im in the process of looking for an xbox 360 arcade stick. this tekken ones going really cheap some price as a basic hori stick.
is it moddable for better parts too?
Just started getting into shmups "properly" and want something good for the 360. will more than likely be modded at some point too.

Stay away.
The case is likely too shallow to mount proper buttons, let alone a lever. And I have yet to hear anything remotely positive about it stock either.

the stick looks a little funky to me. i have a pair of Hori EX2s for the 360 and couldn't be happier with them right out of the box, to be honest.

I have it and with heavy modding it's "okay". Not great.

It is VERY hard to mod, so if you can get hold of a Mad Katz stick instead, then go for that instead. Those are very easy to mod.

i'v only read positive stuff about the HRAP EX-SE so i bought one and i'm really happy with it too. Well, apart from the "artwork", but i replaced that.
so you might also consider that one, it costs about $100

As mentioned before, go for the HRAP EX SE, you'll not regret it.
The hori tekken stick is a piece of shit and best burnt on the stake.

Nice stick. I checked some updates on your site. How is Gradius V on the candy?

It looks very nice thanks.
I just bought RGB cables for my 360 and the Dreamcast as well, so I will probably do an update soonish. Just waiting for the mailman now.
