Credible leaks from within the video game industry have alerted us to the existence of Sony's upcoming hardware revision, the PSP Go! What we don't yet know is how well this new device will be able to hold up against the onslaught of hackers, or whether, like the PSP 3000, homebrew enthusiasts will be unable to have their way with it. So far, Sony has been very successful at reducing the amount of piracy on their device and locking hackers out of new versions of its hardware.
Unlike Sony's currently bulletproof PSP 3000 design, however, there are a lot of factors working in favor of the hackers who might attack the PSP Go!. First of all, the device is about as radical a redesign as one could imagine for the PSP lineup. It repackages the oblong PSP as a smaller, more svelte handheld device - one that truly might be able to fit in our pockets. In order to achieve this comfortable size, Sony has had to sacrifice the UMD drive, long a bulwark of the PSP design. As a result, there are many potentially new areas that hackers could explore to open up the system. For example, the on-board flash memory and downloadable business model offer more vectors of infiltration for homebrew hackers.
UMD disks proved relatively easy to crack and dump onto memory stick, so the move to a digital distribution model doesn't necessarily present a new security flaw. The problem is what Sony decides to do about all of those UMDs already in circulation at retail. If the company devises a new method of authenticating and crediting customers for old UMD games and allowing them to download those titles to their PSP Go!, this could present a new security weakness. What happens if hackers find a way to generate UMD product codes or trick kiosks into allowing them to download free copies of old UMD games? What if hackers found a way to reproduce the download and installation process for new games, effectively bypassing the PSN store altogether? Whatever Sony decides to do to appease fans of the UMD format, it will have to act with one eye on security.
Another potential weakness with the new hardware remains the firmware that will run the core applications on the machine. While we've heard a lot about the PSP Go! hardware specs, we have not heard as much about the software that will power the device. That is because Sony is likely to use the same firmware family that currently powers the regular PSP (albeit with some changes). This could make life easier for homebrew hackers, since they are already intimately familiar with the inner workings of Sony's official firmware. A number of known exploits such as the buffer overflow, Tiff image and savegame exploits that enabled software hacking of the PSP-1000 might resurface on the newly-released hardware. Furthermore, differences in the file structure between PSP Go! firmware and that used on older models can be compared to identify potential security weaknesses.There is good news for Sony: The PSP 3000, which contains hardware security on the motherboard, has valiantly resisted the intrusions of hackers for more than a year. That shows the company has learned from its earlier mistakes and has found some cutting-edge strategies that work against even the most determined reverse engineers. Another potential boon is that one old attack vector - the "Pandora" battery exploit, will probably disappear with this revision. Sony is likely to use a smaller and more advanced battery technology in the PSP Go! and service mode activation may not even be accomplished via the battery with the new hardware revision.
Despite Sony's best efforts to combat piracy, the future is still uncertain for its PSP Go! hardware. One potential place to look for guidance is Apple's iPhone platform. What many people don't know is that the device is easily hacked, and piracy of App Store products is actually a major, unreported problem. What keeps most mainstream users honest is the fact that Jailbroken phones cannot benefit from all of the many official features of the device, suggesting that an effective panacea to piracy is providing a streamlined, killer online ecosystem that users are willing to pay for.
Pagi itu pagi minggu. Cuaca cukup sejuk sehingga mencapai takat suhu beku. Sebab itu saya tidak mandi pagi sebab air kolah jadi air batu dan air paip tidak mahu keluar sebab beku di dalam batang paip. Pagi itu saya bersarapan dengan keluarga di dalam unggun api kerana tidak tahan sejuk. Selepas itu emak saya mengajak saya menemaninya ke pasar. Tetapi saya tidak mahu.
Selepas emak menikam perut saya berkali-kali dengan garfu barulah saya bersetuju untuk mengikutnya. Kami berjalan sejauh 120 kilometer kerana pasar itu letaknya 128 kilometer dari rumah. Lagi 8 kilometer nak sampai pasar saya ternampak sebuah lori kontena meluru dengan laju dari arah belakang.
