I have no trouble at all using the dpad on the ps3 controller, I actually prefer using it more then an arcade stick

i need the joystiq
aha
i got blisters on my thumbs already...
and being a zangief player
moves on the pad for zangief is like..impossible for me

i use the analog stick.... so much better then D-pad

it's so weird playing on a gamepad :S i just got raped coz i'm so not used to the controlls :S

i doubt it... i was at gamestop today (they are the same company as eb games) and they didnt have any. dude said that they will only be getting a few and they are all pre-ordered.


what is hell is ss?

they have gamestop in vancouver?

playstation analog sticks are way too loose for my liking, i prefer a more refined control with short precise movements.

are you getting one bro?

i dont know how many there are in the lower mainland but one just opened up on 8th ave & cambie. across from wendy's, its underneath a new condo building with a save-on-foods and home depot, etc...

gamestop is exactly the same as eb games though, same policies, merchandising, pricing, etc.

oh yeah.... i pre-ordered sf4 from they at the $69 price and when i picked it up today they gave me $10 back without me asking for a price adjustment or anything. dude said that the price had dropped.

i might buy the SF4 TE stick as well..
i unno..and then compare and sell one or the other..

Superstore:thumbsup:

Don't get the S4 TE stick. Lots of people have said that its an overpriced piece of shit

Anybody know where I can get a good hori stick locally?

Eb games is apparently the official retailer for HORI USA and the HRAP3 is available..
if not..crystal mall

Mad Crapz strikes again! Maybe their "re-birth" didn't go as planned...

FYI, did u guys know that Hori makes a limited edition SF4 joystick? I think I saw it on their site. Anyways it's a nice alternative to the Mad Catz TE stick but it's way too expensive. I think after shipping, duty and all (coming from Japan) you are looking at about $250+.

^ Yup its expensive

I'm in on the redflagdeals group buy for a dyi stick right now

there is the 19 page thread on Shoryuken.com about the defects lol

hmm
thinking about this..he makes it sound so easy
i kno nothign about electronics

I had the hardest time beating Seth with Chun-Li... I suck at executing her special :(

i got into SF4 a bit last night but nothing serious, tonight i played through it a few times and holy shit the d-pad sucks balls. my timing is off, some combos/moves are hard as hell to do, and it hard to do the 3 button moves. im giving up on SF4 until i get my joystick tomorrow.


yup but this thread is on the standard fight stick ($70).... are there wide spread issues with the tournament edition fight stick ($190) ?


do you know how much this group buy will be? if the price is good then hell yeah guys jump in on this deal. if not then grab an HRAP3.

omg online is just gay.... fags just disconnect when u are pwning them to avoid getting a lose
and i only get like 30 points for winning and like 90 points for losing....

I thought they fixed it so you get a win anyways? You get more points if you win against a higher ranked player, and lose more points when you lose to a lower ranked player. I was 4-0 and then I got my ass handed to me like 5 times against Blanka :lol

Yeah seth is a bitch especially after you beat him 1 round. I find that doing the charge move supers and ultra's are easier then doing the double fireball ones. I usually do a combo with a fireball then link it to a super or ultra :thumbsup:

heres the limited edition sf4 hrap3 (pn# hp3-52) and the "special addition" version of the hrap3 (pn# hp3-53). both of these are japan only releases. the hp3-52 is just a regular hrap3 with sf4 artwork, if you are lucky enough to find one expect to pay about $200. the hp3-53 is an hrap3 with the "special addition" of sanwa buttons, expect to pay about $250.

i added her on psn and i lost... shes good with zangief lol

I got so sick and tired of fighting Seth, I put it on easiest and 1 round just to unlock Akuma and Gouken. This SOB knocked me out with his throws and I had to restart :(
