    Thanks for the head up, I will talk there, although there is not too many UK links about.

    I have still learnt a lot from reading that thread nevertheless.

    My mate got couple of those sticks and it seems to be a bit loose for VF and broke down within a year. I'll recommend either VF4evo or SC2 stick.

    I have both sticks and VF had better buttons, although both were made by Hori, suppose to be the same right? I'm sure the link that PhantomHarlock gave you should answer your questions.

    thanks for advice YK, but where do they sell the VF4evo stick?

    I have been searching all day, but most are US based sites, such as play-asia.com, I dont know how it work when itt comes to import and export, but usually in this part of the world (UK) is quite expensive.

    Finally, I have soe results.

    By the looks of things, i like the Soul Calibur II stick, because all of the buttons seems to be of equal sizes, rathern than the Evo one, which has three bigger buttons than the other.

    As for UK supplier, I finally found this:
    http://www.galeforceuk.com/product_info.php?products_id=845

    For £40, is that a good price?

    Please let me know.

    Just wanted to let you know that I have been using a Hori SC2 stick for the past two years (almost daily play) and have been very satisfied with it.

    Around 40 quid is also a fair price I'd say.

    Back in 03 I ordered it from videogameimports.com but I don't think they still have them.

    I use the Tekken 5 aniversery stick. Tis a good stick I thinks. Though the 'dead zone' is to large for my tastes. I wonder if one can change it without bying a new stick part...
