Chances are you already know how awesome BlazBlue is. IGN gave it a freaken 9.4. Many of you also know that King of Fighters XII just came out. Amazon has the best prices on it, so I’m going to give you a link for them below.
The real reason for this post is to let you know that I’ve been watching what everyone is saying about BlazBlue and KOF XII on fighting game forums, twitter, and facebook. Everyone loves these games, but it is essential to have a good fight stick to really experience them in the way they were meant to be played. If there are any of you playing BlazBlue, KOF XII, or Street Fighter IV without a fight stick…you have to get one. Ask any serious fighting game fan and they will tell you how essential they are.
There are many fighting sticks on the market. I’ve built a few from scratch as well as purchased a few over the shelf ones. The one I’m a fan of right now is the SF IV Tournament Stick from Mad Catz. The reviews for it are pretty solid.
I’ve also read good things about these HORI sticks (plus they are more affordable)
- Buy HORI Fighting Stick 3 (PS3) at Play-Asia.com
