What's Your favorite SF IV Character?

[Zannah]

So I got my hands on a Street Fighter 4 Copy last Night. After acknowledging two very basic and well anticipated facts ( a) Controlling console-games with a keyboard is utter horror, and b) my boyfriend is way better in this kind of Games, than I will ever be), I found it to be quite fun, and even got attached to one of the characters, and learned her fairly well.

So I'd like to ask you escapists. who is your favorite SF IV character, and why -

For me, I go with Cammy, not only because her styles are actually possible with a keyboard, but also because the appears to be the only female character who a) Does not have a completely laughably terrible Haircut (Rose / Crimson Viper), b) Does not have elephant-legs and gorilla-hands (Chun Li) c) doesn't looks like an asian fourteen year old boy (Sakura).

Mighty Bison, all the way. But Cammy's pretty fun too, and getting a Bison costume in SSF4.

I couldn't ever play SF on a keyboard... It just doesn't make sense. I had enough trouble learning a stick, let alone dozens of buttons.

But she does have ridiculous man-abs...
The ninja girl and that girl with the weird eye seem to be the only properly proportioned characters.

My favorite is Dan Hibiki.
He's a fun character to play as, especially if you're good at playing as him.
Personally, I've grown a tendency to disarm my foe by using a super taunt and then comboing it straight into an ultra.
Speaking of which, Dan's new Ultra Combo in Super SSF:IV looks/is amazing.

My main is Blanka and Dan, so those two are my favourites.

I'm picking up fei Long too, but my all time favorite is still DAN HIBIKI!

 

[MiracleOfSound]

Sakura by far.

She's the only character I use.

She has all the best moves from Ken and Ryu and it's wonderfully humiliating to beat your buddies' Zangief/E Honda spamming using asses using a teensy schoolgirl.

There's only nine (OK, eleven but two are worthless, plus arrow keys), and I have them arranged in a very logical way, so I couldn't imagine doing it on a control pad. Except for Guile's moves, which are PHYSICALLY IMPOSSIBLE on a keyboard.

That said, I default to Cammy as well (easy, easy controls), put I'm partial to Sakura (small agile jumper), Chun-Li (easy but good combos, responds well to button-mashing) and Gehn (kicking people ten times mid-air FTW).

 

[Durxom]

I main Cammy, alt outfit #7 (Canadian Cammy =D) , and i want to main someone else...and I think its either going to be to be Abel or Dan the man.

Whoever has the biggest breasts.

You'll be rather disappointed, because big breasts aren't a focus. I think Rufus has the biggest breasts (yes, you read that right).

 

[Hiphophippo]

I used to think Akuma was awesome when I was much much younger. Now I'm just familiar with him. Maybe 12-15 years or so playing him...it feels weird playing other characters.

I'd like to branch out though.

Sorry, I got to it first.

 

[RagnorakTres]

Well, I haven't played SF4, but I have played the PSP SF3 Alpha game, and Charlie is ridiculous in that game. Love that jail-break masochist.

In the regular series, though, I'm pretty familiar with both Gouki, errr...Akuma and Guile. Ken and Thunderbird are my spare team, which is pretty fun to watch.

NOT MANTITS

God damn my eyes...

You asked for it. Play the game before tempting fate.

 

[Paragon Fury]

Cammy or Crimson Viper.

I still get stomperd either way. I've had the game since a week after it came out, and I have a record of exactly 5W/232L.

 

[Eremiel]

Chun Li. Easily.

 

[Deleted]

Crimson viper looks too much like Jesse from Team rocket for me to take her seriously.

BURN!

 

[Hiphophippo]

Cammy or Crimson Viper.

But I bet you enjoy it don't you? As an old SF2 arcade shark I still enjoy being beaten by someone clearly better than me. It's always a learning experience.

I couldn't say what my win / loss ratio is but I know I'm deep in loss. It's ok though, my battle points are nearing 1k and I'm pretty excited. (not that this matters in the slightest, but I like arbitrary numbers)

 

[Yukinari]

Id have to say Gouken and Dudley.
Well, Dudley will be in the Super version but its still Street Fighter 4.
