I am extremely frustrated - I am not doing anything wrong and I absolutely cannot execute the blitz. I have tried dropping my speed and everything. I just don't understand what I need to do - X then LRL X doesn't work, dropping the rom speed doesn't work. Any suggestions?

i am having the same problem on my PS2 can anybody help?

Left, Right, Left, then A, while the pointer is on Sabin after selecting Blitz. It should work, as I have just done it...

Yes, in order to issue a blitz command.

First you select blitz.

Then the curser targets the target.

Then WHILE the curser is on the target, enter the blitz command buttens.

Then press OK to select the cursers target for the attack.

There are 3 steps.

1) Select Target
2) Imput Blitz Command
3) Attack Target.
