Somebody poisoned the waterhole!
Number 7!
Ryu
Company: Capcom
Main Series: Street Fighter
Coming in at number 7 is Ryu from the widely known Street Fighter series. Next to everyone has played atleast 1 round of Street Fighter, it has ruled the fighting genre for over 10 years. The original street fighter first hit the arcades in 1987, and although it wasn\'t the more impacting game, it still made a small impact. The game had two playable characters, 1st player:Ryu and 2nd player: Ken. These two characters would serve as some of the most memorable fighting characters, and characters in general. The game has was difficult, Hadoukens and all Ryu\'s main moves were special moves, so they were insanely difficult to perform. In 1991 Capcom released the sequel into the arcades, and the game would shape the direction of the arcades for nearly a decade. Ryu became a fighting game icon, even to the point of rivaling companies copying his character design (Snk). The game would rule arcades over the next 5 years, each yeah coming out with a new version with new characters and or features. It wasn\'t until 95 that a prequel was made to the series in \"Street Fighter Alpha\". Ryu and Ken have appeared in every Street Fighter game to date, their simplistic yet complex gameplay will be familiar in any street fighter you\'re playing. Street Fighter 2 wouldn’t get a sequel until 97, when street Fighter 3: The New Generation was released. Even to this day a completely new 2d street fighter hasn’t been made after 98. Ryu has made his home in the Capcom Vs. series and other rehashes.
The list only gets better :bounce:
I\'ll also be doing the \"worst character ever award\" at the end of the countdown :bounce:. Anyone think they know who that would be?

Number...Uh 6?
Crash Bandicoot
Company: Naughty Dog
Series: Crash Bandicoot
Poor, poor Crash. Crash takes the number 6 spot, but oddly he\'s the only character on the list in which I hate the newest games of. The Sony Playstation was having some problems getting well known companies to make games for their console, so early on they turned to new series made by companies that worked alongside Sony. Naughty Dog had some experienced creators onboard, they were actually influenced to make a platformer starring a animal by a producer of Sonic The Hedgehog. Crash Bandicoot came from this idea in 1996. Sony\'s bandicoot went head to head with the original platforming icon himself: Mario. Crash Bandicoot proved to be a fair competitor as it was one of the earliest 3d platformers to be a major seller. Crash Bandicoot, along side other icons, set the way for other 3d platformers to follow. The following year 3 years of Crash 2, Crash 3 and Crash Team Racing would prove to be Crashes biggest and best years. Crash was a gaming icon, unofficially the mascot of the thriving Sony Playstation. Unfortunately, Naughty Dog sold the rights to Crash Bandicoot, sending him over to companies such as Universal Interactive and Vivendi Universal Games. Crash would only spiral down a long hill of decline, starting with his first venture on the PS2 \"The Wrath Of Cortex\", which showed the difference in companies. Crash would then star in a series of Gba games which had minor success, but they could never match the first 3 games of the series. Poor bastard….
Alrights, number... 5 tomorrow :bounce:
