So I'm not really sure what to call this type of effect, other than a warping of space-time... similar to either the charge shot in metroid prime (where things seem to bend or warp around a large mass), or that screensaver on most windows PCs that is like a magnifiying glass being moved around the screen, distorting the screen. I want an attack in my game to do that, and have no idea how using TGF. Is this clear what I am trying to do.. or am I just rambling?

I know what you mean, but unfortunately it's not possible to do stuff like that in TGF. I dunno if you could use the Overlay object in MMF to do something like that, I've seen some cool effects done with that, but not in TGF.

MMF will be able to do this in the future (an extension called the Lens object is under development).

I don't think it'd be so much like a radial blur, more like a fish-eye effect.

I know what your talking about and you can find a tutorial on how to do it at tigerworks.co.uk It is under the TGF/MMF section. Im not sure if it works for TGF also but you can try. If not, why not start using MMF? If u dont have the full version id be glad to make ur games into a .exe file and send them back to u.
