4.0 out of 5 stars It's no HRAP 3 or VFHG but it's one of the better Hori stick out there in the UK., 2 April 2007
By F. S. Ord - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
So is this stick any good? The answer is yes. The quality is good and it is one of the better Hori sticks that are freely available in the UK. The lever is responsive (if a little loose for my tastes) as are the buttons. The components are all Hori made, and is capable of withstanding a fair amount of abuse.
My game play in titles such as Virtua Fighter 5 and Tekken 5 Dark Resurrection improved significantly using this stick. Unlike the Sixaxis it is wired yet you have lots of cable to sit back and relax with and the Stick is sold and heavy. There are rubber pads at the base to avoid slippage (in the heat of the fight) on sold surfaces.
There are better sticks out there that use real arcade parts such as the HRAP 3 (Hori Real Arcade Pro 3) Which uses a Sanwa (Japanese arcade parts manufacturer) Stick and interchangeable Hori buttons and the Virtua Fighter High Grade stick which uses a Sanwa stick and Sanwa buttons. unfortunately for us Brits these incredible sticks are not freely available in the UK (check import stores or import sites) and are quite expensive.
The Hori Fighting Stick 3 is a cheap and sold alternative and comes highly recommended.

4.0 out of 5 stars Hori Arcade Fighting Stick review, 16 Feb 2009
By Mr. R. Lim - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
Excellent value for money, much cheaper than the Madcatz Street Fighter stick alternatives.

I bought this in anticipation of getting Street Fighter IV for the PS3, but haven't tried it on the PS3 yet... although it should also be good for Soul Calibur 4.

I have plugged it into my Vista PC and it is recognised straight away (no extra drivers needed). You probably can't use it for most native PC games because the stick registers as the point of view hat, rather than actual X/Y axis...

But it works fine with MAME arcade emulator. I tried it on several games, and it gives a nice more authentic feel to most arcade games (compared to playing on keyboard).

As others have said though, the stick feels too loose to be as precise as I would like in the fighting games that I tried.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Stick!, 10 Nov 2007
By James Kyle "Avid retrogamer" (Glasgow, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
Only 2 points to make in this review. Firstly, it's an excellent stick for fighting and arcade games, easily as good as my other favourite stick, the Dreamcast Official Arcade Stick. It stands up well on Tekken 5 DR and other downloaded arcade games, and I'm very happy with my purchase.

Secondly, although the stick manufacturer states that it is not compatible with Playstation 2 games, it is. Sony's firmware updates have seen to that, and now you can use it for all those compatible PS2 games you want. Top stuff!

So, to summarise, 5 stars!