Dia melanggar emak saya. Emak saya tercampak ke dalam gaung. Dia menjerit "Adoi!". Lepas itu emak saya naik semula dan mengejar lori tersebut. Saya pun turut berlari di belakang emak saya kerana takut emak saya melanggar lori itu pula. Pemandu lori itu nampak kami mengejarnya. Dia pun memecut lebih laju iaitu sama dengan kelajuan cahaya. Kami pula terpaksa mengejar dengan lebih laju iaitu sama dengan dua kali ganda kelajuan cahaya. Emak saya dapat menerajang tayar depan lori itu. Lori itu terbabas dan melanggar pembahagi jalan lalu bertembung dengan sebuah feri. Feri itu terbelah dua.
Penumpang feri itu yang seramai 100 orang semuanya mati. Pemandu feri itu sangat marah. Dia pun bertukar menjadi Ultraman dan memfire pemandu lori. Pemandu lori menekan butang khas di dalam lori dia..lori itu bertukar menjadi robot Transformer. Mereka bergaduh di udara. Emak saya tidak puas hati. Dia pun terus menyewa sebuah helikopter di GentingHighlands dan terus ke tempat kemalangan. Dia melanggar pemandu feri yang telah bertukar menjadi Ultraman itu.
Pemandu feri itu terkejut dan terus bertukar menjadi pemandu feri semula lalu terhempas ke jalanraya. Pemandu feri itu pecah. Pemandu lori sangat takut melihat kejadian itu. Dia meminta maaf dari emak saya. Dia menghulurkan tangan ingin bersalam. Tetapi emak saya masih marah. Dia menyendengkan helikopternya dan mengerat tangan pemandu lori itu dengan kipas helikopter. Pemandu lori itu menjerit "Adoi..!" dan jatuh ke bumi. Emak say menghantar helikopter itu ke Genting Highlands. Bila dia balik ke tempat kejadian, dia terus memukul pemandu lori itu dengan beg tangannya sambil memarahi pemandu lori itu di dalam bahasa Inggeris.
Pemandu lori itu tidak dapat menjawab sebab emak saya cakap orang putih. Lalu pemandu lori itu mati. Tidak lama kemudian kereta polis pun sampai. Dia membuat lapuran ke ibu pejabatnya tentang kemalangan ngeri itu. Semua anggota polis di pejabat polis itu terperanjat lalu mati. Orang ramai mengerumuni tempat kejadian kerana ingin mengetahui apa yang telah terjadi. Polis yang bertugas cuba menyuraikan orang ramai lalu dia menjerit menggunakan pembesar suara. Orang ramai terperanjat dan semuanya mati.
Selepas itu emak saya mengajak saya ke pasar untuk mengelak lebih ramai lagi yang akan mati. Di pasar, emak saya menceritakan kejadian itu kepada penjual daging. Penjual daging dan peniaga-peniaga berhampiran yang mendengar cerita itu semuanya terkejut dan mati. Saya dan emak saya terus berlari balik ke rumah. Kerana terlalu penat sebaik saja sampai di rumah kami pun mati. Itulah kemalangan yang paling ngeri yang pernah saya lihat sebelum saya mati.

Alkisah. Seorang lelaki A datang berjumpa dengan seorang perempuan. Perempuan yang paling 'hot' di kampusnya, kerana memiliki rupa paras yang fotogeniklah katakan, cantik, menawan dan yang paling orang suka dia ni seksi dan berada. Tapi sayang, dia bkn muslim.
Saya malas mau tulis panjang lebar. So, dialog ringkas sajalah(tak juga ringkas nie). Tapi sebelum tu, biar saya bagi tau korang ciri-ciri lelaki A tu. Lelaki A merupakan anak seorang Dato' entahlah Dato' apa. Saya pun tak berapa tau. Yang penting mamat ni kaya, kacak, bergaya. Nak gi kampus pon pakai kereta mewah, dah tu ada drebar pulak. Fuih, sape tengok, melopong je lah.
