You probably won't see this but can you check out this manhwa called PLAYER it is terrific and you may have heard of it or seen it but you should recommend it so others can too. I find it really interesting but you don't need to if you don't want to. Keep up the great videos!
My sister's funeral was today. It was hard seeing all those I care about so hurt and broken by the loss of someone we all cared about and loved so much. I LOVE the Honest Gaming History videos so this came out at the PERFECT time. Thank you so much for giving me something to laugh about today.
I sat here and watch it all. I’ve always been confused on the street fighter lore and having this video, wrap it all together in something cohesive, and easy to understand really great to watch
This was really well done. You definitely embody hard work and taking your time. I feel like I only ever played fighting games as a kid for the lore and story so thanks for taking the time to actually make it comprehensive and fun to digest in one go.

I'm SO glad you made this video Mastadonte. I've been a fan of the entire Street Fighter story since my Middle School days & it's amazing to see this story continue after all these years. Much appreciated man, Seriously.
With Street Fighter, (and fighting games in general)having dozens of characters with their own lores and stories I really appreciate how you went about explaining things in a way that I was able to comprehend . Shoot I had no idea the games even went in this particular order until now.
Super well put together! SF was my break out game that’s literally grown with me into adulthood. Starting with SF2 for the SNES. You did a great job with your research, and got me even more hyped for SF6. You sir get my sub.
The man, the myth, the legend of *_HONEST GAME HISTORY_* - The Black Mastadonte - has returned for one big heck of a video about Street Fighter lore. Give this man credit, he's done Web Toons story reviews month after month, Twitch Livestream and HGH vids all over 2022. RESPECT!
This video was FIRE! I was crazy looking for a "Full SF Story" Video and I couldn't find a decent one (and that was like 3 or 4 weeks ago), and then I found this one recently and IT WAS GREAT AND SUPER WELL DONE! Congratz my man, you did great! Thank you for this video!
Hey easy on my man Sagat! 😂 He lost the first fight with Adon because he wasn’t completely healed and was too focused on Ryu and the one he lost in SF4 was because he allowed Adon to win out of pity for him.
I have been playing Street Fighter since the early 90’s. Your video was watched from start to finish, and you definitely nailed it. What I love about this video most is your new generation energy and vibe you are bringing to this classic game. I am very impressed. Thank you for creating a comprehensive video throughout the generations.
Laura obviously doesn't beat Ken. He was definitely holding back. Also, World Tour mode will take place in Metro City and other countries as well. I can't wait to play it. It's the mode I am most hype for in SF6.
This was so well put together and as a fan of Street Fighter I was always been interested in the story but it was all over the place so this video really put it all together. Thank you for this, my brother.
Story Summary of SF (from a longtime SF player) SF I: Ryu wants to get stronger SF Alpha I: Ryu wants to get stronger. SF Alpha 2: Ryu wants to get stronger, but learns someone is stronger. Finds out about his "evil side." SF Alpha 3: Ryu wants to be stronger. Capcom makes SF The Movie canon. SF II series: Ryu wins tournament. SF IV series: Ryu still wants to be stronger. SF V series: Ryu still wants to be stronger but now his evil side wanted a new name. Some guy from middle east wants to save the world. SF III series: A wrestler wants revenge versus a human flag. No one cared, since Ryu wants to be stronger. Trains under a bargain bin imitation of Ryuji Yamazaki. SF Smash Bros.: Male Jill (Jack?) Valentine is introduced. Ryu is now strong was able to carry Male Jill on his shoulders as the new protag of SF.
Omg its happening. Boy leaves and comes back with an hour long honest gaming history and one about STREET FIGHTER?! But seriously I know how hard you work on these videos so thank you for keeping me and many entertained and always managing to put a smile on our face. So as always be easy and stay lit donte and I can't wait till the next vid
Man you are great at explaining story and characters I sat through the whole video without clicking off a single time great work and I would love to see you do the Tekken story breakdown
My dad used to talk about this game all the time when I was a literal toddler and I basically grew up knowing about the game and actually played one of these at VERY YOUNG but never learned the lore.
