Yeah, that's Chris in a nutshell. Sure he'll be down in the slumps now but he'll be back for head shots, head stomping, and boulder punching in no time. You can break the character but you can't nerf his skills.
That's worrying, but I guess he'll probably need it for when he has to punch through something again...hmm. I wonder if Capcom will go the extra mile and make him punch through a steal door...I wouldn't be surprised if they did that considering that the boulder thing he did became a meme in its own right.
