PS3 Marvel vs Capcom 2 Tournament Stick Review

PS3 Marvel vs Capcom 2 Tournament Stick
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
My gf bought this stick for my birthday two weeks ago at Gamestop and so far i love it. its my first stick and i figured "why not get the best?" I dont think i have ever even played ssf without a controller(born in 89)so i have nothing to compare it to, but it has definitely made the game twice as fun.

They are still easy to find but most stores only have the xbox one. although, if you just ask them they can look up the nearest gamestop that has it. I didnt plan on gettin the marvel vs capcom edition but when i was browsing and researching, i noticed the $200-350 price tag online and said f that. So i planned on ordering the black edition after my bday. i went back home to see my parents during my bday and ended up at a gamestop where i saw this stick. I flipped out because it was priced at 140 as opposed to the online prices because i didnt read the reviews. my gf offered to get it for me and i was sold.

i think the online prices might just be a marketing scheme because gamestop is way overstocked in these. so that when you see it for really cheap you think your ripping them off when really your still paying 20 extra bucks for a faceplate

Its full sized but it can still fit comfortably on your lap. its even big enough to fit a small ash tray on for quick blunt actions

I bought this controller cover for my grandson and he loves it. Easy to install and looks "cool" he tells me. A little pricey for what it is but good buy for me.

Super Street Fighter IV Arcade FightStick Tournament Edition S - Black Review

Super Street Fighter IV Arcade FightStick Tournament Edition S - Black
Average Reviews:

This is my first fight stick purchase. I have been playing fighting games for years and I finally decided to shell out the money and get one. I have visited many message boards figuring out which fighting sticks were the best and most affordable. I discovered that this one( Mad Catz) and the Hori fighting sticks were the best for affordability and performance. I picked the Mad Catz one because it has a storage device for the 12ft wire right in the back of the base, and also the nice art work on it.

The performance is spectacular. I have always used the d-pad on a controller for fighting games so i was skeptical switching to a analog stick and 2 rows of 8 buttons, plus the fact that I would have to spend $130 to find out if i liked it or not. It did take time getting used to. I spent a good 2 days getting used to the button layout.Other than adapting to the button layout I am not disappointed at all. This stick is worth all $130.

The cable length is perfect and more than enough. The fight stick itself is light and I usually just place it on my lap. The buttons are really responsive. I mean I barely touch the buttons and I can perform a move. The analog stick is great. The stick is really responsive as well. All I can say is that the fight stick screams precision. Every move, combo, can be pulled off with precision with little to no error. I play Street Fighter for ours and my hands dont get tired or start hurting. When using the PS3 controller my hands would get cramped. No cramping has occurred when using the fight stick, and I have had it since March 12.Arcade sticks can be fully customized and Mad Catz Fight sticks are one of the most fully customizable when it comes to replacing parts and the artwork.

I fully recommend this Fight Stick for first time buyers like me who are looking into buying one. Put all worries aside. This stick is great for upping your game. This Fight stick will make you play better period. Its so much more responsive than a normal controller and now I can see this is how fighting games were meant to be played. Worth every penny.

Rock Band 3 - Wireless Fender Stratocaster Guitar Controller for Wii - Blue Review

Rock Band 3 - Wireless Fender Stratocaster Guitar Controller for Wii - Blue
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This guitar started out very quiet compared to the Rock Band 2 predecessor, but after 2 weeks of heavy use and breaking it in - it sounds just like the old one.

In function - it is identical to the older Rock Band 2 Strat but the Wii version of this guitar is missing the sound effects slider (can't speak for the other consoles).

It comes with the USB dongle and is backward compatible with Rock Band 2 (and I'd assume RB1 as well but cannot verify).

All in all - a decent replacement guitar, but nothing groundbreaking. If you liked the Rock Band 2 Strat - you will like this one.

Street Fighter IV FightStick Review

Wasn't going to leave a review, but seeing as how the first guy to review it doesn't even own one and gave it 1 star for the most retarded reason ever (because people are paying 400 on ebay?), I thought I should give some balance as someone who does actually own one.

I have to say- I was not expecting this stick to be as nice as all the hype built it up to be, but I have to eat my words and admit I was wrong.I got the lucky opportunity to pick one of these up for not much more than retail even though I never pre-ordered it, so I did because I wanted to see what the fuss was about and get a good comparison to the HRAP 3 SA.So far, it's been a great playing experience.It's got some really good weight to it, and obviously the sanwa components are top quality.Feels good on your lap, and very easy to play with in general.I'm not a huge fan of the start/select buttons all the way on the back of the stick...maybe on the right side would have been more convenient IMO, but that's the only complaint I can come up with...

I originally said that I didn't think this stick would be better than the HRAP3 SA, and I still stand by that though.I don't think it's better, BUT I don't think it's worse either.Both sticks have a solid arcade feel to them, and both use genuine sanwa parts.The color scheme of this one is growing on me more, but I might end up doing some kind of art mod later...

Anyway- I'm eating my words, Mad Catz actually made a good controller for once, haha.The fact that Mad Catz made something on par with what I consider the best arcade stick hori has to offer is absolutely crazy to me, but it seems to be true.Don't know how this stick came out so well and the SE version is so full of issues....

Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars Review

Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I never thought that this game would ever be released outside of Japan, even after it was announced for U.S. release I still couldn't believe it. There are some awesome detailed reviews here already so I'll spare you the specs and just touch on the key points. If you enjoyed Marvel Vs. Capcom 1/2, Capcom Vs. SNK 1/2 then stop reading and buy this if you haven't yet. If you don't have a Wii, buy a Wii and buy this game. You probably won't recognize many/any of the Tatsunoko characters but that really doesn't matter. Those of you that grew up in the 80's might remember the characters from Gatchaman (G-Force in the states), anime freaks will recognize Karas but that's about it. The rest of the lineup haven't had much exposure over here if any...but they are all spectacular characters for the Vs. series. I love the graphics, the cell-shaded 3D is a perfect fit, makes me hopeful for MvC3 using a similar style (it could happen!). There is a ton of unlockable content, the shop system is pretty much like MvC2 was on the Dreamcast, single player is just as solid as multiplayer thanks to that. The gameplay is basically a simplified MvC2, don't worry though, plenty of depth for the hardcore. This is a 2 on 2 set up and you can freely swap your characters out to regain health, just like MvC. You have 3 attack buttons, light/medium/heavy, and a Partner/Assist button to call in your other character. I honestly don't think the strategy or depth is negatively impacted by a 4 button setup at all, once you play for a few hours you'll start to see how complex 4 buttons can be. I've played MvC2 for nearly 10 years, I have a PS3 and I love Street Fighter IV and BlazBlue but I can say without a doubt that this is the most fun I have had with a fighting game since playing Street Fighter 2 in the arcades all those years ago, only time will tell if it will stay fun for as long. Definitely buy an arcade stick too, you won't regret it. Enjoy, see you all online!