Really impressive. I’m usually not a big fan of people doing comedic asides in their explanations, but yours were actually mostly funny and fit pretty well with the rest of your tone. I also liked both your thoroughness and trying to help keep track of what is and isn’t canon. I mean, I’ve played most of the games and still have no clue what was going on, so this was great. I am bummed that when you pointed out that Balrog is a Mike Tyson ripoff, you didn’t also mention that in Japan his name is actually M Bison, but that probably would have added yet another layer of confusion to an already confusing mess. I tried checking out the rest of your channel, but I don’t read a ton of manga, so there’s probably not much for me. But I’ll definitely subscribe in case you do any more videos like this. It was pretty fire.
The Street Fighter 30th collection states that Akuma fights M. Bison during the second Street Fighter tournament in Akuma's character info, so that's probably the canon ending.
First off we got Clements Tekken Timeline which was Some HEAT and now we got your Street Fighter timeline which is about to be great. I’m glad you took the time to make this and TBH HGH is one of my favorite TH-cam shows
Binged it while it was live and my god what an amazing video easily worth the wait learned lots facts about characters and thr story I honestly didn't know. Now obviously not every single fact about the story and characters were included like Vega's backstory or Dan might've beat Chun li in a fight but that doesn't harm the quality of the video overall and it wasn't even that important to the story in the first place. As for the ending theory I'm honestly thinking JP is bison's or another experiment that's funding the neo shadoloo, since all the members are bison clones and other experiments, I think he's gonna possess all of them at once and use the collective psycho power to rule/destroy the world and assuming this is the case Bison's plans are already looking like it's in full swing since his psycho power is looking way more powerful with brand new abilities but yeah I would prefer the illuminati became the next major antagonist like in 3rd strike. Once again fire video and easily one of if not the best Honest gaming histories you've done and I hope it gets the attention it deserves.
Thank you so much for taking this time to map out the storyline of the street fighter franchise. I always wondered what happened to everybody in street fighter 3rd strike. For sure I gotta subscribe!
Can we talk about how every single woman in street fighter is hot? Chun Li will always hold the crown as the queen of street fighter but damn there are some hot ass women
Really well done and funny asf! 😂 much respect to you for putting this together because I know it was difficult. I enjoyed it and actually found some things out I didn’t know(which was surprising to me since I’m a SF historian) only thing is confused about is I always thought Alpha came before SF1 ? 🤔 🧐
Thanks fam. And it seems like it since in Japanese it's called Street Fighter Zero, but everything Ryu does in that series is after his first Sagat fight
Bro! You got a new honest subscriber. This video is so perfectly well broken down and the humor is perfect! Thanks for this video. I needed this version
Lee from Street fighter 1 actually comes up a bit as a background character. He's the uncle to Yun and Yang and is the one who taught them martial arts, and its implied he was a friend of Chun-Li's father. On top of that he may be Jamie's father, this is very tenuous, but an early leak and listed the new characters and called Jamie, Yun and Yang's cousin, then 6 months later the trailer dropped revealing Jamie and Chun-li and there was a character artwork leak confirming the new comer leak so its valid info, but at the same time the official profile on Jamie just says he was inspired by Yun and Yang so the relation ship may be a familiar one or the leaker could of misconstrued some information or the characters background could of changed between the leak and the reveal.
I wish Cammy’s story had stuck to the fact she and Bison were lovers instead of this clone nonsense. Would’ve made for some very interesting drama moving forward.
Thank you for the insanely long catch-up on SF lore. After playing the SF6 beta I wanted to understand the lore but I always found it crazy that the story went back and forth chronologically between games. Thanks for condensing it into a manageable story lol
Bruv! Can we talk about how you absolutely Smashed It out the park with this video?! Amazing account my man, tremendous job! Loved your content from day dot. Keep up the big work 👊🏾🙌🏾🔥💫
Wow, this is surprising amount of Black Air Force Activity in Street Fighter. Also, Luke was internally made for SF6 first. He’s just a guest character for SFV.
