Xbox Fighting Stick EX

Flip

   Hori uses the same mold and form factor from the Dead or Alive 3 joystick to craft their latest Xbox creation dubbed the Fighting Stick EX. Unlike that earlier DOA3 specific controller which featured a mere four buttons, the new model places all eight buttons on the unit and throws in a clicky joystick with green lollipop knob. A memory card port located on the back of the unit accepts a standard Xbox card and a lengthy 8' cord allows for range in your seating arrangements.
   Generally, NCS disfavors clicky sticks but given the reluctance of ASCII to product the FT2 for the Xbox, the Hori controller will have to do for now. Overall, the quality is good with a sturdy base and solid construction but we would have preferred a more tactile response from the somewhat mushy buttons and a quieter (non-clicky) stick.
