Many back stories exist for the fallen master of Ryu and Ken, but we have a few favorites. In one familiar back story, Gouken is challenged by his brother Akuma, who is also the murderer of their master Goutetsu, where Akuma eventually kills his brother in the altercation. Another story, set up as the basis of Ken and Ryu's journey in Street Fighter II, sees Gouken killed by the invading mastermind M. Bison.
Capcom promises the character will require a special unlock procedure but we think it's safe to say that when Gouken is squaring off against you, he will be one tough hombre to wrassle with.

We should have seen this coming. After all, you must defeat Sheng Long Gouken before you stand a chance.

Sheng Long refers to Ryu's Dragon Punch. Gouken is already "dead" at that point, why would he tell people to go fight his dead master?
That would be a really easy fight.

I'd prefer Down R Up L Y B (the SFII SNES code to allow same chara VS same chara.) I still tap that out every time I see a Capcom Logo... XD Seems like they never use it...
