Any good joysticks for 4 way games while in 8 way mode?

[LeedsFan]

I know what you'll all say.... true arcade junkies will not play 4-way games while in 8-way mode. I understand this logic. But I'm using an X-Arcade 2 player unit for my desktop PC and I really like the movement and feel of the sticks. I can also play 4-way games like  Pac-Man pretty well while in 8-way mode.

Compare this to my cab which uses T-Stik plusses. The sticks are good, especially for their switchable mode without opeing up the CP. But their movement and feel is not really to my liking. Personal preference I suppose. I find these good for 8-way shooters, but very stiff for Pac-Man while in 4-way. I actually prefer my X-Arcade while in 8-way mode!

I'm thinking of taking the sticks from my X-Arcade and putting them in my cab to replace the T-Stik plusses. Any thoughts on this?

4 way games feel pretty good on the P360.

This is all about what YOU want.
Everybody comes here, and asks "What do you guys think I should do?".
Do whatever makes YOU happiest.

I personally went modular, so that I could have the best of ALL worlds.
I couldn't find a joystick that fit everything PERFECTLY--so I have 4-way Wico's, 8-way Wicos, a genuine Pacman stick, Tron sticks, T-stiks, Joust sticks, Defender stick, Top-fire Supers, Happ comps, Happ 49-way, and a Happ Star Wars Trilogy analog stick.

That's what makes me happy.
Your results may vary.
I know people who are happy with JUST their Happ Comps, their Wicos, their T-stiks, etc...
I'm not one of those people.
