Fuck IGN.
ign is stupid
this list is just trash
I’m glad I’m not the only one who caught that 
Fuck IGN, indeed. I think I should call him out on that kanji mishap, since he seems so sure that the kanji on the Akuma’s back means evil (?) or demon (?) which humourously enough are two different kanji altogether. On top of that, they look NOTHING like the kanji for ten (?). How do you make that kind of mistake? …and then publish it for the world to see? 
Might as well put Terry Bogard as the number 1 Street Fighter.
ARE YOU OKAY!? BUSTAH WOLFFEE!
ryu at #1. who didnt see that shit coming?:rolleyes:
fuck ign
that comment made me lol hard. :lol:
guile 2nd

stupidity
Street Fighter 3: 3rd Smack, Fight For The Next Generation.
numba 1 fighta
“Seriously, though, did you expect anyone else to fill this slot?”*
Ryu 4tw :woot:
I’m still laughing at the idea that someone seriously thought Urien or Hugo would even make the list.
Someone should tell Sirlin to stop doing c. MP then.
whats up with Terry begin in the link image to the top 25 article???
Hey, Ryu the truth. He should be number 1 on everyone’s ST list.
ha, they got a new image, When the day 1 choices first came out, Terry was on the image.
Bob Sagat’s Ultimate Street Fighter Character Top 25!
#25 -Urien- Street Fighter III: Triple Impact
Even though he’s one of the worst Street Fighter characters ever (his Aegis reflector is just USELESS!), we’re adding him to this list because he has the balls to fight in a thong! Good luck beating anyone with him, but if you do, they will be humiliated to the point of suicide. Joke character at best.
#24 -Dudley- Street Fighter III: First Attack
Fares not much better than Urien in the gameplay department, but at least he’s wearing clothes! His only saving grace puts him ahead of #25 is his Coarse Counter attack that’s super cheap.
#23 -Yun- Street Fighter III: Double Strike
Chun Li’s oldest son plays pretty much like her: he’s fast and cheap, but lacking in strength. He has virtually no useful normals and is very rarely picked in professional matches. He has a sort of custom combo super that’s designer solely for players who want to look flashy rather than play seriously.
**
#22 -Yang- Street Fighter III: Second Turbo**
Youngest of Chun Li’s two sons, Yang plays very similar to his brother. He places higher on the list in terms of popularity.
**
#21 -Hugo- Street Fighter III: Super Impact**
As if Zangief wasn’t useless enough(he can’t even jump over fireballs!), Hugo is even worse, if you can believe that. Will Capcom never learn? He’s slower than any character ever, looks stupid, but has great idle animation.
#20 -Elena- Super Street Fighter III: Triple’
Looks like the female version of Urien, but with some surprisingly nice animation, especially her idle loop! She fights using breakdance moves, but since this was never intended to be used for kombat, you can guess how good she is in a match.
#19 -Alex- Street Fighter III: Champion Generation
Ken’s father finally made an appearance in the third game! He plays more like Fei Long than Ken though.
#18 -Makoto- Street Fighter III: Grand Master X
Basically, she’s SFIII’s Sakura. Her animation is better than that of any Disney movie ever, especially that of her hair band that she uses in her special attacks!
#17 -Necro- Street Fighter III: Three
We can’t take it anymore… We gotta spill one of Capcom’s best secrets: Necro is an exact copy of Dhalsim, specifically, Dhalsim’s SF I version. If you’re familiar with Dhalsim, you shouldn’t have any difficulty picking this guys up. You should also know that it will be impossible to win any match, because everyone knows Dhalsim is the worst character in SF history.
**
#16 -Q- Street Fighter III: Two**
Q’s official bio states that he’s Blanka, trying to fit into normal society by wearing a mask and a trench coat. Just keep hitting your opponent relentlessly with electricity and when they least expect it, finish them with a head bite!
#15 -Twelve- Street Fighter III: Alpha
Definitely one of the best characters of SFIII in every way. Most popular character in tournaments, this character looks like he crossed over from a Darkstalkers game. He can use his X-Copy super to change into any other character and with his fatality, he can steal your soul.
#14 -Chun Li- Street Fighter II: Turbo Fighting
We know there’s lot of people who’d want her to be higher up on the list, but let’s face it: You only want that because she’s smoking hot. As hardcore gamers, we like to judge by gameplay more than looks and it is in this area that Chun Li falls short.
When she first appeared everybody wanted to play as her, hoping to catch a fleeting glimpse of her panties flashing on screen.
As the years went by, people stopped picking her because she just didn’t have what it takes to be a Street Fighter. Especially in Street Fighter III: Next Age of Heroes, only people with a lot of confidence would dare to try and win a match using her.
#13 -Cammy- Street Fighter II: Hyper Viper Z
Another hot girl. Even though she suffers from the same, hot looks, but useless gameplay-problem that Chun Li has, Cammy was a definite step up.
Her Spinning Knuckle attack(fashioned after Michael Haggar’s spinning Lariat) was easily abusable, resulting in an easy win for whoever managed to get a first hit in.
#12 -Sodom- Street Fighter Alpha: World Warrior’s Dream Match
Samurais’ are awesome!
#11 -Birdie- Street Fighter I: A New Hope
Another fan favorite, this guy fights in the SF tournament to win money, in the hopes of finding a cure for his sickness.
#10 -Ryu- Street Fighter I: Grand Champion Hyper Edition
How could we not include SF’s flagship character?
The key word is: simplicity.
**
#9 -Ken- Street Fighter I: Mister Miyagi’s Challenge**
He lacks Ryu’s headband, making him even more simple. Simplicity.
#8 -R. Mika- Street Fighter Alpha Zero Dash
The ‘R’ stands for Restricted! This babe has humongous breasts with hearts on her nipples! She attacks with her butt! She’s a freak and deserves to be in the top 10!
#7 -Allen Snyder- Street Fighter EX Battle Network
TRI-PU-BREAK! FIYA-BALL!
#6 -Sakura- Street Fighter Alpha Mega Ultra
Imagine Ryu in all his awesomeness and simplicity, but you can also see up his skirt. Yep, Sakura has it all. In one of her win poses she loses her shoe and it’s really funny.
**
#5 -Terry Bogard- Street Fighter I: Return of Bison**
The only character to have appeared in every SF game. Great character and a great sport too, because he has a move which starts with him asking if you are okay and he says it with this thick Japanese accent, like: “AH YU OKAYE?!” Other famous quotes of his include: “YOU CANNOT ESCAPE WRONG DEATH” and “GO HOME AND BE A FAMILY, MAN!”
#4 -Gill- Street Fighter III: The Dark Knight
Being Urien’s distant cousin, it’s no surprise that they share similar moves. First appearing in a later iteration of SFIII: Grande Slam Masters, this guy’s got everything; fire and ice attacks, the ability to revive, you name it! If only he didn’t fight in the same thong as his counterpart.
PRO TIP: Pick this guy and you can’t lose!
#3 -Skullomania- Street Fighter XD
One of the most celebrated characters of the SF franchise, Skullomania started the trend of designing characters in the likeness of celebrities. Modelled after the late Marcel Marceau, all of his moves derive from the art of mime, like using invisible walls as force fields against incoming attacks.
#2 -Dan- Street Fighter Alfalfa 5, Super Genki Rainbow Edition
Another lookalike, this time owing his appearance to none other than Steven Seagal. Best used at long range. This fighter is just as humiliating to lose to as Urien, because of his pink gi and never ending taunts. As opposed to Urien though, Dan sports a wide variety of original, high damage moves that can take out any opponent.
#1 -Sawada- Street Fighter: The Game: The Movie: The Game
We saved the best for last. Now here’s a guy you don’t wanna mess with!
Taken straight from the hit movie that’s adored by hardcore Street Fighter fans all over the world, this guy combines everything about fighting into one awesome, shirtless package.
In terms of design, he’s got everything going for him. He’s asian, so he’s a great martial artist. We already covered the shirtless part. In fact, the only clothes he’s wearing are combat boots and camouflage pants. Talk about simplicity in design! He’s not sporting too many details, but at the same time, he’s not too bare bones either(face it, the guy’s just two steps away from being another Urien).
On top of everything else, he’s got a light saber! Combine this amazing weapon that should have been in Street Fighter from the very start and shared by all the characters, with the awesome juggle system from the arcade smash hit Street Fighter: The Movie: The Game and you’ve got a character that deserves to be at number one of any list, even ones that aren’t about games!
This shit is so boot, you can wear it on your foot.
LOL, I thought this was the first post on this thread.^^
I got worried for a moment.
edit: Q for numba 1 !
Bob Sagat killed it. Funniest thing I’ve seen in a long time.
I think Bob Sagat’s list was more accurate than IGN’s. GO BOB 
I’m looking forward to see what you think the top video game characters are.
Bob Sagat needs to go and kick IGN’s editors into the streets b/c they just lost their jobs to him…
