I don't know about the rest of you but I LOVE the Street
Fighter video game series. I couldnt picture having a complete library of games without owning at least one Street Fighter game. So I have to ask you who your favorite chracter? From what game (be it Alpha, Super SF, or 3rd Strike, EX, and etc..). For me it would have to be Ken. In almost any game he is just my favorite character. So "come on!" who is your favorite SF character? and don't be shy to say whom!
Another random post from your friendly neighborhood

I've always been a Ken/Ryu man since the original SF2. Then when they decided to add slight differences to them in the later versions, I tended to prefer Ken a bit.
Of course, in the versions where Akuma is "too good" then he becomes my character of choice. C'mon, how can you resist the temptation to jump in the air and shoot TWO fireballs?! (Unless you have an aversion to being cheesy )

Zero, I doubt you need introduction on who i am...
And i sure as hell remember our battles. and i must say, even though you did take me to another level on Alpha 3, and even though you got plenty of good matches in that, i still can't believe i beat you with Sakura more then i did with ryu.... but anyhow,I am in good authority to state the other street fighter games your Ken has faced my RYU...
so lets go
so to add to the list...
But still.. i can't believe i took you to town using sakura
By the way. my screen name is ALPHARYU You get the point that i am a Hard core street fighter.

You know, I will probably get blasted for this, but I practiced and practiced and got REALLY good with Dan (SFA3), and he would be my favorite. Not much better feeling (in SF at least) than some cocky Akuma user thinking he;s gonna knock you off the machine, and you getting 2 perfects against him .

I tend to have a favorite picked for all incarnations of street fighter.
street fighter 2
Guile
The other incarnations of SF2
Sagat/Guile
SF alpha 3
Dan! (you are correct cartman, there is no better thrill than beating the snot out of some hotshot with dan the man. i love playing with one of my friends he likes to cheese with fei long, so when he does i wip out dan and it's over, lol)
SF3
Alex rules! so does makoto though i HATE gil, i mean... i will play the game up till i get to gil, he invokes the controller throwing syndrome and does not belong in a street fighter game, way too over powered.

now time to make this thread not load well for dial ups.
And to sum it up zero... after those 9 - 1 win games we had.. i rate your skill at.. well ken could say it best..

Ryu for me... always. I actually don't like playing with Ken much. Now I have a question... what's the best Street Fighter game available for the Dreamcast? I tried SF3: Double Impact... but didn't like it. I like the traditional SF2 characters. Can I find this on the Dreamcast?

Hey Auto!
The best SF game on DC? Well my friend you can't go wrong with SF 3rd Strike. I too tired of Double Impact but pick up again from time to time..although I would like to take back my opening sentence and say its a tie between SF Alpha 3 and 3rd Strike for DC.

the horror!
besides. asian was for your cheese combos. that were total cheese! you should have just played with Akuma if you wanted to cheese.
But still... Sakura of all people.. thats worse then you using dan.
Ahh that one reminds me of another character.. ROSE!
oh man the number of times i mopped the floor with you using rose.
memories..

and that SFTM game...man i still have that for Saturn (it was one of the only games released at the time and i also have to have every sreet fighter game) The arcade one was a little bit better...

.....
Ive never been to nationals, just some local tournaments. I frequent an arcade in Pasadena, but there no one plays 3rd strike. They usually play Capcom/SNK or Tekken Tag. And if you know me I got no love for Tekken Tag. Hardly anyone out here has any love for SF anymore, so Jack and I keep each other in check. And rather than get into a posting frenzy over whom is better I say just look me up, Im always looking for a good fight...even if I lose. If you trying to read too deep into that don't, Jack and I fight very differently. I look forward to your challenge.

Well since your in sacramento, if your ever near the area of Los angeles, drop on by for a battle. that would kick some arse playing another who is happy about his skills.
As for the tourny curcit goes, its dead for most street fighters. since many just love the Ultra cheese games like MvC2 (Which by chance, i have played Duc many times... sure he kicked my ass, but got to challange the best in the buisness) and the ever so lame Tekken tag.
Not really the best games to judge skill at.
anyhow. if your ever by the area, lets battle.
