And if you find the fatalities hard to do, they damn sure won't show much.

I've managed to do them all and with the normal 360 controller, yea i found it easier when holding block (remember to let go tho when u before u press X, Y, B or A. Just take ure time, i know ppl tend to think u have to put the code in as fast as possible.

I find the distance for Sweep is about the same distance from ure apponent as when u start the round. and 1 step away is just a step back.

I have 360 and I have NO problem pulling them off. None.

The trick is the rhythm. It's totally different then other MK games. You have to wait a bit before pressing the next button.

Watch you character take a full single step. Thats the speed in which you should enter in the combo.

Took me like 30 times to actually figure this out. But on my 35th time, I had it down too a science. Now I have no troubles.

Slow and steady rips out the spine.

If you having trouble go to youtube and watch the fatalities. Notice the movement and speed of the characters.

To make myself more familiar with the fatalites/brutalities I looked them up on the internet and I printed them out and stuck them next to my TV, so whenever the chance comes up you can just look at the paper and do it confidently, also about the sweep I usually take about 2 steps back, and I dont block but it still works. But I have PS3 so I am not sure how to help with the 360 configuration, but I heard the Madcats controller is easy to use, I dont have proof but that is what I heard.
