Any fans of the Street Fighter series here? What was better, Street Fighter II or Street Fighter IV? Who's your favourite character? Is it the best fighting game series of all time? So many questions! ;)

I've just reviewed the newest entry in the series, Super Street Fighter IV, you can read that review here! Johnny Mercyside: Game Review: Super Street Fighter IV (http://johnnymercyside.blogspot.com/2011/10/game-review-super-street-fighter-iv.html)

Difficult question, because whilst Street Fighter 4 is a better game, I'd still rather play SF2. Fighting games have lost something over the years, even as they have become more technically adept. I guess the real hardcore fight fans prefer it this way, but the newer crop of fighting games are a bit much for the more casual fan.

Nothing wrong with that, but it does mean my interest has waned in these kinds of games. Because they require such dedication to master, and since RPGs also need this, I just don't have the time to devote to keeping up in both genres.

Anyway, I've always been a Ryu fan. I played him almost exclusively in the original SF2 and SF2 Turbo. Some claimed that Ken was just the same character but better, but I found that Ryu's quicker recharge on his fireballs made him a better all round fighter. As the series went on, and had spin-offs, the two characters became more unique (but I still always liked Ryu better - his Ice Dragon Punch is just awesome in Marvel Vs StreetFighter.)

Other than that, I always liked Sagat and Vega (the spanish bull fighter, not the pyscho-crusher guy - he's named differently in certain parts of the world). I don't really care for Akuma much, but the Raging Demon is such a hilarious move. BZZZZT - dead.

To play this game is passion for me and i am much amused from this game so it is great inspiration for me to play this game and i have played all the previous versions of this game so i am a loyal fan of this game.
