SF2, SFA, or SF3 chars?

[Shinkuu Tatsumaki]

From which series do you guys think have the cooler characters? Well Alpha 3 kind of adds in most of SF2 chars.

Anyways, the Alpha series takes the cake hands down... Not to mention it has better music. (Alpha 3's kinda sucked though.)

Sometimes, I wish they'd remake Alpha 3 with SF3's game engine. :wonder:

[n8archer_XI]

SF3; better animated, and are bigger (easier to see detail)...

That would be sweet, but that would be alot of rewriting on the sprites [or however that works]. HD graphics SFA would pwnzersaurus-rextasisis though!

As for character wise, I was really a fan of SFIII. Hey, it had nice animation. G'times! :tup: [Makoto's bra when stunned...too bad seeing her get stunned is like seeing a unicorn break dance...IT RARELY HAPPENS! LawL. Yeah, I seen a unicorn break dance...then I woke up!]

[Lv.32 Z-Ism Rose]

Well, it kinda depends on what you consider "cooler".

I thik SF3 had the better drawn and animated characters.

A3 had some of the better designed characters. Characters like Gen, Guy, Rose, and Karin are extremely well designed. Gen in particular, since he has two playstyles in one character.

[woof]

karin

But SFIII utilized that new board [not familiar with it, but heard about it] which allowed Gill to have two colors, one facing right and one facing left. If any remakes of SF make use of that engine, it'll change the ways certain characters look. Sagat comes to mind [eye patch actually changes sides!], and...jeez, who else? Well they'd find some things to change. Plus SFIII character sprites were more detailed [SFA Ryu compared SFIII Ryu]. If they took the time to redraw every character with new animations and looks [just a dream], SF would prolly garner a bigger fanbase cuz of its impressive looks. Sex sells...sex cells...

[General Deamond]

I'd have to go with SFA. I thought the chars. were cooler overall although SF3 is the hotness today.

[GC!?]

alpha. though I like SF3 too because of ibuki and makoto~!1

[ObsidianZ]

SF3, just because they're so wacky, and some are based on chars from SFII.

GG is the only series I know of that has crazier and more bizarre characters.

*ObZ

[Radical Dreamer]

SF2. SF3 has quite possibly the worst cast of characters in any fighting game. We lose Dhalsim and get Necro. We lose Guile and get some Emo guy. What is this? If they ever make a new SF game, Yun, Yang and Makoto can stay; the rest of SFIII's characters have got to go.

[ObsidianZ]

^If you take away my Necro..... :annoy:

PinoAB7 is my idol.

*ObZ

[KrsJin]

I have big favorites in each, so I really can't decide lol.
Karin, Fei Long, Dudley are probably my tops.

[Shinkuu Tatsumaki]

I want to see the Alpha cast drawn SF3 style. That'd be hot.

Like Radical Dreamer said, SF3 has the worst cast of characters ever. Seriously, I don't even see how Urien, Gill, Q, 12, and Oro have anything to do with "street fighting". Those characters are characters you'd see in games like Mortal Kombat.

Sakura in SF3 style. =O

The only SF2/alpha characters i can see not coming back are the ones that died. Like Charlie and Bison/Vega I believe. And anyone else I'm not sure of.

What does a stretchy fire-breathing indian dude, a green-skinned jungle freak, a sumo wrestler, and an indian chief have to do with "street fighting"? Sounds like a warped version of the village people. Not that I'm ripping on SFII, it's just that your argument doesn't hold much merit.

3s characters are unique. I'm sick of all the variations of "Asian martial arts master" you find in other fighters. The variety is good. Varied characters to fit varied preferences in looks and fighting style.

Again, not ripping on alpha. I just like 3s better.

[woof]

yea dude i see people in speedos and first thing i always think of 'boy he should be in mortal kombat'

While SFIII has the quality animation, as far as coolness goes my vote is the Alpha series. The Alpha series chars weren't just cool, but very stylish too! :lovin:

SFIII was more like a return to the original SFII style.

[Biolink]

Sf3 because it has Yun and Yang

[tolkien]

spiderman LOL

[Kyokuji]

Yun, Yang and Makoto can stay

I think twins, Makoto, Ibuki and Hugo are the only ones who got much of a reception. People warmed up to Oro, Dudley, Q, etc., though.
I think Urien would've been pimp if they'd kept his suit on.

hahaha yea urien would be better with the suit

SFIII was more like a return to the original SFII style.

