I sold my TE fightstick a couple months ago but I've got the fighting bug again. I'm doing OK on a cheap fight pad, but how's the MadCatz Alpha as a cheap/entry level stick?

I've got a Qanba Q1 and it's been working out pretty well. Here some other budget-ish sticks I've come across.

(Assuming you're using a PS3 or PC)

Heard good things about the new Hori sticks if you're willing to splurge a little more.

Went to my first tourney, I ended up taking a match in losers bracket but overall got bodied. It was a good time but I really need to get my own stick so I don't have to borrow my friends. I saw that like 1/3 of the people had the Hori rap4. Would people recommend it and have people had any issues trying to use it on pc?

Works fine on my PC without any 3rd party hardware. Sorry for the scrub rear end question. Trying to learn Fang but find myself eating hits every time I try to break free from a combo or block string. Would appreciate any advice.

I'm a Laura scrub. What are some good Laura guides to that I can stop getting my rear end beat?

I went to school with the guy who made that vid. Pretty surreal.

the ps4 right now is a good buy but not essential but by next february if you don't have one you are making a big mistake cause Horizon, Neir, and Persona will be out.

I'd personally wait on getting a PS4 for now since there's a new model coming out. Plus, the games you mentioned will be cheaper later for us that wait :D.
