Best arcade stick in this price range,

This review is from: Xbox360 Fighting Stick VX (Accessory)
The Hori Fighting Stick VX is probably the best bang for the buck in the under 100 dollars price range. It has a six button layout and square gate joystick. These are not "real arcade" parts like Hori's more high dollar line of products or the Mad Catz TE sticks but they are very good, especially considering the low price. The stick is designed to work for Xbox 360 but it will also work with Windows PCs so you can play games with it in programs like MAME and GGPO.
It may not be the best stick in the world but it's well worth the money and is relatively upgradeable. Modders may want to know some of the following: Underneath the hood this stick has common grounding and two separate PCBs, screw holes pre-drilled for mounting a custom stick, with all the buttons and wiring well labeled.

Bang for Your Buck!!,

I own the PS3 Fighting Stick V3 and love it!! So I recommended this stick to a friend of mine who only has a 360. My friend loves fighting games but played them on pad controllers. Since I introduced him to arcade style sticks he has fallen in love with them. He really likes the response of the stick and buttons, and the turbo functionality. The weight is nice and light making it easy to transport and the sleek design and six button layout give it the comfort and accessibility to execute moves much smoother.
My friend loves the quality of the stick but loved the price even more!! For an affordable price of $69.99, I feel that you definitely get more bang for your buck when you purchase this item!! Good stuff!!

My first fight stick!,

First off, I like to say that the Fighting Stick VX is the first stick I've ever owned and I really love it! Design is very sleek, commands are easy to input, and honestly the price alone is very attractive! I'm an amateur at Street Fighter IV: AE but this stick allows me to play like a pro!
Pros: Sleek design, sturdy exterior, turbo function, and of course AFFORDABLE!
Cons: Nothing so far! Nice job HORI!
