Title: Console Arcade Joysticks
Post by: inoxx on July 14, 2009, 09:30:44 PM
Why do mainly players use these? I don't see the difference using it instead of a controller, better performance?

Its a hell of a lot easier.

Stuff that is damn near impossible on a controller due to the position of your hands, and the fact that your muscles just arent supposed to do that shit, becomes relatively easy on a stick.

That and most of us are used to them through years of arcade-going. Once you get pretty good with a stick, youll wonder why you ever used a controller.

Yep ditto that, sticks are way better
but if you have not used one you will struggle to start with,
it will all come good in the end though

Just logic. There is no break within the stick like with a dpad where you have to rub your thumb over two directions to get a diagonal. Also all six buttons are on the face of the controller so there isn't any of the trigger stuff.
