Vega's Theme - Street Fighter II (guitar duet feat. Kev)

Hey ! This video is actually an excuse to ask you for a favor. Remember last year, when I got into the Video Games Live contest and finished 2nd ?

Well, this year, even though I submitted a video (my last one, Cid's Theme), I'm not asking for your votes. Instead, I'd be really thankful if you'd vote for some friends of mine, a video games cover band called the Flying Penguins.

They entered the contest with a great jazz-fusion medley of Castlevania Symphony of the Night:

It's these kind of performances that brings recognition to VG music. PLEASE, go check them out and vote for them ! You'll need an account on Dailymotion (if you don't have one, it only takes a minute to create one).


About this video, I just asked two days ago my childhood friend Kévin to jam with me on this theme (thought it would be more convincing than me trying to speak english). He came to my home this morning and after a couple hours working on it, we recorded some takes. Please keep in mind that we're both electric guitar player. We probably could do better with more time in our hands, but the contest's voting starts today. Can't help it if some people feel this isn't as clean as my other videos, we had fun recording it ! ;)

The guy with the light mustache seems like a homosexual. Especially at the end when he's looking at glasses face in a almost, I wanna suck your nose while waiting for eye contact to be made, homosexual kind of way. Aside from the gayness, this was cool!

@SsKievete After posted my comment, I remembered why they changed the name, In fact, the first reason is M.Bison (boxer) changed in balrog because capcom USA wouldn't have a sue with M.Tyson, because the name of boxer sounds a like, and of course, Vega is better for a man Who came from Spain

[dxashura666]

[nathanr3269]

[Tuttatis]

[solarsoul2012]

@Chtud Exactly

[Chtud]

@solarsoul2012 The Copyright Stuff is the main reason,The Japanese dont give a crap what the western gamers think about their names for characters

[solarsoul2012]

@Chtud I found out that they switched bison's (the dictator) name from vega to m. bison also because that name did not sound intimidating enough for a final boss.

[MrPresidentevil1]

yolala hiii hiii !

[BloodyNickles]

puss n boots lol right up his way he should do more much respect make a request list bro i know u got crazy stuff

[Nomad1718]

[DarkArmos]

8 people are officialy retarded for disliking this masterpeice

[Chtud]

@SsKievete original Jpn streetfighter 2:

Boxer:M.Bison(because of M.Tyson

Dictator:Vega

Claw:Balrog

Capcom changed the names for US release because they we're scared for Mike Tyson Copyrights

[Koreyosu]

Would you marry me ?

[virtual855]

this is great, I'm surprised this didn't get at least a million views yet.

[SsKievete]

@jaytone0 In Europe Vega it's Balrog.

I think that they changed the name because "Balrog" doesn't sound spanish, and Vega it's a Spanish Surname, and Vega it's the Spanish Character of Street Fighter ^^
