Godamn I never really looked at the TE2 but that is a nice looking stick. I don't really need a 3rd stick but really want the PS3/4 one...

For fighting games being the most poverty genre it sure is expensive.

TE2 has a hinged top with a compartment for the cable/spare buttons/secret weed, the top plexi comes off very easily for replacing artwork. The HRAP used a Hayabusa stick and Kuro buttons, while the TE2 uses a Sanwa stick and buttons.

The HRAP4 is a good stick of course, if you're cool with the Kuros and Hayabusa.

Dare I ask what's the difference between Hayabusa/Kuro and Sanwa? I know nothing about fighting sticks but was thinking of getting one since I kind of have a bunch of fighting games on PS3 that I like and will have more on PS4 (new DAO5, Tekken, GG, MK X). I really don't care that much about secret stashes or artwork, but would pay more for better feel/buttons/durability/whatever.

The most in-depth review is probably from SRK
http://shoryuken.com/2014/02/24/srklabs-review-hori-hayabusa-and-kuro/

Justin Wong also did a little interview about the fighting edge
http://www.hori.jp/us/press/f_edge_review_j_w/

quote:


Hayabusa Stick Lever
1. What are your thoughts regarding the "Hayabusa" stick lever?
 
I notice it was different and I have a better grip than most joysticks.
   
2. Are you able to execute combo smoother and more precisely with the Hayabusa stick lever compared to other stick levers?
 
While I was testing, I didn't miss any combos but after reading this question, I notice now that my inputs are more precise.
   
3. What are your thoughts on the new V-Cut Housing design that we have implemented for this stick?
 
It explains a lot but with this new design people should have an easier time to implement their moves.
   
4. Is there a significant difference you can feel/see when using the "Hayabusa"stick compared to when using Sanwa
 
or Seimitsu? If yes, what are the differences?
I do feel a difference and it's that the Hayabusa is not too loose and the clicks are more consistent.
   
5. What is your overall rating for the "Hayabusa" stick lever? (out of 10)
 
It's a 10/10 since I have not dropped any combos while playing on it.

Kuro Buttons:
1. What are your thoughts regarding the "Kuro" buttons?
 
The Kuro Buttons are interesting to me. I feel like they sometimes might get stuck which I am very afraid off.
It might be a mental thing for me since I am not use to it at all.
   
2. Are you able to feel that the housing has been improved so that the buttons do not move around as much
 
compared to other buttons?
I can see that but I am still not use to the fact that it sticks sometimes.
   
3. Are you able to notice that the deterioration rate of the buttons have been cut by 60%?
 
I can tell when I push the button down and how responsive it is.
   
4. Is there a significant difference you can feel/see when using the "Kuro" buttons compared to when using
 
Sanwa or Seimitsu? If yes, what are the differences?
You can definitely feel the difference but as I said before, I am afraid of the buttons being stuck.
   
5. What is your overall rating for the "Kuro" buttons? (out of 10)
 
I would give it a 7/10 just because I am still use to Sanwa parts only.

The Kuro's feel a lot like the buttons from the PS1 Namco stick (which was made by Hori so that makes sense I guess). The Hori is a good stick but it's probably going to fail just because they are using components that are in house and no one really trusts them vs the tried and true Sanwas. What I've been told about the Hayabusa is that it's a J-style stick that was heavily patterned on the Suzo 500 and LS-40 which are very popular in certain circles for their really high precision inputs and tiny throws. It certainly has a much more "sharp" feel if that makes sense. From what I've seen of the internals the production quality is very high and doesn't have the problems with mold lines and poorly formed plastic that the other generic branded Hori sticks have (the DoA one for instance). I think this is because, as a lot of people including me have suspected, they changed production companies away from MD who are the standard cheapass button and stick makers and have either gotten an in house production facility or are using a better company like Jyueeang.

Well also Persona 4AU is coming next week. That's going to be significantly more popular.

On fighting sticks I read through so. E previews and it looks like those new Kuro buttons are supposed to be a lot more durable vs before but they may be somewhat tougher to press or may stick. Overall construction seems durable though.

I guess I will wait a bit and see. Is madcatz stick going to show up on Amazon?

BTW, anyone importing Dengeki Bunch? . The game looks pretty great.

Same. Well, doing a gameshare, but close enough. By all accounts it's the very definition of a braindead game, but I don't care, it looks like dumb fun.

Neutral isn't that hard, the main thing you want to keep in mind is that in terms of potential threat you're pretty much always at what would be considered mid-range in other games (kind of ironic considering how enormous the stages are). It's definitely weird and different, but you get used to it quickly. If anything, the people I've taught the game to have a lot more problems with understanding how clash works than with neutral.