When was this?

[DietSoap]

SFIII has Alex, Ibuki, Makoto and Urien.

SFA had Birdie, Cody, Sakura (fuck the haters), Guy, Charlie, Rose and Rolento.

There. SFA3 is the best feeling fighter ever IMO... Too bad for crouch canceling and the tediousness that is learning X-ism.

[Spinning Beat]

I think Urien would've been pimp if they'd kept his suit on.

QFT!

It's really hard to decide:

SF2 has Sagat, Chun-li, Ryu&Ken, Gouki, Cammy, Balrog (Gigaton punch), Vega,

SFA has Gen, Sakura, Rolento, Dan, Rose, Doll Cammy, Shin Bison with the muscles, Karin, R.Mika (ass 4 days),

SF3 has the twins, Ibuki, Dudley, Sean, Hugo, Urien, Oro (fuck the haters, Kishin Riki all day son), Dudley, Necro, Makoto

While SF3 is my favorite street fighter playing style. SFA has wonderful characters but I like SF3 more. Not to mention I love cammy, they shoulda brought her back in 3s. Chun without Cammy is weird to me.

I have to say as characters Alpha takes the cake then 3, SF2's characters are too rehashed (even if I love them). 3 is definitely not the worst cast of characters in a fighting game. I hate when people use that as the basis of their argument to hate on SF3.

[Are_you_okay?!]

Why is SFA3 the better feeling fighter? Your only defense is more characters, CFJ had a lot of characters, and it's complete shit.

I'm going with SF3, I like the quirky and unique characters (Though JoJo does that better...).

Besides, Necro and Hugo are my main guys, can't let them down.

[polarity]

SFII designs are fucking horrible but people like them thanks to nostalgia + they've been around so long we're desensitized to how terrible they are.

SFIII had a few cool designs (twins, Makoto, Ibuki, Dudley) but the rest are horrible.

The Alpha series has by far the biggest collection of good character designs.

[squirtle.squad]

alpha 3!
i loved the character design and the ism feature.

an HD alpha > sf2t hd


i was never a huge fan of sf3, i hated the fight fx and sound fx.
also, they took away guy, sakura, and sagat in sf3

alpha had the best character selection imho

[Autocrat1]

R. Mika's thick booty > Dan >>>>> *

[DietSoap]

Why is SFA3 the better feeling fighter? Your only defense is more characters, CFJ had a lot of characters, and it's complete shit. No it's not, the game is different. Period. What's the question here?

Heh, I don't think you realize what actually went on there. With Gill, I'm pretty sure, is all they did was run an animation of him turning around then flipped his palette -- which I guess for whatever reason wasn't easy to do on other boards. The same couldn't be done practically for like... Sagat and stuff, sadly.

Well, I guess you could use some trickery with palettes to like.. make one eye black and change some special pixals to be his strap line but..... It'd probably look pretty shitty and would take too much effort.

[goodm0urning]

SFII has the coolest cast by far.

Not that I dislike the others. They're all very good. SFII's cast is just the best.

SFII designs are fucking horrible but people like them thanks to nostalgia + they've been around so long we're desensitized to how terrible they are.SFII's designs have not only stood the test of time, but they're the archetypes which most other 2D characters are based on. Nostalgia has little to do with it, considering most of the people who played SFII when it was popular are no longer playing it, and many of today's players were introduced to the series via non-SFII games.

[scum gale 88]

nobody should hate on the sf2 designs, theyre classics.
sf2 has it just right, the men are manly man fighters and the women were tailor made for hentai doujins

[Lvl.3]

Alpha 3 wins, biggest variety of characters, and most unque concepts. Plus the additions of the Ism's. I cannot believe all the eye candy whores in here saying 3rd strike. :razzy:


HOWEVER, SFII's characters are the most widely reconized out of all the series.

[Spinning Beat]

I still dunno why niggas hate on Oro, he fights with one arm because he thinks hes overpowered with two.

Badassssss. I wanna see two armed Oro, that would probably be the most broken shit ever. We've been cockteased with EX Kishin Riki and Yagyou Odama (EX yagou dama) as a display of power.
