I see no Ryu on the list, so it's a fail, and what the hell is Baymen doing there? Kasumi would would been a better choice than him, LOL.

I like Nightmare, he's one of the better fighters in Soul Calibur IMO, but I like Taki a lot more, and she's more than just breast too you know.:P

I never played a Tekken game, and yes, I'm serious, but by looking at the box arts on the games, I should know he's the main character in the series, I just don't know his name.

Also, congrats to those who say Baymen is one of the worst DOA characters, Kasumi would had been a better choice.

No Captain Falcon=fail. He's the best character in Super Smash bros. and they didn't even add him in. Glad I canceled my subscription

Best Character in Melee. He's weak sauce in Brawl.

The total lack of Roger on this list is disrespectful. He's a &$*#ing boxing Kangaroo?!

I guess they meant most badass but if they were going by that why the hell aren't Iori Yagami and Terry Bogard there and why is Jin there instead of Heihachi :|

Either way my respect for Game Informer plummeted.

Ok make that 100%.

Play something else besides shooters wasdie..

Akuma is basically Ryu except way better so it's kind of pointless to have him and Akuma on the same list. in SF2 Akuma was god like in terms of power level compared to everyone else. Sucks he ended up getting nerfed in the later SF games though..

yea, I dont htink smash bros guys even can be on there, seeing as they didnt originate in fighting, other wise you might as well complain at DC, marvel, or capcom guys getting on it.
