Bruisers are characters who depend on their fist and realize that most of life's problems can be solved with a punch. Typically bruisers don't fight with any real style or technique, instead they tend to simply rely on raw strength.
The Jiralhanae are called Brutes by the UNSC. As a result of the expulsion of the elites from the Covenant, they serve as the primary antagonists during the events of Halo 2 and 3.
A daedric creature associated with the Daedric Prince Mehrunes Dagon. Its head reflects physical damage.
A quick burst of speed that propels the player slightly forward or backwards.
"Hand to hand. It is the basis of all combat." -Gray Fox
In the Brütal Legend universe, a society that where raised in the mines to do all their work with their thick skulls. They can be spotted by their massive necks developed from the constant head banging.
An effect or ability that pushes an object or person away. Often found in, but not limited to, explosive weapons.
From Beat-em-ups to fighting games to modern FPS, one dude hitting another has made an enjoyable pastime.
Professional wrestlers have appeared in loads of games over the years.
Rhydon is a ground/rock-type pokemon first found in Pokemon Red/Blue. Rhydon is the evolved form of Rhyhorn, its body larger and more flexible and its horn sharper and longer - better able to pierce opponents in head-butt attacks. It evolves into Rhyperior when traded while holding a Protector.
The act of pushing one's way forcibly with the use of one's shoulder. One of Wario's signature moves.
Like a critical hit, this is a special action invoked from certain attacks in games or caused randomly on attacks by a character's statistic. It causes opponents to lose the ability to attack back for a certain period of time, and usually invokes the hit character to go into a special animation.
While piledrivers, clotheslines, and suplexes might seem at home in wrestling games, many professional wrestling moves have found their way into other video game genres. Brawlers and fighting games are commonly home to these moves, with Mike Haggar's piledriver being a classic example.