Alice: Apasal awak datang nak jumpa saya?
Lelaki A: Saya dah jatuh cinta kat awak.
Alice:(memandang lelaki itu dengan sinis) sebab?
Lelaki A: Kerana awak cantik. Sesiapa yang memandang awak sekilas pasti tak puas. Sudikah awak jadi gf saya?
Alice: Tapi..
Lelaki A: Jangan risau Alice. Saya ada segala-galanya. Harta..kebahagiaan..dan apa je awak mintak, saya boleh bagi.
Alice: Maafkan saya, saya ada kuliah. (perempuan itu sengaja membuat dalih)
Seminggu kemudian. Perempuan 'hot' nie di datangi seorang lelaki lagi. Lelaki B. Yang ni, penampilan dia agak islamik'. Pakai baju Melayu siap bersongkok pulak tu. Tapi, hati dia kita tak taukan. Apa-apa pun, kenalah bersangka baik.
Alice: Ha, ada apa erk?
Lelaki B: Assalamualaikum. (ucap lelaki tu lembut)
Alice:(agak terkedu seketika) Waalaikumsalam. Kenapa awak datang nak jumpa saya?
Lelaki B: Saya...saya...
Alice: Kenapa? cakaplah..
Lelaki B: Saya jatuh cinta kat awak..
Alice: sebab?
Lelaki B: Perlukah bersebab?
Alice: Ya. Sebab saya tak pernah kenal awak, tau2 awak dah jatuh cinta..
Lelaki B: Baiklah, saya cintakan awak kerana Allah telah ciptakan perasaan cinta dalam hati saya untuk awak.
Alice: Owh. (Perempuan itu melihat jam tangannya) Maaflah, saya ada study group. Lain kali kita borak lagi.
Maka tertinggallah lelaki B keseorangan tanpa jawapan dari sang gadis itu.
Seminggu yang seterusnya, perempuan itu didatangi oleh seorang lagi lelaki. Lelaki C. Kali ini, lelaki C berpenampilan biasa dan sederhana saja. Wajahnya juga tidaklah sekacak mana namun ada sesuatu pada wajah itu. Entahlah apa. Perempuan itu mengulum senyuman manis untuk lelaki itu kerana dia pasti bahawa lelaki ini pasti akan bercakap benda yang sama.
Lelaki C: Assalamu'alaikum.
Alice: Wa'alaikumsalam. Saya tau kenapa awak datang nak jumpa saya..
Lelaki C: (Termangu seketika) Awak dah tau?
Alice: Why not? Awak cintakan saya?
Lelaki C: Ya, saya menyintai awak.
Alice: (tersenyum sinis) Well, kenapa pulak? Sebab Allah telah menghadirkan perasaan cinta kat dalam hati awak untuk saya?
Lelaki C: (hanya mampu tunduk)
Alice: Kenapa diam? atau..awak jatuh cinta di sebabkan rupa saya..atau saya ni seksi..atau..saya ni anak orang berada..
Lelaki C: Demi Allah, semua itu tak betul.(Lelaki C berubah menjadi tegas). Ya, memang benar saya jatuh cinta kat awak tetapi bukan kerana Allah atau kerana kecantikan awak, harta awak.. saya jatuh cinta disebabkan Syaitan Durjana. Syaitan yang mendorong saya untuk mengejar awak. Kemana saja awak jalan, mata saya akan mengekori awak. Tatkala rambut ikal awak terbang ditiup angin, saya rasa perasaan saya kacau.Wajah cantik awak sentiasa datang bermain di jiwa saya pada hal saya tak menginginkannya. Saya rasa rimas dengan perasaan saya. Saya semakin hanyut. Semakin terleka.
Alice: (terkedu) Apa awak nak?
Lelaki C: Saya tak mahukan apa-apa. Mungkin hanya sekelumit simpati. Hanya kalau awak sudi. Maafkan saya, saya mohon untuk berlalu.
