    OMG!!!! this brings me so much memories :°) i used to play vf2 with that pad too. Nice controller, but i still think a stick is much much better than a sidewinner pad.

    Started playing stick around november last year.Still get troubles with it but im alot more comfortable with it now then i was then.although i think im gonna have to pony up cash and get a better stick because i think even modded the stick isn't moving the way it should.could just be my play-style though.but overall i think Stick is better suited for fighting games.at least if often do long combos

    Just pad for me XP. I can't really afford a stick and they feel too awkward to me.

    I use both depending on what character ex: akira [K][+][G]. I think I play better on the pad its just me.

    I play on a PS3 dual shock 3. Wasn't an arcade player so I grew up playing fighting games on pad, so it's what I'm most used to.

    I have a Madcatz TE that I used to play Street Fighter IV, But I was only to use charge characters with it. When I started playing Makoto, I had to switch to a Madcatz Fight Pad.

    I tried playing Tekken on the TE but I didn't like it. I have yet to try VF with a stick, but I'd like to eventually make the transition if I can ever get used to it.

    There were never any arcades near me as a youngin' so I got used to playing on pads. The DS3 is very good for fighting games. I tried using a stick once, felt good. But I just couldn't get used to the feeling of it...

    So, pad it is...

    I grow in country where no arcade ever was... I spend like 12 years playing FGs on pad - yet I am now using stick and I feel it is much better - not because of speed or something (there are things you can do better on stick and there are things you can do better on pad), but because of level of control I have over my inputs. But I fully understand how someone can prefer pad for VF.
    My 5 cents.

    Stick, just cause I get that real arcade experience and it feels more comfortable than playing with a regular controller.

    I use the pad on the 360 controller,because i like that flat feeling, although dodging/ side steeping is a little more difficult
