Storyline:
I'll reiterate, stories don't matter much in fighting games! But, I will tell you about the new character back-stories nonetheless. Ryu has ultimately been corrupted by Akuma with Dark Hadou, the power that both Ryu and Ken are honed in, thus forming Evil Ryu; who wants to quench his new thirst for fighting to the death. Akuma has removed his prayer bead, a necklace that kept him from going insane with power and allowed his true power to show, thus Oni Akuma has been born; truly the evil incarnate. The twins Yun and Yang have come to fight in the tournament, because Chun-Li is fighting in this tournament and seeing as that's the case, they are naturally interested and want to test their own fighting strength.

Joining the prestigious ranks of Namco Funscape, Las Vegas Soho and The Four Quarters ; VEGA London (as it is known) is located in the basement of a building known from the outside as VEGAS. It represents the building’s video game arcade section (the ground level floor is populated with gambling machines, in a similar setup to the Las Vegas arcade in Soho). VEGA London is a miniature arcade, yes, but what it lacks in size it more than makes up for with in-demand arcade titles. Combine this with being situated in one of the most achingly cool neighborhoods in Central London (Angel, Islington) and you begin to appreciate what a formidable little pocket rocket this awesome little venue is".

I really appreciate what they have done with this game, I still get my ass kicked online but to master it I keep coming back.
Truly a challenge