Alice: Nanti dulu, siapa nama awak? Macam mana saya nak tolong awak?
Lelaki C: Nama saya, ah, tak layak saya nak beritahunya kat awak. Sesungguhnya nama yang saya pinjam ini sungguh mulia. Saya pasti awak tau apa nak dibuat. Maafkan saya, saya tak sanggup nak berlama-lama di sini.. Syaitan itu sentiasa membisikkan perkara yang jahat ke telinga manusia. Salamu'alaikum.
Alice hanya melihat langkah lelaki itu tanpa sepatah kata.
Dua tahun kemudian.
Akif merehatkan dirinya di pelantar rumah sambil menghirup udara segar pagi. Tiba-tiba dia disapa oleh ibunya.
Ibu: Akif, ibu teringin nak tengok Akif berumah tangga. Akif tak de ke pilihan hati Akif sendiri?
Akif: Entahlah ibu. Susah kita nak mencari pasangan yang betul2 berdiri di atas landasan yang teguh.
Ibu: Akif, ibu faham. Memang susah nak cari orang yang seperti itu, kalau ada pun, nisbahnya kecil. Manusia makin hanyut ditelan arus dunia. Semakin moden, semakin lupa tanggungjawab kita sebagai muslim. Tapi Akif, kita juga boleh menjadi pengubah.
Akif: Ibu.. Akif faham. Insya Allah ibu, Akif akan cari seorang perempuan..jika dia tak seperti yang Akif harapkan, Akif yang akan membentuk dia, mengubah dia. Akif akan cuba laksanakan permintaan ibu.
Ibu: (tersenyum) Akif, ibu rasa, ibu sudah berkenan dengan seorang gadis ini. Dia baik dan manis juga orangnya. Pekerjaannya juga mulia. dia bekerja sebagai seorang guru di sekolah menengah agama. Ibu dah berbual-bual dengan ibu bapanya. Baik sungguh mereka itu.
Akif: Siapa dia ibu? siapa nama dia?
Ibu: Nur Alissa Zakiyyah...
Seminggu sebelum hari pertunangan. Waktu itu, Akif berada di rumah Nur Alissa Zakiyyah. Baru kali pertama Akif ke sana. Rumah yang dijejakinya ini sungguh besar dan luas. Halamannya juga menarik bersama landskap yang begitu teratur. Bunga-bungaannya memukau mata. Suasana agak hingar-bingar. Ibu Akif berada di dalam rumah mungkin sedang sibuk membantu mereka yang lain menyiapkan juadah makan tengah hari bersama.
Akif berjalan menuju ke suatu sudut di halaman itu namun langkahnya terhenti apabila terlihat seorang gadis bertudung hijau lembut sambil mengenakan pakaian baju kurung..entahlah baju kurung jenis apa yang penting ianya gubahan moden seiring mengikut zaman. Gadis itu seperti pernah dilihatnya di dalam sekeping gambar. Gambar yang diberi ibunya. Mungkinkah itu bakal tunangnya?
Akif memberanikan diri untuk menyapa gadis itu.
Akif: Assalamu'alaikum.
Alissa: Wa'alaikumsalam. (Alissa tersenyum lantas membelakangi Akif)
Akif: Awakkah Nur Alissa Zakiyyah??
Alissa: Dan awak pula Akif Rahmankan?(soal Alissa tanpa menjawab pertanyaan Akif terlebih dahulu)
Akif: ya. Akif Rahman Bin Razaq. Awak belum jawab soalan saya..
Alissa: Hum.. akhirnya...
Akif: (Akif hairan) Kenapa? Pernahkah kita bertemu atau berkenal?
Alissa: Ya.
Akif: Siapakah awak? (tanya Akif penuh kehairanan)
Alissa: Nama saya Nur Alissa Zakiyyah binti Aziz. Sayalah Alice.
Akif: (terkesima) Subhanallah. Awak dah berubah, saya langsung tak cam awak. Macam mana awak boleh jadi macam ni?
