Darth Avlectus Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 I have always thought this to be an interesting question and wanted to see what my fellow LF'er crowd thought. For those who have laid eyes upon the origianl SF2 mugshot, you know what I am talking about. His uniform, his dimeanor, even his bio in all its revisions sort of hints at this. Even the plots: he is a dictatorial minded type bent on world domination. Unknown age and origin. Personally I think he is modeled after the Nazi troops from the days of Hitler. In fact, color in a Hitler 'stache on his face, and replace the winged skull with a swastika on his cap. On a comedic side note, I saw this guy before I ever saw a picture of Hitler. So when it came to this in my history class I exclaimed "It's M. Bison!" upon seeing Hitler's picture for the first time. EDIT: Not quite the pic I was looking for but it'll do for now.

LordOfTheFish Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 He does seem to resemble a Nazi. I don't know that his appearance, and personality were purposely based around that of Hitler's, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quanon Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Perhaps the "evil" Hitler and other dictators where scource to create this boss. But honestly, I don't remember to see Hitler having this big bust of muscles or that sort of squarre jaw Really most military forces have that kind of cap.

Prime Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Hitler would never be seen without the mustache. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ctrl Alt Del Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 He resembles. And Indiana Jones has proved that Nazis or anything that relates is easy to hate. Besides, shooters go with one of those options for foes: aliens, zombies or nazis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kjølen Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 I thought he was Russian. In videogameland, the Russians are in cahoots with the nazis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
