Ryu's victory quotes never mock or belittle the opponent. They're just stoic musings and aphorisms. That's why I love Ryu.

[@edwardgaines6561]

You love Ryu because he doesn't brag about victory and doesn't sulk on defeat?

Ryu is my favorite character in the whole series some might say he is inferior to ken and that is everyone opinion but to me ryu is better then ken and that's my opinion.

[@dutchbungis006]

[@who7111]

@@hankscorpion I mean yeah but hard does not necessarily mean good, vf is super complicated at times and super demanding, does that mean it’s the best fighting game ever, no. I’m not saying vf4 is bad, just that third strike is in my opinion a bit better because it makes you think about things in different varrying ways, and gives you the ability to do so intuitively. Most other fighting games are very hard to get into the thinking bits, but sf3 makes you hardwired to do this in no other way ive seen a fighting game do. There's a reason why when you play third strike for a bit, then go to take a break, you physically WANT to go back, like your body is going back with out even thinking.

My favorite of all the Street Fighters. Call me crazy but I like that SF3 has no characters from SF2 except for Chun Li and Akuma. That is the tradition of SF. When a new SF game comes out you get a complete new cast of characters so the game can stand on its own two feet. The only character from SF1 that made it to SF2 was Sagat.

By far the best Street Fighter ever! I wish the new games didn't base the characters on stereotypes, for example them having extremely large muscles. The characters in this game look so much better.

[@cjronetwentyseven2937]

What do you mean exactly though?

[@TheSonic497]

Except Capcom is known for giving most of their male fighter characters big feet, big hands, and beefy bodies. Alpha 3 Sagot and Bison are prime examples.

[@Unethical.Dodgson]

"I wish the new games didn't base the characters on stereotypes, for example them having extremely large muscles." WTF does that even mean!? And how do they not have extremely large muscles in the older games!? You are on crack.

[@cjronetwentyseven2937]

I sort of kind of get what you're probably saying. In the Street Fighter ll games you can basically say the characters look more life like and realistic. The Alpha series (and of course SFlll games but still sort of combines the realisticness with the cartooness looks) looks even more cartoony like. p.s. - Street Fighter lll just continued to do what SFll did combining the SFll with certain SF Alpha mechanics. Because it looks just as "cartoony" but still a bit more realistic compared to Street Fighter Alpha games as pretty much how the Street Fighter ll games displayed themselves.

[@akexkdffakdkwicdfkkdkk7343]

Cao Cao Unsolicited essay time. The muscles get closer to elite bodybuilder size every SF, and arrive in SF5. Muscles like that will actually make your striking less effective, and you don't get to keep all of that into old age - but you can, keep all your flexibility and technique memory in your muscles. For these reasons, traditional martial arts doesn't go past carrying water buckets, or using wrist/ankle weights i.e. while practicing technique. 👌