Alissa: Bukankah awak yang meminta sekelumit simpati dari saya?
Akif: Alice...(terharu..)
Alissa: Akif, saya dah jatuh cinta kat awak. Dah lama..
Akif: Sebab?
Alissa: Saya mencintai awak kerana agama yang ada pada awak...
Akif hanya tersenyum.. :)

I think lyrics need to rhyme
And you’re not asking
But I’m trying to grow a moustache
I eat cheese, but only on pizza, please
And sometimes on a homemade quesadilla
Otherwise it smells like feet to me
And I, I really like it when the moon looks like a toenail
And I love you when you say my name
If you wanna know
Here it goes
Gonna tell you this
The part of me that’ll show if you’re close
Gonna let you see everything
But remember that you asked for it
I’ll try to do my best to impress
But it’s easier to let you take a guess at the rest
But you wanna hear what lives in my brain
My heart, will you ask for it, for your perusing?
At times confusing, slightly amusing
Introducing me
Doo doo, doo doo doo doo to
Doo doo, doo doo doo doo to
La la la la
La la la la la la la la, da
I never trust a dog to watch my food
And I like to use to the word ”dude”
As a noun, or an adverb, or an adjective
And I’ve never really been into cars
I like really cool guitars and superheroes
And checks with lots of zeros on ’em
I love the sound of violins
And making someone smile
If you wanna know
Here it goes
Gonna tell you this
The part of me that’ll show if you’re close
Gonna let you see everything
But remember that you asked for it
I’ll try to do my best to impress
But it’s easier to let you take a guess at the rest
But you wanna hear what lives in my brain
My heart, will you ask for it, for your perusing?
At times confusing, possibly amusing
Introducing me
Well, you probably know more than you ever wanted to
So be careful when you ask next time
So if you wanna know
Here it goes
Gonna tell you this
The part of me that’ll show if you’re close
Gonna let you see everything
But remember that you asked for it
I’ll try to do my best to impress

Introducing me
"Ryu" (リュウ, "Ryū"?, written as 隆 in the original Street Fighter) is a video game character created by Capcom, the main protagonist of the Street Fighter series.[4]
Premiering in the first Street Fighter, Ryu appears as the lead character from the game along with his best friend Ken participating in the Street Fighter tournament. Further games from the series show Ryu to be highly focused on his training, aiming to become the strongest he can. However, his powers also attract several criminals who want to use him for their plans.
Ryu has been the lead character of the Street Fighter series since the first game and has appeared in crossovers involving the franchise. He is also featured in manga from the series, anime adaptations and the 1994 live-action film. According to most fighting game fans, Ryu is arguably the most recognizable and influential fighting game char
In the first Street Fighter game, Ryu has black hair and wears a tattered white karate gi with a red hachimaki (headband), red gloves and red shoes. Also, a constant trait in his design is the Fūrinkazan (風林火山?) kanji motif (meaning Wind, Forest, Fire, Mountain), battle standard of the historical Japanese military leader Takeda Shingen, embroidered into his obi, simulating Karate Dan degrees.[5] In Street Fighter II Ryu is shown to be older, with brown hair and a red hachimaki. He also fights barefooted this time.[6] The Alpha series features a Ryu much like the one depicted in the original Street Fighter, with light red hair and a white hachimaki. In the Street Fighter III games, Ryu has black hair and facial stubble to show his growth in age. Street Fighter IV is chronologically set between II and III and so Ryu has a more mature look than he does in Street Fighter II but still not as aged looking as in Street Fighter III.
Because he was the only playable character in the original Street Fighter, Ryu's designer, Manabu Takemura[7], wanted to make him easy to identify with. In Street Fighter II, the character was selected for inclusion due to his presence in the first game, symbolizing the concept of a Japanese martial artist. As the series progressed, the design was made more muscular to coincide with the concept, while his white gi, considered his most defining characteristic by the development team, was meant to let viewers know he was "a karate master at first sight".[8]
Both Ryu and Ken are practitioners of a martial art rooted as an assassination style. Both Ryu and Ken learned their art from Gouken, who refined the style as a purely combative non-killing style. When Capcom localized the console versions of Street Fighter II in North America, Ryu and Ken's common fighting style was listed as Shotokan Karate in the game's instruction manual and related literature (although the term was not used in the Japanese version).