This is a SPECTACULAR timeline summary. Thank you for all of this dynamic work. ONE QUESTION: do (or, how do) the Street Fighter comics from Udon and the animated series tie in?
Thanks so much fam. And from what I've read, the UDON comics are not-canon. They're kind of like what-if stories that expand on character lore, but a lot of it contradicts the game lore
@@TheBlackMastadonte Ahh thank you brother. that’s disappointing to hear about the comics. Capcom needs to hire you as a story manager. On a separate note, you might enjoy what we’re doing with our Justice For Hire project. We’re a show and cinematic universe being produced with anyone and everyone that wants to join the vigilante story world. Would love your eyes on what we’re doing, and perhaps have you in the series. Much love and happy holidays.
Fun fact: the name M. bison (Mike Bison) was originally supposed to be the name of Balrog, the character who wears boxing gloves and looks like Mike Tyson. Potential Lawsuit concerns from Mike Tyson, forced capcom to swap the character names and shorten Mike Bison to Mike Tyson.
This most likely isn't going to happen in street fighter 6, but I would love for Q to come back later and for him to be connected to the story and his motives and at least a little bit of his secrecy revealed.
When Zeku transforms, he's basically a dead-ringer for Strider Hiryu, so your Strider connection isn't too far off. Also, if you listen carefully when transformed Zeku performs his specials, they have the same sfx whenever Strider slashes with his weapon. ... so there's that.
Seth's name is also an ancient Egypt mythological reference. The god of Darkness and brother of Osiris, the one who kills him to become the king of Egypt. Kinda like Cain, so there's that.
Maybe they will bring back Asura from Asura’s Wrath as a cameo or as DLC. Since at the ending/epilogue of that game, Asura was reawakening his Wrath power just as a meteor was falling towards the city he lives in.
Hey man, fantastic video. I have been playing SF since I was a kid in the 90's, and I couldn't have told you what a single game's story was. Thanks for streamlining it in a coherent way.
Im so hyped about 6, that i watch the whole video, thank you very much, this IS a monumental amount of work, well done, i subscribed , liked and commented.
Liu Kang become God in MK, and Jin Kazama has fully mastered Devil gene at his will in TK. Meanwhile Ryu...just still the same Ryu...Dammit Capcom, just adapt the Shin Ryu from comic and make it canon in the game. Ryu deserve some real character development
Thanks for this well done recap just in time to get back on the SF6 hype train. This was the first of your videos I had stumbled across but man, I'm hooked. You got the energy and a really easy to listen to voice which made the hour long video zoom by (y'all know what I mean - some creators be out here shouting every line and making it a chore). I'm also hype to give Kimberly some playtime too. Ninjas are my jam and it helps that Kimberly has one of the coolest designs (and that rocking character theme, my god) of the new characters.
My brother, you just gotta hide those charges. Holding back to block should always be part of the game plan. However, you can jump, throw hands, or wake up with charge in tow. You just gotta hold back when ever animations are being played out. It takes getting used to, but some characters get the benefit of moves being good, because you were being patient ex. Like walking behind a slow Sonic Boom with Guile, or duffing a dude with a rush punch with another with Boxer. Cody’s Zonk Punch requires the same mentality. You can do it! Also, thanks for the video. I always love seeing folks do retrospectives when new entries of a game come out! EDIT: I have the wildest theory for Street Fighter 6. The player character IS the Illuminati’s creation. They are going around the world learning from masters, easily adapting things like Blanka’s lightning, Dalhisim’s yoga fire, etc… things like Seth was able to do, but was too obsessed with Bison to do anything productive. Let’s say the G files are the successor to SIN’s data, creating a truly powerful and evolving being, and being that desires to learn the meaning of strength and at the end of the world, you have break Gil’s prophecy. JP looks to be carrying on the psycho power legacy and while befriending the masters, you help Ken clear his name, but he senses the player isn’t normal. The big twist being you are what the Illuminati fear. That is some crazy Street Fighter story.
