Review: This is a fantastic controller. Not at all as described in the review. It's rugged and ready for a bashing; the manufacturer has offered a lifetime warranty on all parts. That's how confident they are. Buy one of these and you won't need another one.

Review: Sadly, the worst part is not the price, nor the need to buy overpriced extra dongles to get this working with different consoles. The worst part is that the stick is just ‘horrible’. It suffers from the usual Western problem of the stick being far too stiff, having too much travel before it recognises movement, and the buttons are in a horrible layout. If you want to go spending a fortune on an arcade stick, import one or two of the Hori Soul Calibur 2 sticks from Japan. They're far, far, far nicer to use than this thing.
