the official 24/1/06 trivia thread

alcxxk [Edit] [Delete] 14:46, 24 January '07

in the scroll along beatemup arcade game Final Fight, the character Guy is based on Guy Picciotto of Fugazi, Rites of Spring, Blonde Redhead and Blood Brothers fame.

It says so on wikipedia.

also;
There are other influences on Final Fight from other sources of pop culture. Andore was a tribute to professional wrestler André the Giant. Despite their similarities, Andore and Hugo (from Street Fighter III) have never been clearly referred to as being the same person. Guy was based on Guy Picciotto of the American punk band Fugazi. Axl and Slash, were named after band members in Guns N' Roses. Poison got her name from the American glam rock group of the same name. Sodom got his name from a German thrash band. Abigail is a homage to King Diamond, as his name taken from one of his albums and Abigail's facepaint design is reference to him as well.