Glad to know the series is back! Great stuff, Donte! Also, you still haven't chosen one of the most skilled swordsmen, and also one of the absolute classics of all time, and while he may not be popular to casuals, he's sure to be one of the most baddass MC to ever grace the gaming platform, and his adventures are still ongoing! He's none other than Adol "The Red" Christin of the Ys series! I'm sure you'll have tons of fun with the games, and doing an episode will surely make us Ys fans happier that ever!
I know it's confusing 😅 but just for some info... Street Fighter Alpha 2 takes place after Alpha 3 so the Time line is basically: Street Fighter Street Fighter Alpha Street Fighter Alpha 3 Street Fighter Alpha 2 Street Fighter 2 Street Fighter 4 Street Fighter 5 Street Fighter 3 3rd Strike Street Fighter 6 So that's why Charlie is alive after Alpha 2 in Alpha 3 that's when he died. This timeline is Canon officially confirmed by devs. G is neither a clone or a variant of Q, he is manipulating Q into murdering people and that's why Q is able to be in multiple places at once, Q time travels as well. G is mind controlling Q, they aren't the same person and the reason why there names are only one letter is because they want to remain anonymous... Except G he is very social. Rose isn't present in Street Fighter 6 because she is busy tampering with visions with G, because G is going to be the next villain and PROBABLY joining teams with JP in Street Fighter 7, there ain't no way they killing of JP this early. Also JP has Psycho Power too so we Lookin' at JP, Bison, & G as main Villains in future Street Fighter Projects. That last paragraph was just my Theory, G is just floating in the Street Fighter universe not even being used for any games, JP is a new villain and can't be killed already plus Bison never dies. My main never dies, it is rumored that Bison is in JP's body influencing him.
This deserves more views and likes, solid job man. I been a casual SF player since the SFII craze began in the 90s and always thought the story was just a mish mash of weird bullshit but it was cool to see the narrative woven together, as best it can be.
Well done! Even as a huge fan of the SF series, I struggled to put all the timelines together. Thanks for creating this vid and for making it all make sense now! 😎💪🏽
The Lingering Will being a suit of armor given life by nothing but the wearer's sheer unyielding hatred and rage for a single individual is one of the hardest things in fiction
It's good to see someone that gives others inspiration, I liked the job that you did on street fighter so much, that I subscribed, you are that one, keep up the good work,
Really good video. I think you should do either the Batman Arkham series, Injustice series, God of War Ragnarök, or talk about Ethan Winters from RE7 to Village
This was awesome. You explained the stories so well. Appreciate this since I recently got back into street fighter with their 5th entry and planning on getting SF6.
This video was FANTASTIC! It came across my TH-cam feed and I gave it a spin! Thank you so much for covering one of my all time favorite games! Great work! Instant sub!
DAAARN MAN!! You Super Dope, I watched this straight tru! Big respect to you man, I learnt loads. Been a fan since the 1st Street Fighter. Keep this up, you know how to make a hour seem like 30 mins at most! Skill fam ..skills!
It's been a while, but your favorite gaming historian is back with some HEAT! Enjoy as I make sense out of the WHOLE Street Fighter timeline

This most likely isn't going to happen in street fighter 6, but I would love for Q to come back later and for him to be connected to the story and his motives and at least a little bit of his secrecy revealed.
Same here
When Zeku transforms, he's basically a dead-ringer for Strider Hiryu, so your Strider connection isn't too far off. Also, if you listen carefully when transformed Zeku performs his specials, they have the same sfx whenever Strider slashes with his weapon.
... so there's that.
Yeah I've been hearing that from others too
Please keep doing longer videos. This was great 👍
I devoted hours to this game as a kid and never knew 90% of what you presented here. Fantastic and compelling recap. Well done!
i used to LOVE Rival Schools that’s hella crazy bro i completely forgot about that game . nostalgia hit hard when i seen the cover
Just discovered your channel! Love to watch the Final Fight full history!
Thanks fam
Thank you for this in depth history man! Been trying to get back into SF for awhile and was Super lost on the lore and narratives.
Cody legit was fighting HANDCUFFED. He's not just that guy, HE'S BEYOND THAT GUY!
