With Street Fighter V finally being good after its Arcade Edition update, and with Dragon Ball Fighter Z being one heck of a good fighting game, based on the experience I had with the beta, I'm finally going to get back into competitive play.

Been a while since I got myself a good arcade fight stick. I was hesitating between the Qanba Obsidian and the Hori Fighting Edge, and after reading many reviews of both, they're both comparable sticks and the end decision falls basically on personal preference. I personally prefer the clean yet elegant style of the Hori Fighting Edge, so that's what I settled with. Not sure about the balltop stick though, since most arcades here used HAPP bat top stick, so that may be a part I'll have to mod if I'm not comfortable playing with it as is. But that's an easy and non-expensive mod to do if it's ever needed.

The arcades being pretty much a thing of the past now, it's been a while since I've laid my hands on a good fighting stick. But it feels so much better playing brawlers with that control setup.

Can't wait!
