Product Description
The official Street Fighter IV FightPad controller for the Xbox 360 was designed specifically for fighting game fans to put new levels of control and precision in the palms of their hands. Using an enlarged circular 8-way floating D-Pad and a classic six-button layout the Street Fighter IV FightPad brings the old school fighting game experience right into your home. With separate turbo settings for each button and great ergonomics prepare yourself for hours of petition no quarters necessary.
Summary: Great Controller PCB for making an arcade stick 2010-03-21
Comment: I actually didn't buy this controller to use to play Street Fighter 4 as is. While it is okay-very good for playing SFIV and light years ahead of the default xbox 360 pad, I feel it is inferior to an arcade stick, and the pad it is trying to emulate, the dog bone shaped Sega Saturn Pad.
What I did use was the PCB (printed circuit board) to be used in a custom arcade stick. It was very easy for me to disassemble the game pad, and solder wire to the button signals for my joystick and buttons. Usually to wire analog triggers as buttons requires some difficult electronics hacking, but using this pad was a breeze because it is common ground and fully digital.

Summary: Great Controller! Perfect for Most Fighting Games! 2010-01-31
Comment: I absolutely recommend this controller if you want the best results for fighting games without buying a fight stick. The commands are entered in sharper and a lot cleaner than just the regular X Box controller.

Summary: Not for people with small hands 2009-10-03
Comment: The controller is light and feels cheaper than the original XBOX controller, but most important is that it's too big, and for small hands it's really uncomfortable and tires the hand after a short use in my experience, and the controller D-Pad lacks in terms of responsiveness.
The only good thing about the controller in my opinion is the buttons layout which is better for street fighter than the XBOX original controller, although the original XBOX controller D-Pad is more responsive and better in quality.

Summary: Good Controller for SFIV! 2009-08-11
Comment: This control pad works really well for SFIV. It reminds me of the old Sega Genesis 6 button controller from years ago.
It is a little big for my liking, and I have pretty big hands.
It also feels very cheap and hollow inside... I wish it was a little sturdier and heavier.
But overall it's a good controller that allows you to play SFIV in a more natural way.
