SF controller

[jbenner]

The pads do work with a PS2 to Xbox converter. I use mine on Capcom Vs. SNK 2 on Live all the time. It's an excellent controller although it seems a bit too thick to me. But the D pad is dead on and you can't beat the 6-button face layout.

SF controller

 

i see, guile, sagat, cammy, bison, i think i see another ryu (evil?)...

Mine isn't damaged at all. I have the Ken controller and my brother has the Chun Li and Akuma Controllers. But his Akuma controller had "bubble" defects about a week after he had his in use. But my Ken controller has held up fine (I've got around 3000 matches online and probably used the SF controller for about 100 of them.) I've heard that the Akuma controller is really rare, possibly due to manufacturing defects.

my friend got himself an Akuma one and nuthin's wrong with it and i tried it but i didn't like it cuz it's too thick so i'm gonna stick with my sony controller which is the best

It might be worth mentioning what brand of PS2/Xbox converter you have? I know I'm interested in these, and knowing I coudl make them work on an XBox would be a selling point.

 

The remaining ones look to be Vega and yeah, probably Evil Ryu (Guile, Sagat, Cammy, and Bison already mentioned). I'll probably wait for Guile and Bison if I decide to get them, though there's somethign appealing about having Ken and Ryu. Damn the ghost of the collector in me.

 

Also, does anyone know if they work with PS2 to PC converters? And how big/thick are they, roughly?

 

Eww, and the control pads are a solid piece.. Anyone know if they roll a half-circle as well as a fighter pad should? Half circles on an X-Box pad, for example, suck.

Here's my converter...

I got mine at Wal Mart for about $10

 

The pad is about 2x as thick as a standard saturn controller. And doing a half circle on the pad is silky smooth. I can do 360s perfectly. And since my primary battery is Yuri I have to do D to F to B consistantly. It's a solid pad I say go get one.

My friend has the controlers for PS2, Akuma, Ryu, Ken. My other friend has the Chun Lee one. There not bad, exept for that face that the controller gets to be confusing as hell when your used to the PS ones.

[IxI SoNiK IxI]

i got the best one.. akuma, suppose to be hard to find but i got mine at the local blockbuster store

[Wizard]

The Chun-Li one makes me happy.

[Gryph]

They're all breathtaking.

Yeah, the solid piece D-pads are a pain in the arse. Harder to do motions on them. Anything similar to the PS D-pad is good.

Have you used these SF controllers or are you saying this as a (very true) general statement?

[Sturmvogel]

I haven't used the SF controller, but I'm very familiar with D-pad designs like that. Seems a lot of the crappy controllers have the solid d-pad (sidewinder, logitech etc) and they're frustrating to use. Off course I can't make a fair judgement from just a picture.

 

The best thing to do what be to get your hands on any controller before you buy it, to get the feel of how it plays. Or at least sites could provide a video review of controllers highlighting the pros and cons.

[Wizard]

It's the looks like the same type of Dpad the Guilty Gear X Controller(which was pretty good imo). I'll look into it to hopefully today when I pick up a new used ps2.

Too colorful for my tastes and the button layout is funky.
