Ultimarc 360 vs GPWiz49 Head to Head
<< < (4/5) > >>
Izrun:
I really would like to know which 8-way the 360 feels most like, for comparison purposes.  I never liked the "feel" of the 49 way, but would love if this one felt like a conventional joystick.

Man, I wish Andy hadn't used 360 in the name.  I wonder how many times people are going to get confused when somebody just says "360" instead of "P360" or "U360".

As I was saying...  :dizzy:

Why do you think I say it's a poor comparison. You'd rather compare a stick acting as an 8 way with another stick acting as an 8 way......neither of which happen to be an 8 way.

The software stuff........comparable. The joystick stuff, not so much. Find your favorite 8 way/4 way/etcetera and compare each stick to that instead. It's what you'll naturally do when you pop a quarter in the first time to play and ultimately, it's what will make you like or dislike a stick. Installation, software, ease of adjustment.........all nice things to have, but if the stick doesn't act like your expectations you or your friends will eventually want to replace it. It doesn't matter how convenient that stick is, if it doesn't meet you and your companions expectation you'll either stop playing the machine or get a new stick that is maybe less convenient.

Nobody is going to play this stick and compare the feel to either the 49way/analog (whichever you don't get).  Listen to what I'm saying and save yourself a lot of headache.

If you would have read my entire post you would have seen that yes it would also be nice to know which one performs (feels) better as an 8-way 4-way etc.  You seem to be the only one with the headache here.

P360 is bad enough for some.  They see 360 and/or optical and believe you have to hook it up like a mouse.
