Default Arcade stick :( :( :(

Well seeing as we are currently getting bombed by fighter games is it too much to ask for a decent arcade stick? Japan and America have a couple yet here in Europe we have nothing!!!!

I am really pumped for Street Fighter 4 (and beware - I am GODLY at SF :P - Ex tourny player ^.^ ) *cough* anyway *cough*....

But I really want a good arcade stick. I will probably get the PS3 version as without a stick the PS3 control pad is a bit more sensitive and easier positioned.

In reality I would pay a good £50 odd for a really well built one.... PLEASE SOMEONE ANSWER MY PRAYER!!!

/Amen....

I haven't found any site that will send them over to the UK???

All the ones that are available here are really crap. Is the the game in a box one? I was looking at that; it looks fairly decent.

Again, link where specifically it can be purchased in the UK?

Also I didn't come across that one. I haven't purchased an arcade stick in a while. Last one I bought was a 3rd party one for the 360. the buttons are way to tight and the joystick is too loose to perform combos.

I will do another search myself but links would be helpful guys :p

I do use play.

Anyway no reviews of it and it has a very generic name which makes me weary about the quality, comfort and performance of it.

The SF one looks nice and will probably be decent just we don't usually see sticks like that over here.

Hori Arcade Fighting Stick (PS3): Amazon.co.uk: PC & Video Games

That is the only semi decent one I can find but it is rated as a casual stick which again makes me cautious about it's performance.

Well it depends on how seriously you play fighting games I guess.

I grew up addicted to arcade machines and local tournaments. If you look around the net you will start to see ratings and things regarding them.

Point of this topic was basically it's unfair Japan and America get decent ones whilst we get the bottom of the barrel half-baked ones.

(and yes I am an arcade stick snob!!!) lol
