[HELLOTHERE]

in the story it said that ken was better than ryu and the dragon upper cut thind and ryu was better at fireballs and it also said ken was a show off so that was his weak spot when fighting and it said that ryu was patient and non show off.

Ken would win this if it were a popularity contest but.. Ryu is probably the better and Ken is more my favorite.

[quoteost_uid0="DA_VIPA"]nuh uh ..akuma id say is the worst of the 3! speed will always own power. but really it depends on the way u fight but ryu is by far the best character il show you how:

ryu
strength:5
speed:5
compatability:10

akuma:
strength:8
speed:3
compatability:9

ken:
strength:3
speed:9
compatability:8

this shows that ryu is by far the better of the 3 becoz he's is the balanced char ..if he isnt stronger than akuma he sure is faster and if he isnt as fasta ken he's much stronger. so he' has a upper hand on both the other shoto's[/quote]
ya ripped that from a playstation mag

well eney way ryu and ken ok thay are both identical in strenghth it all depends on how the user uses them

Don't you realize after playing this game that a simple projectile can stop anything.

Haven't you noticed the flaws in attacks by now.

Ryu is a perfect character.He can defeat you from a distance and in your face.

My favorite characters are=

Ken Masters
Dan Hibiki
Cammy
Vega.

But I realize at the level of a person equally skilled as you and lets say your very skilled a character without decent projectiles vs. a character with projectiles will fail.

All a skilled or even a #### player would have to do this pummel the other player with is projectiles.

With or without lagg....seriousily ken or any other character is no match for ryu.....=/

==============================================

<span style='font-size:17pt;line-height:100%'>The only way ken could beat ryu seriousily is if he could perform a shinkuhadoken.In which he can....but he has to be partnered with Ryu...........Ken is stronger with Ryu....Ryu remains the same...when partnered with ken but can perform the double shinkuhadoken just like ken can with Ryu. together they are awesome.....=/</span>

this topic is worthless. this needs to be locked.

^^^ Yeah.. sure... after everyone else read ur point of view without that of others.. *sigh*

Anyway.. this bickering has been going on for too long.. and personally.. I think it's cool :biggrin: ..
I like Ken.. he's my favourite character... I mean.. you can't deny the flair of Ken's moves.. style, poise, agility.. you name it.. He's one of the elite characters. :biggrin:

Anyway.. Ryu and Ken differ in various ways.. though they're both shotokaners.. they differ in their methods of excecution.

On one hand you have ryu whose bent on perfecting skill and more of substance over style, on the other hand you have ken who goes for style over substance..

Concluding that one is better than the other one.. is utterly vague.. but it's something I wouldn't mind saying.. just b'cos I like Ken.. this also goes for the person who created the topic. :biggrin:
So.. if you're into a character who has more speed and just lots of flashy combos.. then you'll love Ken.. and if you're well.. *cougH* into style over substance, then Ryu is the man for you..

BUT.. professionaly speaking.. as the tactical aspects of the game begin to unfold, you'll notice that Ryu has a little bit of advantage.. He can inflict pain from far range, and also.. close battles.. making him really handy.. Ken, on the other hand.. needs to be close to inflict any real damage..
So.. whichever one you think you can masters.. *cougH* I mean.. master.. good for you! :biggrin:

ok, sbyrd5 you seeem to think that whatever we do in this game ryu is always gonna win it. which is false !

see a ryu user against a cyc|ops or sentinel users don'T even stand a chance if all he does is HADOKEN is way out which is what you suggest people to do.

hadokens here can't block beams and we got two beamers here !
yu see this game maybe was ryu based at first, but with lag going down by a lot since the game started, this lead to the fact that even close range fighters have a very good chance of defeating any other long range users, that's why wolver