Ryu debuted in the first Street Fighter as the primary playable character in the game, with his best friend, rival and sparring partner Ken serving as the second player's character. He and his rival Ken (who both trained under the same master, a character later established to be Gouken) compete in the tournament depicted in the game in order to test their strength against the tournament's champion, Sagat.[9]
His next appearance was in 1991's Street Fighter II. Set several years after Ryu defeated Sagat in the first tournament, Ryu participates in a second tournament, inviting his old friend Ken to compete against him. In his ending in the game, Ryu wins the tournament against Sagat and M. Bison, but does not stay for the ceremony, already seeking his next challenge and leaving the player with the quote "The Fight Is Everything". This ending defines Ryu's characterization as a "wandering warrior".[10]
Ryu's backstory, along with those of other Street Fighter characters, would be explored in the subsequent Street Fighter Alpha prequel series. The first game, Street Fighter Alpha: Warriors' Dreams (1995), features Ryu confronting Sagat as his last opponent in a rematch following their first fight.[11] Street Fighter Alpha 2 (1996) depicts Ryu on a quest to confront Akuma, his master's brother and enemy. After their match, Akuma reveals that Ryu possesses the "evil intent" or "Satsui no Hadou[12]" within him, the same power Akuma uses.[13] An alternate version of Ryu using this power is featured in the game as hidden character (see Evil Ryu).[14] In Street Fighter Alpha 3 (1998), Ryu is sought by Bison, who seeks to use Ryu as his next host body. With the help of Sagat and Sakura, Ryu is able to defeat Bison, who promptly retreats.[15][16][17]
Ryu and Ken would return in Street Fighter III (1997), with a new character named Alex serving as the new lead character. It was followed by Street Fighter III 2nd Impact and Street Fighter III 3rd Strike. While Ryu's motivation in the game and rivalry with Ken would remain the same, he was also shown getting acquainted with several of the new characters featured in the game, such as becoming a tag partner for Hugo in 2nd Impact or Oro's pupil in 3rd Strike.[18][19] Ryu appears in Street Fighter IV, which takes place after Street Fighter II but before Street Fighter III.
Ryu has appeared in spinoffs related to the main Street Fighter series such as the Street Fighter EX series produced by Arika.[20] Byron Mann portrays the character in two separately produced video games based on the American film of the series, both titled Street Fighter: The Movie, where he wears Ryu's characteristic white karate gi and red headband.[21]
In the Street Fighter Alpha series, there is a selectable version of Ryu known as Evil Ryu (殺意の波動に目覚めたリュウ, Satsui no Hadō ni Mezameta Ryū?, lit. "The surge of murderous intent awakened in Ryu", abbreviated Satsui Ryu in Street Fighter Zero 3). The concept of Ryu succumbing to the "Evil Intent" (殺意の波動, Satsui no Hadō?, lit. "Surge of Murderous Intent", sometimes translated as the "Dark Hadou"), the same power used by his nemesis Akuma, was first explored in the Street Fighter Alpha manga authored by Masahiko Nakahira. It was not until the international versions of the game, Street Fighter Alpha 2, that Evil Ryu was introduced as a secret character in the games. Evil Ryu wears a dark grey gi and possesses a faint red glow in his eyes.
