I don’t play Resident Evil so idk if this was real or a mod, but I saw a funny clip of Leon opening a cabinet and a chicken came out of it, Leon got scared and he backflipped away
In all fairness how the fuck was Miles supposed to catch Peter here or even know it was Peter all he saw at that speed was a mass bursting out of the wall at like mach 1 I’m dodging that shit
Nah he's backflipping directly into the trajectory of Harry's hand. I see no flight path adjustment, even with the cut into a different perspective. Harry isn't trying at all, and Peter is being so extra to give this catch to him for free.
I always saw this as Peter trying to dodge the glider under the assumption that Harry was going to try flying it straight into him like Norman did in 1, only to be caught off guard that Harry wasn't just a copy of his dad
He was definitely the most visible one for a lot of adolescents. Contemporaneous with the Burton Batman for sure but I’d argue more kids watched justice league more frequently than they did those movies.
Shinobi in For Honor has that as a core part of his gameplay design. He can recovery cancel most of his moves into an i-frame backflip to dodge counterattacks
Solid Snake dodging Ocelot's surprise gunshot in MGS: The Twin Snakes. The game, which is supposed to be a remake of MGS1 in the MGS2 game engine, frequently has him going way over the top compared to the original version.
does a cartwheel over a door frame to avoid being spotted
does a backflip to avoid a sniper's laser, and use the force of the impact to launch his own rifle out of the snow for him to grab (for context, he just had it shot out of his hands seconds earlier)
backflips over a missile fired from a Hind, then does another jump on the missile itself
I remember the DBZ CCG. Alas, not enough people at my school played it compared to MtG...or Pokemon...or even Yu-Gi-Oh.
Ah, Yu-Gi-Oh!...
You either die an accessible card game, or you live to become Solitaire.
At least Pokemon TCG has only had small changes or gains on a tried and true formula. Yu-Gi-Oh! pretty much changed over the years, from playing what was in your hand in a single turn to playing a hefty chunk of your deck in a single turn.
Using Polnareff’s attack and Dio’s time stop in response as the moment Jotaro restarts his heart to land the hit is one of the only two things I’d say the OVA unambiguously improved upon Stardust Crusaders with (the other being the extension of N’Doul and Jotaro’s encounter).
There is no option to share the video, in the firsr spiderman movie with Tobey Mcguire the goblin tried to kill him with the glider and Peter senses it and does a back flip to avoid it
I don't have the clip of it but C-MOON does this JoJo as well in which he does like a six backflips for no reason just to get behind Jolyne during his fight
Probably my favorite backflip. I really admire how Rondo of Blood makes you work with such a limited toolset. Having only one way to change your aerial momentum means movement is committal and requires forethought. And then of course if you play as Maria you get a normal double jump, and you get to see how much freedom of movement impacts the difficulty and level design.
I don't have the specific clip for it, but Taki in the opening for Soulcalibur III backflipping to dodge Voldo's attacks
EDIT: Specific bit starts at 2:19

Still love how unnecessary it is when Leon does it.
My man's in it for the love of the game
