tell me, is it difficult to play fighting-games using analog pads? i'll explain what i'm asking about.
so, i love to play games like tekken and so on, as long they are emulated or available on the pc.
now - i have a small "club" with my friends. we meet up like every saturday and play games like this on my pc.
the problem is, that we always have to play on the keyboard two players at once... that's not very comfortable.
now i had the idea, that i buy 2 identic game pads so we could make fair play... the problem is i can't decide which to choose.
the problem is - that on a keyboard it's kinda easy to hit the arrow keys when you have to make a difficult combo.
on a pad - when you have a round cross - it seems impossible for me.
but then - all console users have to play these games with their analogs...
and here's my question - is it accurate to play with a pad.... difficult to learn ?
thanks for the help...

I think it's pretty easy. The only way I can play fighting games is with control pads. I've never been able to properly master the Street Fighter stick movements on an arcade machine joystick, and I'd rather saw my gums to bits with a razor than play a game like that on a keyboard.

hm.... let's say you have to make a combo - moving the cross left, donw, right (in one move) then left and hit a key.... now that's tricky...

it all depends on what kind of gamepad you get. stay away from the microsoft gamepads, they suck for fighting games.. very difficult to do moves on.
get yourself a pair of thrustmaster firestorm dual analog 2's. it has ten well-placed buttons and a great d-pad that you can actually do moves with. it's excellent for fighting games, and just about everything else..
back in college, i had my laptop hooked up with 2 of these, and we would play marvel vs streetfigter all lunch hour..
you can get them from amazon, or your local pc gaming store.. here's a link.
