no doubt the Ryu fanboy's are bashing him as we speak! but how can one pass on this stylish, yet fragile fighter?

well, unless you're spitting this out from simply a fanboy standpoint, I ahve to say you're right.

It's a fact that, in many street fighter games, Ken is overall superior to Ryu in competitive play.

They are very similair in the first titles, but in 3rd Strike, for example, Ken is by far superior

I always thought kens flaming uppercut and his kick combo were way more awesome than ryu's boring powered up hadouken. But then again Ryu is the big bro of the duo and deserves people to respect his authorita!!

Kens the BEST

I always saw Ken as the cooler one of the two and the better one to play as (for me at least).

Ryu is the stronger character, the only reason why people say"Ken" is because of his personalty.
