Question Do you play female or male fighters first?

When you play a fighting game (Street Fighter, Guilty Gear X, Mortal Kombat etc.) do you play as the female or male figthers first?

For example, when you first played Street Fighter Alpha 2 did you select a male character like Ryu or did you select a female character like Sakura?

I have my answer, but I am curious what others think.

Since I mostly use Male character on my fighting games, of course I would start with a male character.

Depends on the game. For Street Fighter I usually pick male characters like Ryu, Ken, Akuma (yes, I'm a Shoto fighter ), and for a game like Vampire Savior I mainly pick Morrigan or Lilith. For Garou and SS4 I usually play male characters (Terry and Haoumaru, respectively). Not that I have anything against female characters in those games, I just go for whoever is the best fighter.

I select male characters at the first time. I seldom select any female characters and refuse to use those female characters with hentai looks, eg, the female characters in DOA series.

I'm cheap. Female characters first. I have a good excuse too: they usually play faster, and I like that.

So I guess you won't be playing the DOA volleyball game...

To be 13 and cautious...

So for my preference, when I'm done playing with the male characters, I use the female characters. Usually female characters have more speed than the guys but the guys have more power, and I'm a "more power" type of person... but I like to mix it up when I'm bored.

ROTFLMAO :rotf:

A typical K.I.L.E.R post.

Back to the topic. I don't select fighter because of their sex. My pick usually depend upon their agility and style.

Even though I'm a guy, I always go for the girl characters first. Also in PC and other type games (esp online) where you control appearance I always choose the female model. Why? Macho guys hate getting beaten by a girl, even if it is just a video game. Haha.
