From HORI
Specifically designed to enhance the fighting game experience. Replicating the look and feel of an arcade!
Dual licensed by Microsoft and Namco Bandai Games America Inc.
Arcade style controller for the Xbox360 featured with Soul Calibur 4 characters.
Recommended for Fighting, Action, Shooting, and Classic games that are available on xbox live.
This is the same stick that was issued as the Dead or Alive 4 joystick; the non-decorated version is known as the Fighting Stick EX2. The joystick has a nice soft feel -- very good for rolling quarter-circle moves. I've used it in Street Fighter Anniversary Collection as well as DOA4 and Soulcalibur IV; it's well worth the money and the build quality is quite good -- other EX2s I've used have had no problem over the long term with durability. Also, it's small enough to fit on your lap if you don't have a coffee table or TV tray. However, while this stick is excellent for fighters, it's not so good for classic arcade games like Ms. Pac-Man or New Rally-X -- the soft-springed joystick doesn't feel accurate in those games, which were designed with stiffer four-way sticks in mind. But if you use it with the games for which it was built, you'll be quite happy.