In the same way Ryu is the lead character for most of the Street Fighter games, he is also featured as the protagonist of all Japanese animated productions based on the franchise. In the 1994 film Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie, Ryu becomes the target of Bison's organization. Bison captures Ken and brainwashes him, forcing Ryu to fight his former friend, but Ken manages to resist Bison's brainwashing and the two ultimately work together to defeat Bison. He was voiced by Kōjirō Shimizu in the Japanese version and Skip Stellrecht in the English dub.[30]
Ryu was played by Byron Mann in the 1994 film version of Street Fighter, where Guile is the lead character. Ryu (given the surname "Hoshi"), and Ken are traveling con artists who steal money from rich crime lords through schemes such as selling modified toy guns. He and Ken eventually work with Guile to infiltrate Bison's headquarters.[31] By luring Guile to Bison's base, Ryu plays an important role in Bison's downfall, although it is Guile who ultimately fights and defeats Bison. Ryu also appears in the US TV series. In both these media, his name is pronounced as "Rai-you" (IPA: [/ɽaiju/]) instead of its traditional and more accurately pronounced "Ree-you". Guile and Bison are the only characters who pronounce his name correctly in the film.
The premise of the 1995 Japanese TV series Street Fighter II V centers around a young Ryu and Ken, who travel the world with Chun-Li to improve their martial art skills by challenging other Street Fighters, such as Guile, Fei-Long, Sagat, Dhalsim, Vega, Balrog, Cammy and Bison. He was voiced Kōji Tsujitani in the Japanese version and once again by Skip Stellrecht in the English amaze dub. While in the ADV Films dub he was portrayed by Brett Weaver and then later by Tommy Drake.[32] The American Street Fighter animated series, which also debuted in 1995, follows a loose combination of the depictions of Ryu in the live action movie and in the games. Ryu is once again a traveling con artist, paired with Ken, but like in the games, he is also dedicated to his training. Originally, Ryu and Ken were supporting characters in the series, but later episodes focus around the duo. He was voiced in the series by Tony Lung.[33]
The 1999 original video animation Street Fighter Alpha: The Animation centers around Ryu's inner conflict with the Satsui no Hadou, as seen in the Street Fighter Alpha manga and games.[34] The 2005 OVA Street Fighter Alpha: Generations features a similar storyline, but is unrelated to the previous Alpha anime.[35]
UDON's comic book adaptation of the Street Fighter plot places Ryu in the center of the events of the comic. Ryu grows up training in the art of Shotokan and all the while fighting off the urge of the Satsui no Hadō. He trains to be a strong fighter without relying on the hatred and consumption it brings. After returning from the first Street Fighter tournament, Ryu discovers that his master (Gouken) has been slain by his brother (Akuma) and sets out (along with Ken Masters) to avenge his death. Like in the Alpha series, Ryu is a target of Shadaloo as a powerful fighter who shows great potential and this draws the attention of Interpol and more specifically, Guile, who believe there is a criminal connection between the two.[36] He also trains Sakura during the second arc of the comics and later on trains with other fighters (specifically Dhalsim and Gen) to give himself a better chance against Akuma.[37] Like the official story, Sagat is consumed with thoughts of revenge against Ryu for taking his honor at the first Street Fighter tournament but he does seek him out to warn him of Shadaloo's advances.[38] During the final series of comics, Ryu attends Bison's tournament and advances all the way to the final stage (including getting his long-awaited rematch with Sagat). However, before he is able to fight Bison, Akuma intervenes and soundly defeats Bison instead. The plot then shifts to the battle between Akuma and Ryu as the concluding fight of the comic series. During the battle, Ryu is tempted to give into his dark intent to defeat Akuma at any cost but refuses, which allows Akuma the upper hand. All seems lost but at the very last moment, Gouken's spirit is revived and he finishes the battle with Akuma. Ryu passes out before the fight can conclude and is rescued from the sinking island by Dhalsim. Following the battle, Ryu's mind is finally freed from the Satsui no Hadō and he believes he no longer needs to rely on it if he wants victory.
Despite not appearing at all in Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun Li, Ryu is mentioned at the end of the movie as a formidable Japanese fighter entering a tournament.
Jon Foo played Ryu (given the surname "Takashi"), in Street Fighter: Legacy which was co-directed by Joey Ansah and Owen Trevor
