I want one of those ball joysticks for PS2, and would appreciate any links to those. As for the X-Arcade, I've played a bit on it already and I don't see how it's any crappier than all the non-ball joysticks in arcades. It felt better than the sticks on CvS2 stand-up cabinets, for example. The people who say it sucks might just not prefer those types of joysticks, like myself.

Octopi are kinda' funny. You can't blame them for anything.

The agetec dc fighting stick is great although like most Dreamcast stuff now, it's hard to find.

I have an Agetec DC joystick. I am not sure if it is the best stick I have used. Certainly better than the crappy ones, but not the best.

Concensus between fighting game players seems to be that the best US-style sticks are made by MAS, while the best Japanese-style sticks are made by ASCII or Hori.

I myself am looking for an ASCII one.

I myself have a PS/PS2 arcade panel (2 arcade sticks put together like it would be at the arcade) made by Blaze. It's not bad, but it is a ball end.
I don't think there are many home arcade sticks that don't have the ball end. I've never owned one. I have one for NES, SNES and PS/PS2, all ball ends.
I can't seem to find a picture on the net of the thing, but search around for Blaze products, you should be able to pull up a few hits.

This One looks awesome, although pricey.

A bunch of people here love those. I used one at the last MMCafe gathering, but it seemed a little sticky, but that's probably just me.

I had my MAS on hand for that gathering, I believe RB had his too. MAS I would say is the way to go. I got mine of eBay from MAS
