[quoteost_uid0="Dan Hibiki"]I'm sorry, but speaking seriously, Dan Hibiki is not the best by far in that game. Dhalsim and Akuma using V-ISM are the best.[/quote]
Using V-ISM.. it's really hard to tell who's the best...
I mean have you ever felt the 24 hit combo of Ryu's hop, step, kick and hadouken (in other words.. round house and hadouken :biggrin: ) Now that's really something..
Honestly.. .when it comes to close combat.. Dan Hibiki is not too shaby.. but he's just not well equiped to handle the strength of some of the other fighters..
Let me do a sort of review..
Akuma.. Talk about power.. This evil shotokaner's Instant hell murder, Shun goku satsu, Raging demon, stick a pop corn down your nostrills.. :biggrin: What ever name you wanna call it.. takes about 66.66% of your opponents life points.. It's a really terrible move once eckecuted nicely.. He has eckellent speed and he's air fireballs come in handy when playing defensively....
Unfortunately.. he takes damage easily.. just to compensate for the amount of power he possesses!
P.S. Notice that Akuma has some kinda cross over on Ryu and Ken's super... He does sort of a shoryureppa... but it's called Messatsu Gou-Shoryu and his version of shinhadouken known as Messatsu Gou-hadou...

Ryu HOSHI... another powerful character.. you'll notice that he's V-ISM combos aren't too shabby either and he also packs a lotta punches..he's speed is not too shabby.. though I wish he was a lot faster and he's dragon punch is just one back breaking hit (unlike the three that Akuma and Ken deliver)
He has a very very powerful hurricane kick *listens closely.. Shinku...Tatsumaiksenpukyaku* and it really hurts! He's also equipped with his trademark.. shinhadouken.. Another really devastating move that can really hurt!
He also does the shinshoryuken.. but it doesn't pack as much as the MvC or MvSf series..

Ah... and my favourite.. Ken MASTERS great speed.. incredible agility and stylish manouvres make him a very fun character to use.. He's equipped with eckellent dragon puches that blaze opponents.. :biggrin: very quick and powerful hurricane kick with just the necessary amount of fireballs needed to win a fight.. He can't a shinhadouken but His supers aren't too shabby either... Shoryureppa and Shinryuken.. go a long way in inflicting pain on the hands of the opponent! Shipu-Jinrai-Kyaku .. who can forget that... some massive hits that raises his opponents away from the ground for a while.. with his legs!.. In summary.. aneckellent character that fares well when played offensively!

Enough of the shotokaners!!
Let's talk about Charlie.. he's best played defensively.. so that after any mistake KAPOW!!! he punishes his opponent.. his moves aren't too shabby... but I frown at the whole charging combination.. gives the other characters a little advantage..He isn't too bad offensively.. and really packs a punch if the flash kick is used in good succession.
With some nice kicks and arguably the best *grab and throw* in the game. (back breaker! :biggrin: ) He has guile's trademark.. sonic boom and some nice kick combination as supers.. In summary.. you really need to master him b4 you can be very effective.. He'll be a nice blend to the SFO.. but I doubt ppl would be ready to start pressing back for 2 seconds anytime soon!

Now.. who else can I remember..
Ahh yes... Sagat.. mue tai champion..
B4 I go on.. I feel the major mistake Capcom made in the whole Sagat frame is his AI.. I mean the guy has long limbs and powerful hits with great combos (not to mention a 7 hit, cry all you want, butter the bread and take it to the house Tiger uppercut.. ) When fighting against the Cpu.. you fight a version of what we in this community call *Cheap* .. tiger high and tiger low.. tiger high and tiger low and when you jump close enough Tiger uppercut!..
I mean.. he's really good ifused offensively.. just take those long limbs to work and he'll be hard to stop!
Although I must say.. he does have nice moves.. not too quick but very strong.. Tiger crush ( a leaping knee and upper cut combo) and Tiger canon... (think shinku hadouken) complete his array of moves..

WOW... nough said! :biggrin:
But I'll try and review other characters in this thread in due time!... but I must agree with the fact that SFA3 was one of the best fighting game ever created!
