Glitch: Hovering opponent:
In Practice mode, choose Voldo. Do his standard A + G throw. As soon as it connects, pause game play and turn the first player's weapons off. This will cause him to fall to the ground but the opponent will still be going through the motions of the throw, causing him to hover in the air for a moment. This works with everyone's throw, but Voldo's can be seen better. You can even start an unarmed throw, then give back and take away their weapon quickly to make them do a ghost throw. [Screenshot]
