How many people have losses in CVS2 on XBOX live because the controller was not doing what you told it to do?

I'm getting an XARCADE to fix the problem but how many of you have this problem?

I use the XXL controller so I have a really bad handicap (509 matches 71 wins over the last month)

The only controller I can't use properly for fighting games is gamecube. Fucking MAS takes getting used to as well, oddly enough. I'll start piling up the wins in CVS2 once I finish hacking the AES stick. For the most part though the S Xbox controller seems fine for that game though, just not up to peak performance.

Gamecube controller is total shyte - that d-pad is for barbie dolls. X-box is ok, but not quite suitable for fighters.

Not sure what to say to this. I got an XArcade. It's not a problem solver. It's not as bad as some people say, but it's not great, either. It's not very precise, so more involved moves like Raising Storm are hit and miss with it (I can hit it more easily with the freaking Dual Shock...that never should happen), as compared with an old style stick or Hori, which are easier to find the diagonals with. Also, as countless others have said, if you're going to get it, get the single. If you get the 2-player, be prepared for your friend to be constantly pausing the game by hitting Start, which is right next to the second stick.

Some people have said the XArcade is good if you replace the stick and buttons, so you may want to look into that. I should've just got my Hori to begin with. If you prefer american sticks and buttons, I'd look into Mas before XArcade.

The XArcade's main advantage is being able to use it on multiple systems, except that now I have a controller I don't really want to use on any system. It's main use for me is when friends come over to drink and I don't want them mashing and tearing up the good sticks.

MAS can build you any custom setup you want. It'll run you about $140 in the end.