WOOOORD
Seth's name is also an ancient Egypt mythological reference. The god of Darkness and brother of Osiris, the one who kills him to become the king of Egypt. Kinda like Cain, so there's that.
Oh wow. Thanks for the info
Maybe they will bring back Asura from Asura’s Wrath as a cameo or as DLC. Since at the ending/epilogue of that game, Asura was reawakening his Wrath power just as a meteor was falling towards the city he lives in.
That would be FIRE
Hey man, fantastic video. I have been playing SF since I was a kid in the 90's, and I couldn't have told you what a single game's story was. Thanks for streamlining it in a coherent way.
HONEST GAMING HISTORYYYY 😭😭😭😭
Im so hyped about 6, that i watch the whole video, thank you very much, this IS a monumental amount of work, well done, i subscribed , liked and commented.
I don't know Final Fight and would love to know more actually!
Copy that
You rock dude. First video of yours that I have watched but wow the amount of effort to get through all of this and bring it all together is crazy!
I realize the target audience is 12 year olds, but damn this is cringe.
If it's cringe then why are you even here
@@juicechevy7398 Wanted the story of street fighter before 6 drops.
@@unnaturalatrophy8443 Oh my bad bro
That Lexington Steele scream at 25:49 got me weak over here 🤣😂😂
You did a really good job with this video. I honestly would love to see you try this with the Rival Schools series. Surprisingly deep lore there.
Thanks fam. And honestly...I might do that
these interruptions by your "alter ego" is realy annoying
CONSCIENCE FOR PRESIDENT! Also, great video! :D
Thanks fam
This would be such a good video if it wasn’t for the lame attempts at voices and comedy.
Liu Kang become God in MK, and Jin Kazama has fully mastered Devil gene at his will in TK. Meanwhile Ryu...just still the same Ryu...Dammit Capcom, just adapt the Shin Ryu from comic and make it canon in the game. Ryu deserve some real character development
I love this till the las 11 seconds keep your your blm to your self
He can do whatever he wants on his own video. Mind your damn business.
Balrog aka M. Bison in Japan (his name is a play on M. Tyson) is the black character introduced before Deejay.
You killed it with this video! Looking forward to watching more videos from you.
Thanks fam!!
Diagonal Crouch is a charge fighter's best friend. Learn that and you're on your way.
That's what I've been told lol
Thanks for this well done recap just in time to get back on the SF6 hype train. This was the first of your videos I had stumbled across but man, I'm hooked. You got the energy and a really easy to listen to voice which made the hour long video zoom by (y'all know what I mean - some creators be out here shouting every line and making it a chore).
I'm also hype to give Kimberly some playtime too. Ninjas are my jam and it helps that Kimberly has one of the coolest designs (and that rocking character theme, my god) of the new characters.
i did play all of it and this rlly helps out since its been quite some time and it just makes me more excited about sf 6 thx alot
Thanks for watching
Great content and great injection of your style into the video, keep up the great work!
Appreciate it fam
My brother, you just gotta hide those charges. Holding back to block should always be part of the game plan. However, you can jump, throw hands, or wake up with charge in tow. You just gotta hold back when ever animations are being played out. It takes getting used to, but some characters get the benefit of moves being good, because you were being patient ex. Like walking behind a slow Sonic Boom with Guile, or duffing a dude with a rush punch with another with Boxer. Cody’s Zonk Punch requires the same mentality. You can do it! Also, thanks for the video. I always love seeing folks do retrospectives when new entries of a game come out!
EDIT: I have the wildest theory for Street Fighter 6. The player character IS the Illuminati’s creation. They are going around the world learning from masters, easily adapting things like Blanka’s lightning, Dalhisim’s yoga fire, etc… things like Seth was able to do, but was too obsessed with Bison to do anything productive. Let’s say the G files are the successor to SIN’s data, creating a truly powerful and evolving being, and being that desires to learn the meaning of strength and at the end of the world, you have break Gil’s prophecy. JP looks to be carrying on the psycho power legacy and while befriending the masters, you help Ken clear his name, but he senses the player isn’t normal. The big twist being you are what the Illuminati fear. That is some crazy Street Fighter story.
