You idiots I can't believe some of you prefer Street Fighter 2 over Street Fighter 3!
No that was just a joke (Even though I still think Street Fighter 3 is better). Anyway:

(Mine: Street Fighter Alpha or maybe the vs. series) What is your least favorite Street Fighter game? (Street Fighter 1) (I haven't played it but after all I heard about it it's my least favorite for sure.) What is your least favorite Street Fighter series? (Mine: The Street Fighter 2 series What is your favorite versus game? (Mine: Marvel vs. Capcom 2) What is your first Street Fighter game? (Mine: Street Fighter 2: Hyper Fighting) How many Street Fighter games have you played? (Mine: Not quite sure at the moment) Who is you favorite Shotokan fighter? (Mine: Akuma)

I'm probably several years late to this thread but still trying to revive my enthusiasm for SF as of current, now with the release of the online edition to SF3 for 2011. Here are my responses to the OP.
What is your favorite Street Fighter game? Probably a toss-up between Alpha2 and SF3: 3rd Strike
What is your favorite Street Fighter series? Alpha + Vs (Umm, does Darkstalkers count?)
What is your least favorite Street Fighter game? Alpha
What is your least favorite Street Fighter series? SF4++
What is your favorite versus game? MVC (the very first one .. becuz part 2 and 3 were ridiculous and out of focus with the excessive characters)
What is your first Street Fighter game? Super SF2 (SNES)
How many Street Fighter games have you played? All (except the first one and the EX series)
Who is you favorite Shotokan fighter? Sean!!! I know everyone says he's the worst character to play with, but I've mastered his playstyle, and able to compete against the higher tier characters. SEAN FTW!
Are you serious about Street Fighter Alpha 3. You can't be a Street Fighter fan and not like that game. How can you not like it!?
Alpha is boring, so is II. SFIII 3rd Strike, CVS2 & MVC2 are where its at for most depth & fun/options etc...
I'm sorry, I know this is old, however this quote is way, way, way, way off here.
No way is 3S even remotely near Street Fighter II in terms of strategy vs strategy and overall game quality. In fact, no other Street Fighter game even comes close to Street Fighter II.
3S with the addition of parries was the most overpowered universal option, which devalued the game to a poor let's all just hug each other and play fighting game. No more long, mid-range strategies etc, etc, I could go on, however 3S is definitely not in the top most strategical SF games ever made.
The overall best Street Fighter game ever conceived was Street Fighter II : Hyper Fighting.

Well, V-ism does have the custom combos, but your attacks do less damage so it makes up for it somewhat. There are plenty of people, myself included, who personally don't like using V-ism.
For what specific reasons do you dislike the original SF2, Kokoro?
btw, good to see you, Aqua Team! It's been a while.

I personally think that Third Strike and Alpha 2 were the best. I like alpha 3 as well, but the overall nerfing of things like Alpha Counters as well as the dominance of V-ISM kind of hold it back.

Actually, Street Fighter 2 (Hyper Fighting version) was the first one I played. I know many people like Street Fighter 2, but I strongly disagree.

I suppose a lot of the big fans of SF2 grew up with it. Going back after playing the later games, I can see why you might not appreciate it as much.

I think the best would be between Street Fighter 3: 3rd Strike and Alpha 3. I have grown to like older games in some franchises, but I just still can't get into Street Fighter 2 that much.

That's your opinion and you're entitled to it, but I would strongly disagree. SF2 and SF Alpha 3 are the best of the series.
