Move left Arrow key right - Move right Arrow key up - Jump Arrow key down - Block ******************************************************************************* 8.