Thanks for the advice fam. In SF6 I will try again
Thanks bro 🙏 for putting it all together for me. I never was able to put the street fighter time line together. This really did help
No prob fam
Glad to know the series is back! Great stuff, Donte!
Also, you still haven't chosen one of the most skilled swordsmen, and also one of the absolute classics of all time, and while he may not be popular to casuals, he's sure to be one of the most baddass MC to ever grace the gaming platform, and his adventures are still ongoing!
He's none other than Adol "The Red" Christin of the Ys series! I'm sure you'll have tons of fun with the games, and doing an episode will surely make us Ys fans happier that ever!
I know it's confusing 😅 but just for some info...
Street Fighter Alpha 2 takes place after Alpha 3 so the Time line is basically:
Street Fighter
Street Fighter Alpha
Street Fighter Alpha 3
Street Fighter Alpha 2
Street Fighter 2
Street Fighter 4
Street Fighter 5
Street Fighter 3 3rd Strike
Street Fighter 6
So that's why Charlie is alive after Alpha 2 in Alpha 3 that's when he died. This timeline is Canon officially confirmed by devs.
G is neither a clone or a variant of Q, he is manipulating Q into murdering people and that's why Q is able to be in multiple places at once, Q time travels as well.
G is mind controlling Q, they aren't the same person and the reason why there names are only one letter is because they want to remain anonymous... Except G he is very social.
Rose isn't present in Street Fighter 6 because she is busy tampering with visions with G, because G is going to be the next villain and PROBABLY joining teams with JP in Street Fighter 7, there ain't no way they killing of JP this early. Also JP has Psycho Power too so we Lookin' at JP, Bison, & G as main Villains in future Street Fighter Projects.
That last paragraph was just my Theory, G is just floating in the Street Fighter universe not even being used for any games, JP is a new villain and can't be killed already plus Bison never dies. My main never dies, it is rumored that Bison is in JP's body influencing him.
9:33 It's funny you called him a Mike Tyson wannabe, because his Japanese name is *_Mike Bison_*
This deserves more views and likes, solid job man. I been a casual SF player since the SFII craze began in the 90s and always thought the story was just a mish mash of weird bullshit but it was cool to see the narrative woven together, as best it can be.
Well done! Even as a huge fan of the SF series, I struggled to put all the timelines together. Thanks for creating this vid and for making it all make sense now! 😎💪🏽
The Lingering Will being a suit of armor given life by nothing but the wearer's sheer unyielding hatred and rage for a single individual is one of the hardest things in fiction
38:29 You either die a hero or you watch yourself become a villlan...
Indeed
Yeah I remember years ago finding out about the main switch between M. Bison , Vega and Balrog
Man I had to come back because I fell asleep on it but you did a great job with this video. I’m super ready for SF6.
Much appreciated man
It's good to see someone that gives others inspiration, I liked the job that you did on street fighter so much, that I subscribed, you are that one, keep up the good work,
Thanks so much fam 🙏🏿🙏🏿
Really good video. I think you should do either the Batman Arkham series, Injustice series, God of War Ragnarök, or talk about Ethan Winters from RE7 to Village
The passion in the video earned you a sub today my guy. I can just imagine how much time and energy was put into this, keep it up
“Worthy of his hands” 😂 I love the commentary I’m sold. Subscribed 😁🤘🖤
Thanks fam
This was awesome. You explained the stories so well. Appreciate this since I recently got back into street fighter with their 5th entry and planning on getting SF6.
Thanks fam
Final fight lore would be dope af
This video was FANTASTIC! It came across my TH-cam feed and I gave it a spin! Thank you so much for covering one of my all time favorite games! Great work! Instant sub!
DAAARN MAN!! You Super Dope, I watched this straight tru! Big respect to you man, I learnt loads. Been a fan since the 1st Street Fighter. Keep this up, you know how to make a hour seem like 30 mins at most! Skill fam ..skills!
I love how fighting is just a job in Street Fighter
Word lmao
