apparently the official story for Sagat's scar is not just that Ryu dragon punched him, but that Sagat actually won the match and extended his hand to help Ryu up - and Ryu fucking hit him with a Shoryuken.
I think it's hilarious how the characters go everywhere in their fighting outfits in the cartoons. Even boxer walks around with his gloves on the whole time.
i was trying to find some good fight scenes from the various Street Fighter shows
all I could find were scenes of Ryu going dark side and going AAAAAAAAGGGGHHHH HNNNNNRRRRGGGHHH and charging a fireball for like twelve years before throwing it at someone, usually obliterating them or the building behind them.
get your goddamn dragonball z out of my street fighter.

What a dick.
Is this true?
This can't be true.
If it is, fuck, no wonder Sagat is pissed off all the time.

It's Bison's robot / android things checking out Sagat's and Ryu's fighting abilities and "power levels" or whatever they called them in the movie. It's been a while.
The original SF2 movie was actually pretty damn good. Good movie, great soundtrack.
The US soundtrack however was a fucking abomination pumped full of nu-metal shite.
One of the most glaring examples of this is the Chun/Vega fight. In the original JP version, Chun and Guile both turn on the radio and listen to a mellow, acoustic song performed by a soulful make vocalist. The juxtaposition of the slower/softer music with the brutal battle that ensues between Chun/Vega makes the scene amazing.
The US version substitutes KMFDM on the radio and thus completely changes the tone of the scene, from something amazing, to something predictably drowned in testosterone.

Sev: Your gameplay is the most heavily yomi based around. Usually you look for characters that allow you to force guessing situations for big dmg. Even if the guess is mathematically nowhere near in your favor lol. You're happiest when you have either a 50/50, 33/33/33 or even a 75/25 situation to go crazy with. And you will take big risks to force those situations to come up.
i don't think that the SFII movie is "canon," especially since that fight's not even taking place during the SF1 tournament.
ugh i said "canon," kill me now
Sagat doesn't get a scar in the original game at all though he does have the eye patch. They change their minds every iteration on character back stories so it's really a moot point. I just remember that video as being the first concrete scene with him getting the scar.

the storyline as far as i know it is that the SF1 tourney takes place, Ryu and Sagat fight, Ryu gives Sagat a dragon punch to the chest, game over; in between the two games, Sagat's wound heals into a gross scar.

What a dick.
From what I understand they were fighting each other, Sagat was winning and considered the fight over. Ryu went to the dark side and socked the crap out of him. KO'ing him. Sagat was thuroughly pissed, and spends most of Alpha trying to kick his ass. In the end he realizes some sort of inner peace about not fighting with anger, he becomes some sort of friend with Ryu, and Ryu realizes that the dark power is no good.
Maybe because Akuma will fucking kill him. At least until he is retconned back into life.
Akuma did kill Bison in SF2, he straight up broke him like a stick.

Umm, that's not really "new", I think that's the one that came with the game.
Or did I miss the joke?

The round was over, Sagat had won. He went over and offered to help Ryu up.
Having had his ass beat down by Sagat, something deep inside Ryu didn't want to let him lose. And so Ryu came very, very close to being overtaken by the "Murderous Intent," the Satsui no Hadō, and coming THAT close to being over come by Satsui no Hadō caused Ryu to Shoryuken Sagat, resulting in a wound that led to the massive scar across his chest. The Satsui no Hadō is the kind of dark power that Akuma wields and gives him his strength/abilities, and even Akuma is expecting Ryu to give into it eventually, because he considers it a source of extreme power. It's the Satsui no Hadō that allowed Akuma to nearly kill Gouken, and it's the kind of thing that Ryu almost gave into when he was defeated by Sagat.
This changed Ryu. He didn't know that he had that kind of evil spark inside of him, and he knows that it's a terrible thing. He went into a kind of reclusive state.
Until Ken talked him out of it. That's why Ken gave Ryu his head band - the red head band - to remind him who he is, and that he doesn't have to give into Satsui no Hadō.
Ryu still struggles with it though, because he knows that potential is always there.
As far as Sagat, he vowed revenge upon Ryu, and blinded by rage he joined Shadaloo in a deal with Bison to set up another battle so that he could take down Ryu. It wasn't until later that Sagat realized that fighting with rage wasn't helping him. Bison gave him a shot at Ryu, having put Ryu in a state of mind control. But Sagat didn't want this kind of match, and busted Ryu out of the mind control state, after which Ryu beat down Bison. That's when Sagat finally got over his rage and understood true rivalry.

I still don't think I've played Sol. I haven't been online in a while because I can't handle the lag, though.
The Raid
I can't even touch him with Ryu
Fireballs work. Also, spamming jabs work against his headbutts.
GT: Tanky the Tank
Black: 1377 6749 7425
You can never have enough fireballs. I think LP SRKs beat his butt splashes too.
You just described most of last years SFIIHDR lobbies.
That, and a lot of jumping short kicks.
That's expected, but my game does NOT look like that on my TV.
Also, in championship mode I fought a Zangief player named Russian Hugs.
What a dick.
(was actually trying to find a video of the shoryuken scar scene, but this popped up first)
LOL, what the fuck was that.
all I could find were scenes of Ryu going dark side and going AAAAAAAAGGGGHHHH HNNNNNRRRRGGGHHH and charging a fireball for like twelve years before throwing it at someone, usually obliterating them or the building behind them.

It's a retcon at best.
spoiler for animated blood:
Looks exactly the same as it does on my monitor.
ugh i said "canon," kill me now
Reminds me of this:
spoilered for stupid.
What's with all the "Terminator-vision" nonsense?
Interesting. I've only ever played on the 360 using HDMI cables. Does it really run that much smoother on a PC?
It's Bison's robot / android things checking out Sagat's and Ryu's fighting abilities and "power levels" or whatever they called them in the movie. It's been a while.
i don't see why he doesn't just possess akuma or something
Maybe because Akuma will fucking kill him. At least until he is retconned back into life.
Well, from what I understand Ryu would become much more powerful than Akuma if he accepts the shun goku satsu or whatever it is that Akuma accepted.
Fun fact: Wikipedia says the literal translation of "shun goku satsu" is "instant hell murder." That is awesome.
The US soundtrack however was a fucking abomination pumped full of nu-metal shite.

and they are making a new anime
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZyAoLp2amsY&feature=related
LOL, I didn't even know they did that. Shows how late I am.
Another Shin Shoryuken frame.
tbh the shin shoryuken fits Ryu more. I don't like it on Gouken as much. I hope Gouken gets an epic combo ultra or some nonsense.
FUCKING
BAWS.
Man this one actually looks really promising.
Just hearing Akuma narrate is so badass.
edit: I am dumb, don't listen to me.
She's a robotic goddess.
MY ROBOTIC GODDESS!
He'd go up to Viper and be like, "Sup BITCH I got the power of NOTHINGNESS"
Whatchu got? Leaf blower feet and sparkly fingas?
Or did I miss the joke?
Big ol dumby.
You know, I never did watch that movie. Even though I got the collector's edition. I will someday, when I'm really really really bored.
