Darkhonor90 Posted April 30, 2009 Posted April 30, 2009 Is it easy to play Guilty Gear on a stick with a square gate? I'm considering getting one, but a square gate makes it sound really difficult to play effectively on... Honestly MOST sticks are square guage. Its the one most people perfer. I play on a square and LOVE IT. It is really effectively because it allows for free range of motion why octogon is limited in a sense. Personal perference but the majority of people like square guage

There are octagon gates also.
HavQ Posted April 30, 2009 Posted April 30, 2009 Octagonal gates are always better in my opinion, but it's a matter of taste. Still, a square gate might prove harder to work with.
Hellmonkey Posted April 30, 2009 Posted April 30, 2009 Square gate is the norm, people switching over from american sticks usually find octagon easier but after switching american->octagon->square myself, I'd never go back. Square gate makes a really distinct difference between diagonals and sides, in the end I think it makes inputting easier/more efficient
DoomieJ Posted April 30, 2009 Posted April 30, 2009 Square gate is the best for everything except marvel. Marvel needs them circle HAPPs.
jellotek Posted May 1, 2009 Posted May 1, 2009 Cool. Thanks, guys. Another thing though. Does anyone know if the Hori 3 would work on AC+ on a PS3? I've heard mixed accounts about compatibility.
Ikagi-chan Posted May 1, 2009 Posted May 1, 2009 My friend has a LS-32 and I really prefer the JLF over it for GG but its not a gigantic difference I just feel like the JLF requires slightly less movement of my actual hand/fingers. Most japanese GG cabinets use the Sanwa JLF-TP-8Y-SK Thanks for the info man. I would've thanked you earlier, but this topic sort of slipped my mind. Still though, I'm kinda surprised that Guilty Gear cabinets have JLFs installed, but I suppose that's attributed to the fact that GG never had its own dedicated cabinet. They were mostly Astro Cities with a NAOMI board. Now that I've been playing on one for long enough, I have to agree with your friend that it's the best freaking joystick ever. I love that tension and I've never been able to mash out of dizzy stun so fast before thanks to that crazy small engage distance. Cool. Thanks, guys. Another thing though. Does anyone know if the Hori 3 would work on AC+ on a PS3? I've heard mixed accounts about compatibility. Hori's Real Arcade Pro 3 and Fighting Stick 3 both work as controllers when playing PlayStation 2 games on a backwards compatible PlayStation 3. This functionality is precisely why I convinced many of my friends to get a HRAP3 over Mad Catz's FightStick Tournament Edition.

D: Whether you've got a 60GB Emotion Engine hardware-based backwards compatible PlayStation 3 or an 80GB software emulation backwards compatible PlayStation 3 doesn't matter. They both accept Hori's arcade sticks as legitimate working controllers when playing PlayStation 2 games. Relax man, they'll work.
faultydefense Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 woot, just ordered a plexiglass cover and an art-printout from http://www.tek-innovations.com/arthobbies/index.cfm?loc=products still need to order some white buttons and ball-top
Digital Watches Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 Huh. Do you think they'd make me one for a HRAP 1? My faceplate got bent up and I need a replacement.
faultydefense Posted May 3, 2009 Posted May 3, 2009 @DW, dude just updated his shoryuken thread with: UPDATE 5/03 5:30am: At last, the HRAP1/T5 covers are made available. A lot of my new, and remaining, queue is getting cleared up so I can take on new orders. More updates later. For now, back to sleep... it's 5:30am. =P
Digital Watches Posted May 3, 2009 Posted May 3, 2009 Sweet! Thing functions as a mounting plate right? Like, I can mount the stick on it, yeah?
faultydefense Posted May 3, 2009 Posted May 3, 2009 its just a plexiglass cover, you put it over the current plate, i think he might do extra thick versions for use as a faceplate itself, you'd haveto ask him
lovage Posted May 6, 2009 Posted May 6, 2009 do converters exist for ps3/xbox360 to ps2? i know that the other way around exist
blipples Posted May 6, 2009 Posted May 6, 2009 Hey guys, does anyone know of any good 360 sticks that are out there? I heard that the converters are all garbage and is just as cheap to buy a stick. Any recommendations?
Mr. Ryu Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 A Street Fighter SE fightstick for the 360 is good. Also easy to mod with sanwa.
blipples Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 A Street Fighter SE fightstick for the 360 is good. Also easy to mod with sanwa. What is the price on one of those beasts?
ghaleon109 Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 My new stick since I sold my old one. Not completely done yet, but it's dual PCB so it works on both 360 and PS3... since I have a 360 and everyone else has a PS3 lol. Made it out of Zebrawood, and it has a Sanwa JLF + Sanwa RG's. Once the rest of the parts come in all the RG's will be yellow and I'll have a meshball on top. Looking forward to to BB
Blade Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 Man...I dunno why but if I ever get a Joystick, it's gotta have a Sol versus Ky image in it...something epic. Perhaps in the GG2 Overture style.
lovage Posted May 8, 2009 Posted May 8, 2009 your amazingly sexy new stick works with ps3 and xbox360 can you play accent core on the ps3 with that new stick and it will play fine?
ghaleon109 Posted May 8, 2009 Posted May 8, 2009 Unfortinatly I dunno how AC works on the PS3... I've always wanted to know actually. I only have a 360 so I play AC on PS2. I did the dual compatibility just due to the fact that a ton of people on here have PS3's (look at the BB console thread..) and all of my buddies have PS3's.

How exactly did you rig up the 360 hook up? I have an old controller that is busted and was wondering if i could use the wire to try and make a converter.
ghaleon109 Posted May 8, 2009 Posted May 8, 2009 The 360 hook up? You mean the part you plug in the USB cord to? You plug it into the same slot. 360 was set up as the primary so you just plug it into the 360 and it works, if you want to use it for PS3 you'd hold in the "L" button on the back then plug it into the PS3. There are differen't PCB's for the Playstation board and the 360 board, and then there's another board which deals with the button that switches between the two systems. I'm not sure about what you are talking about with the converter though?
