I have my esoteric reasons.
you a green person?
No buddy, it's just you.
Ken didn't go through the struggle because he learned a toned down version that Gouken taught. You would've known that if you knew about SF. Ryu went through the struggle even though he was taught the same version because...one again it is in his blood.
yeah okay but you said its the backbone of ansatsuken and then you're like Ken isn't and then you said it was in his blood and i was like "huh?". anyway.
The anime is not canon but it is OFFICIALLY stated by CAPCOM that that's how the fighters would fight outside the game...I've said this to you 1000 times already. Do you read my post dude?
i know...i was talking the other one. there was another bit you brought up from the Alpha anime sometime back. don't remember the details.
No one ever said he fought in the desert. I said HE TRAVELED THREW IT. Ryu did not wait for the fighters to come to Japan, he goes to the fights, unlike the little fighters you worship. In fact he is hardly in Japan
liar......he travelled and then threw it. 😄
j/k.
dude we DON'T know what happened in SF2. that's all i'm saying. what you are saying and what i am is all speculation.
also i didn't say Ryu doesn't travel. i said the only places we know of ryu having been to prior to SF3 are india, china, japan, thailand etc....all asian countries.
Why don't you actually bring some info actually contributed to the debate instead of absolute crap that has nothing to do with Terry beating Ryu. You are saying Terry will win because he's had a bad life. That's like saying Terri will beat Gohan because Gohan had a mother and father and was raised well. Bull.
look back at why i brought it up. i was just reminded certain people that they are overlooking Terry's struggle which IMO is still a lot worse than Ryu's. that is all. i didn't even say he is better than ryu because of this.
This proves you know nothing about the games you post against, Ryu left before Gouken was killed by Gouki.
correction: Ryu was fighing in SF1 when Gouken was killed.
All this coming from guy who talks about nothing but Terry's life in every thread and never brings in good reasons to the debate
all this what? i don't talk about Terry's life in all threads. what are you going on about. coming from mister-SF-foot-fettish-freak. please.
also like i said AT LEAST i have Tiamat's FAQ backing me up in the age department (and almost everything else). what's your excuse?
Anyone can focus there mind, just because you can doesn't mean you can do it well, because Terry can't do it as good as Ryu. the only reason why Ryu couldn't at first because...once -A- friggen-gain... Killing and destroying was in his blood, HE COULD NOT HELP IT.
bro, i can't focus?
*closes his eyes, focuses, and then levitates to the clouds and gives the angels a high five (also sees akuma on the way as he is doing another one of his overrated feets)*
and why and how did you bring ORE-SAMA come into this anyway?
regardless.
how do you know Terry can't focus as good as Ryu? the only proof we have to this is to compare their lives and their pasts.
Terry wasn't ever consumed by his demons or anger. ryu was consumed by his desire to win at all cost. Terry lost his father and despite having no guidance STILL remained pure in his fighting spirit.
also are you teling me that Akuma is Ryu's dad...cuz that is from the anime and so far it is not canon?
Who are you to judge Balrog? You don't even know all the facts available about him. Balrog is not mindless, you can't even prove he is. He would not be a Shadaloo general if he was. Dignity nor grace are needed to be a good warrior. Balrog was a kid trying to survive in the streets whilst maintaining what learned on the streets by himself, he's had it harder then Terry will ever have it, Balrog has respect, you don't need grace to be a good fighter(what kind of crap is that) and Balrog has heart. that was a great comparison. its nothing like comparing Mohammed Ali to Mike Tyson. To you, your past make you makes you a good fighter, but it doesn't it's how you train and live that make you good. You could have the hardest life ever and still be a weak fighter.
oh right...i'm not supposed to judge videogame characters cuz it'll hurt their feelings. i'm such a bad person. let me walk on shattered glass and atone for my sins of wronging a sprite. GET REAL.
Balrog was from the slums, was a bum, got into the ring to get his shot at money, got it, had no grace cuz he never followed rules, killed an opponent cuz he's a mindless dumbass with all anger and no grace, had his license taken away, got into crimes, joined shadowloo, teamed up with Birdie to get psycho drives only he didn't know that pyschodrives are in the base, bison blew up, became a bum again, bison returned in another body, recruited balrog again, bison gets killed in SF2, Balrog becomes a bum again and is still a bum, eventually gets into a Vale Tudo ring but gets KO'd by Alex with just one combo.
did i miss something?
Balrog has respect?
now you're really talking about someone else. Balrog is a BUM. He was A BUM. He is STILL A BUM. some respect.
tell me where all this stuff from anyway...what's it called? i've never heard of all this you're talkign about...not to mention A LOT of what you're saying is outdated SF info. you know how many times they retcon their stories. Keep up with it.
as for what makes a good fighter? AGAIN i didn't say Terry is the best cuz he had a rough life. get it out of your head. i said Terry's training was more practical and rough than Ryu. Terry is genuinely tough cuz of the life he lived. heard of the expression "street hardened". yeah, terry is street hardened. that makes you a tough fighter especially since you have that combined with heart, skill, grace and honor. all the things that Balrog doesn't.
Balrog is stupid cuz he was a bum his whole life. he is also stupid cuz he didn't even know about Pyschodrives though he had been working with Bison all those years and didn't evne know they were in the base.
Balrog is disgraceful and has no honor cuz he was too voilent and unstable to be in the ring and broke rules and killed his opponent without showing remorse.
Balrog has no honor cuz he works for a crime organization and when he had money he blew it away on wine, women and gambling.
also YOU brought up the comparison.
also AGAIN i didn't say grace makes you a good warrior. how about you get the whole fanboyism toned down and actually read my posts dude.
It's not about who has the best looking feet, it's about who has the best feet...SHOSH!!
