Why is Street Fighter consider one of the best fighting series?

street fighter got less moves. kof got more moves. kof games is faster than sf4/super.

street fighter series got interesting characters like chun li and ryu. street fighter got kickass anime! im not talking about american-made hollywood movie... im talking about the anime made by a company called manga where it show chun li nude in shower. kick ass art and visual.

i like how street fighter 2 for super nintedo shows camera close up with big characters. kof 12 got it too but damm kof 13 took it away.

gameplay goes to kof. everything else goes to street fighter.

and ofocurse tekken is awesome! but jus cant compare to 2d fighter to 3d fighter. some people grew up where 3d fighter wasnt a hit. it have always been 2d..... old shcool fans of 2d play 2d fighter more. i like both 2d and 3d. i play tekken alot.

believe it or not i have never knew that we can juggle in street fighter games! ive been playing street fighter since 2 on super nintendo and arcade! back in the 90s.... and im 25 now. i have never knew street fighter games can juggle! untill internet is here and watch video online. when i play sf i always kick punch uppercut ec.t.. neve rknew juggle exist....

It is the deepest fighter. When you start it is easy to get in right away and paly and ahve fun, however there is so much to learn. Timing is crucial, and the combos are hard to pull off. it is one of the few fighters were the better player always wins. Mashing buttons always leads to losing. Knowing the special moves only gets you so far. There is so much to learn, and so much intricacies and so much depth to the fighting which makes it the best fighter.

Because there aren't that many fighting games?

KOF is a great series of games no doubt but I think it lacks the balance that Street Fighter has especially SSFIV. KOF maybe a little faster gameplay wise but not much. The only thing KOF does have is its easier to pull of moves but SF in my opinion is more rewarding when you pull of a move than it is in KOF. As Far as amount of moves I think its roughly the same characters in SSFIV have plenty of moves and combos.

Because you weren't their MAN!!!! Anyone who was around in the arcades back in the day gets it. Actually I haven't touched a fighting game like taht in years, you have to devote many hours of your life to be really good at a fighter. And their are ways to combat turtling you just have to figure it out.
