Fighting game mecca Shoryuken polled over 5000 of its users on which character they used as their “main”, and the results are in, showing that more people play as Street Fighter’s pin-up boy, Ryu, than anyone else.
Coming in second was Bison, while in the rear was Dan. Poor Dan.
Sure, the results are coming in from a hardcore fighting community, but by September 2010, is there anyone but the hardcore fighting community still playing the game regularly?

I.e. is the Vega listed Claw?

I also like VEGA, who is about halfway down the list. And what the hell is GUILE doing so far up on the list? He seems like a pretty useless character to me.
