Street Fighter's Ken Cut From The Tournament For Obvious Reasons
With Ryu making the roster despite serious translation issues, there's absolutely no use for Ken in Pete Holmes' Street Fighter tournament.

Watching the BioShock Infinite demonstration at E3, I formed the mistaken impression that the thrill-ride skylines of Columbia had, within the game's story, always been intended as a primary mode of personal transportation.

Street Fighter: Beginning's End is a fan film with amazing fight choreography, some tight special effects, better than normal Ken hair, and a terrifically bad sense of timing, releasing the same week as the Capcom-sanctioned Street Fighter Legacy.

Yesterday's new costume and ultra combo trailer was nice, but a pair of fight videos featuring Super Street Fighter IV's Ken versus Adon and Ryu versus Cody are nicer still.
