I cant post links here for some retarded reason.

But, theres an interview with some capcom guy on gamespy where he says that Daigo has played over 10.000 matches in SFIV and ranks number one in the world in their ranking system, winning 94% of his games which are only against the best japenese SFIV players. Hes staying out of tournaments because the real money is not yet there and he doesnt want to show off too much of his playstyle untill theres a lot of money at stake.

yeah bro i didnt know about him but i just watched some of his videos and he is a BEAST!

[majinsupervegito]

upon further research, you appear to be correct. its most of the classic characters that were added to the PSX port, evil ryu was indeed in the arcade version.

[Killergymsox]

rare footage? He plays SFIV all the time?

[PSTRIPPLEE]

Boring but powerfull

Take that some were else we not intrested this is no religious place this is a street fighter hood ur in right bout now

[majinsupervegito]

i just want to point out that evil ryu was not in SFA1, he came about for the PSX version of SFA2 and was later added to SFA2G/SFZ2A. he in the home version of SFA3 and all versions after. and the whole story of evil ryu was that unlike akuma, ryu couldnt control it and it destroyed him(SFA3) so you are right he is evil. also, his first appearance was SF1 when he was retconned to have "snapped" and metsu shoryuken'd sagat who was trying to play nice and help up the kid he had just beaten.

Did Jesus struggle to contain the dark energy inside him too?

[Chris Walker]

The satsui no hadou (that evil power in him) was instilled in him after meeting with Akuma. This was said to be Ryu's true power (before Street Fighter II) that has awoken. Now that he has controlled it (during Street Fighter IV), he can use that power for his own base ends, which happen to be for good causes. I think of him as a Goku, with his ape formation being the satsui no hadou.

But he can kick ass right? So who gives a fuck about his story.

[brucenatelee]

Which game was he originally evil. I thought he was always the lone wolf warrior who wanted to find a real battle. Is it Street Fighter 1 or something?

[brucenatelee]

I know about Evil Ryu, but he was never entirely evil.
