(LAST UPDATE: 1/5/2010)

GENERAL/STORY:
A former assassin using a Chinese Ansatsuken art, Gen learned that he had a fatal disease. He decided to find a opponent strong enough to give him a death match. He found Akuma, but when Akuma realized that Gen was ill, he left. Gen found Akuma again, but didn't kill him. Gen is probably dead now. He's not the grandfather of Yun and Yang, but a friend of their father Lee. He's also a friend of Chun-Li's father and taught her some moves.

REVIEW:
If you ask me, Gen is one of, if not the most badass "old master" design in any fighting game due to his interesting story, personality, and moveset... He's also the only character in the SFA series with more than one stance, and one of the few 2D fighting game characters with multiple stances, so he's also an innovative fighting game character. 

He of course was pretty generic in his original Street Fighter debut, but his return in SF Alpha proved otherwise. Of course in Street Fighter IV; Gen was brought up to speed and turned out as badass as ever... Though I must say I very much prefer his old hairstyle.
