Microsoft can't just use another D-pad, all the good ones are patented. Or so I heard.



Then they should creat new one



Whats wrong with the d-pad? I used it to beat Contra in under 15 minutes.

microsoft I doubt, but a third party should release one witha better D-pad sometime.

Solution is really simple - buy this arcade stick on July 11... Decent stuff. It's equivalent of HRAP3 (Sanwa stick, Hori buttons)

 

 



^^^ me likey, I will pick that up, thanks for the post kber81!



the problem with the d-pad is there is a lose in control when u move from direction to another for example from up to down.



you are wrong... it's actually because the D pad is too sensible that it sucks.... you have to be exactly in the right direction to have the right result.....

but who plays with the D pad anyway.... especially fighting games..... always played with the analogue... it's closer to arcade style with the stick....
