I've always liked Scorpion from Mortal Kombat (his spear attack and phantom punch are totally bitchin') as well as Sub-Zero.
And I remember playing as Jago from Killer Instinct a lot.

I really enjoy playing Mitsurugi from Soul Caliber. He has been a great character in every version. In the fourth game, though, some of the characters who emphasize speed over brute strength begin to come into their own, and Seung Mina and Yung Seung begin to be really fun to play.
Unfortunately, that is only due to special matches and the character creator. in a normal match, Mitsurugi is my only choice all the way.

In Tekken, I am a particular fan of Nij (isn't he called Raven? Stupid google search) the ninja, though this is partially because I haven't had as much time with Tekken as I have had with Soul Caliber, and I don't know the characters as well.

And though I'm not a real fan of Mortal Kombat, I do slightly enjoy playing Mortal Kombat vs. DC, and using Batman to beat the living daylights out of Superman.

And Ike in SSBB, though only because I played Fire Emblem and knew the character.
I don't recommend Fire Emblem, by the way. Just... don't play that game.

First, the ones I don't play all that often, so Street Fighter (Sakura; Yang and Makoto if SF3), King of Fighters (Kim and Chris), Marvel vs. Capcom (Sakura, Servbot, Sonson), Virtua Fighter (Aoi and Lion).
Finally; someone other than me that references Virtua Fighter!

Still haven't gotten that far in Tsukihime yet D= -needs to play it more-

But what I found out from some random wiki searching, I was intrigued o-o

I don't know if I super spoiled myself, but...
a vampire..or was it a demon, who holds 666 demons within his body, can use them at any time, and cannot die unless all of them are killed, seems pretty nifty to me

Gah...I really need to start playing Tsukihime and Melty Blood more x-x;;

Well, like with Tekkaman and Zero, i don't use him cheaply.
But, i know EXACTLY what you mean.
Cable is hard for me to use and i HATE HIM.
Almost as much as Saki.
I just need to practice as him.

Captain Commando and War Machine was my main team in the First Marvel VS Capcom.
I only started with MvC2
You should give the older ones a try.
Marvel Super heroes VS Super Street Fighter is a really good one.

Totally forgot one!

Virtual On: Fei Yen. Because I like playing speedsters, I like blasting people with hearts, and I typically form attachments to female fighting game characters...even absurd ones, like giant robots. Alternate: None, because I haven't actually used anyone else.

Start writing it then hahahaha.
Already have. I'm stuck on evaluating gameplay. I'm used to reviewing a <url=http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/326.128851-TYPE-MOON-reviews-Tsukihime>far <url=http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/326.135672-Neutral-Drow-reviews-A-Drug-That-Makes-You-Dream>different <url=http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/326.148564-Neutral-Drow-reviews-Little-My-Maid>sort of game, after all!

To be honest, I've only played a very tiny bit, but that was enough for me to form an attachment to Aoi.

Vampire. He's one of the 27 Dead Apostle Ancestors (there'd be 28, but certain DAAs are idiots, so Tsukihime's main villain is unnumbered). That's not really a spoiler, don't worry.

Chun-li. Street Fighter 2 was my first fighting game, and she was the only girl character, which was a big deal to me back then. The only other playable girl I've ever seen in a game up until then was Barbie, and the game involved four levels of maneuvering her around obstacles as she took a walk. >>; But here was Chun-li, fighting with the guys, and she was cute and badass at the same time. She's been my favorite ever since.

Street Fighter Vs X-Men was also cool.
Actually, the original X-Men fighting game was pretty cool too.

The only one I don't like is the new one MvC2 for the PS3 and 360. Stupid dumbed down control scheme. Almost everything is fireball motion (d,df,f + P or K)and why they would remove the MK and MP buttons after all these years is beyond me.
The 2.5 one right? My brother(who had the PS1) had it. I sucked at it.

You know, I could probably go on all day. Fighting games are one of my two favorite genres after all, and I very, very rarely play just one character. Oh well, let's see how this goes...

First, the ones I don't play all that often, so Street Fighter (Sakura; Yang and Makoto if SF3), King of Fighters (Kim and Chris), Marvel vs. Capcom (Sakura, Servbot, Sonson), Virtua Fighter (Aoi and Lion). Now, onto the show.

Arcana Heart: Fiona Mayfield. Slow but powerful striker (I don't play grapplers that well), and kinda cute besides. Alternate: Petra, for looking like she's from a Quentin Tarantino production of Swan Lake and wielding dual energy pistols.

Favored arcana: Tempestas (Wind) and Orichalkos (Metal).


Melty Blood: Kohaku. Because I like hitting things with brooms, and she's my favorite character from Tsukihime. Alternate: Hisui and Kohaku, twin maids unite!


Capcom vs. SNK: Hibiki. Because <url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2ghZxB3oLY&feature=related>No Fear Feint owns you. Alternate: Yun, because calling on his brother for a teamup super is farking sweet.


Smash Brothers: Link, Link, and (Dark) Link. Various reasons. Alternate: Pikachu (64), Pichu (Melee), and Olimar (Brawl).


Soul Calibur: Raphael. Range, power, and style...at least, in SC2 which I still play. Alternate: Amy.


Guilty Gear: Axl Low. Because I like fighting from the other side of the screen with a blatantly implausible weapon. Alternate: Eddie, for being a friggin' shadow creature.


Tekken: Armor King. Because Japanese pro wrestling moves are fun in arcade games, and he looks badass. Alternate: Xiaoyu, because I like using small Chinese girls to beat people up.


Fate/Unlimited Codes: Assassin. Stylish, huge melee range, great spacing techniques, really cool super, and one of my favorite characters from Fate/Stay Night. Alternate: Archer, because he's fucking Archer (and I absolutely love pulling off Unlimited Blade Works in a fight).


Naruto: Clash of Ninja: Shino. Because killing people with insects is just fun. Alternate: Hinata, for being my favorite Naruto character who I can actually use well (sorry, Gaara...).


I'm probably forgetting a few. Name a fighting game. Other than Mortal Kombat (don't like it) and Killer Instinct (never played it).

Nvrnqsr Chaos from the Melty Blood(/Tsukihime) series

His demeanor, his ability to juggle well, and just his all around many different ways he can attack. It's just so much fun playing as this guy xD
For even knowing that series, I award you a cookie. For picking Nero of all people, I wish to <url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XnfX1qz4E20>smack you with my broom.

Then, when I remember that he's voiced by Jouji Nakata, I apologize.

I still need to play Arcana Heart.
So far Kamui Tokinomiya and Saki Tsuzura are looking to be my style.

Ken is my Main Street Fighter.
Ibuki and Charlie are next.

I dont Blame you for your Naruto choice.
Shino is a lot of fun, he feels like a faster Garra to me.
And besides, who wouldn't like to take out their opponent with Cyclone of bugs?
I like Garra in Con3, they made him a tad faster.
Hinata is fun as well, i like that her moveset lets you get around an Opponents Guard.
If you ever Get Naruto Clash of Nin 3 for the wii you better give your FC.

Axl is a lot of fun but too slow for my Tastes.
Aside from Johnny i like Ky and Baiken.
Baiken is a beast, and she is based of Kenshin.(Awesomeness)
