| Happ competition for 4-way games? |
| (1/1) |
| AE35:
Hi all. I know it isn't a 4-way joystick, I just wanted to ask how well I could expect it to work with 4-way games like Lady Bug and Pengo etc.? My wife hates getting stuck in the corners :) I've read many great reviews of the comp sticks, being great for allround games. Now that I think about it, why do some sticks use direct contact with the micro's(like the competition), and others press on the cobber-thingy that then presses the micro. Which is better for what and why? Thanks you for your time, again! Nicholas |

Yeah they worked terrible for me, even for some 8 way games like Gauntlet. It's generally pretty difficult to move directly up/down/left/right, the stick always seems to want to move to the diagonals unless you are very deliberate and careful. |
