the DC Agetec stick is the best. 2nd would be the TK4 hori stick.

The Agetec stick is just a little tighter and the stick is far enough away from the buttons. The Hori is a bit looser and the stick is kinda close to the buttons. That may not be a problem for most people but its a small problem worth mentioning.

I own both and they are great.

I've never used the PS2 ASCII Stick but I've heard it's good. The only stick I regularly use (besides my Neo ones) is the DC arcade stick, which I love. I also bought the PS2 Shadowblade arcade stick a while back but I'm not very pleased with it... :(

None of the above. If you want something real good, either get a massystems joystick with DC and PS2 adapters or if you have friends get the x-arcade pricey both worth the cash.

That's true, I forgot both of those. The good news is they are probably THE 2 best joysticks to get, the bad news is they're both obscenely expensive. :(

I can't stand the dc stick either - like said above, it's firm, but in a slow unresponsive way, it takes forever to recentre and the buttons don't have enough feel to them. I much prefer the original namco arcade stick for the psx which is class imo.
