 Time tested and solid August 9, 2008

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.
Really? You're playing SoCal 4 and you don't have this? August 5, 2008

The Title says it all. Fighting games without this is like a key without a lock. Pointless.
5 stars.
Great for Soul Calibur and other fighting games. September 18, 2008

There's really no other choice when it comes to arcade fighting sticks for your 360, this is it. The controls are responsive, the unit itself is quite sturdy, even after my wife played on it constantly mashing the buttons as fast as she can, the buttons hold up well. No complaints on it although wireless would be nice, but not necessary.

Most people who are serious about fighting games will tell you that you've got to have one of these. After playing fighting games with a standard controller for a long time, and then playing with this, I have to agree. The joystick is big, making execution ridiculously easy. The ability to use three or four fingers while attacking (instead of only your thumb) makes p0wnage like child's play.
The controller is bigger than I expected, which is great. The controls seem to be identical in size and layout to what you would actually find on a fighter in the arcade. The construction is solid and well-built; this thing is made to last.
I ordered from this page, using free shipping, and the controller came in three days (one day earlier than expected). Impressive.
My only recommendation is if you love fighting games, and someone you know loves fighting games, you'd better order two, because you won't want to share. :)

This is the ONLY arcade stick you need to own, it is the BEST on the market (of course, it's a Bandai Product) hands down, and it's built like a tank, this baby will keep you fighting for years, the victories in battle are up to you.
