Well, they streamlined the controls with just the three attacks, and there is a normal contol mode and a newbie control mode that whips out combos easily. As for the difficulty being turned down, I would probably say that it was. The easiest way to tell is to stand still. The easy mode rarely has the enemy attack at all.
I usually find a lot of my matches end in the old 'time out' on normal setting... I need to get more aggressive.![]()
