M.Bison aka Dictator from Street Fighter in the GA-HQ Video Game Character DB
Get lost, you can’t compare with my powers! M.Bison might be the most popular fighting game boss character besides Shao Kahn from the Mortal Kombat games. He was an unplayable boss in the original Street Fighter II (1990) and while he was playable in later updates of the game he returned often as Boss again like in Street Fighter Alpha (1995) and Street Fighter EX (1996) as well as a mid-boss in the Capcom vs SNK and Street Fighter X Tekken (2012) crossover fighting games. M.Bison was first teased to be in Street Fighter V in the Charlie Nash trailer..on a Tuesday of course. Design and move wise he was always pretty cool and fun to play and look at. His Psycho Crusher move is epic and was often used as a special move in very similar forms for other fighting games. Bison was featured in three of our Art Collaborations already with the first being the Boss Tribute Round I back in November 2011 and the big Street Fighter 25th Anniversary Tribute in Summer 2012. In 2017 we started another Street Fighter Tribute where M.Bison and his Psycho Power were not absent…of course. |
