Perfect stick for the fighting game fan who loves a long wait
I expected to post a review for this stick several weeks ago as I've had it pre-ordered for an age and was originally told it would ship in April. Then the date slipped to early May, then mid May and now the shipping date has disappeared altogether and I'm left hanging on the promise of an 'email when it becomes available'.
I don't know if this is the fault of Blaze or Amazon and I don't really care, either way it's frustrating.
Like a lot of gamers I want to play Street Fighter 4 properly, but can't afford the hyped Madkatz sticks. It's a shame that it seems impossible to buy a budget priced fight stick for the PS3 as the similar subsonic and hori sticks are also permanently out of stock. I can't be the only fighting game fan on a budget?
I'll post another review if it ever arrives, but I certainly can't recommend ordering this.
Oh well, I guess I better start saving for a Madkatz stick instead.....
EDIT: 15/05/09 I emailed Blaze a week ago asking for an estimate of when the sticks will be released in the UK. I've had no reply so I've canceled my order. If the Blaze stick ever does see the light of a UK sunrise I'll remove this review and people who've actually bought one can tell us all about it. But in the mean time I'm leaving it up to warn off others from potential disappointment.
