Keyboard(aka hitbox) because of the science behind it, But you have to be devoted to get your muscle memory up there with that of a pad/stick. Unless you have played PC for along time.

Pad transitioning to stick. I like the hitbox as well; though, it's a lot of fun. Wish I owned one!

Yea when I play 4-button fighters such as SC or Tekken I prefer the stick but MK and SF-type games I don't want to bother with the longer muscle memory training.
I want to get back into SCV with my new stick, primarily because I main Voldo in SCV. Stick isn't bad with MK though.

I play on a pad for every fighting game, including Tekken, Mortal Kombat, and Soul Calibur.


I've always found sticks awkward in the arcade days and I don't like change, so I'd just stick to a pad to be honest, I'm not really interested in experimenting, the pad's as accurate for my awkward hands as they'll ever be lol.

I like the custom designs people get on their arcade sticks though....makes me want a pad with a custom design on it, would be godlike.

Damn, you must be a hardcore gamer. Stick is hella fun though, so at least you can still play.

yea i agree, i have way more fun playing on stick then pad,
plus you can do alot more to a stick to make it your own with changing the buttons and art etc
 
i am practicing since 4 months with fighting stick, but it still feels bad..
my main problem is pressing down/back - down/forward accidentally , every time i want to do an fast uppercut or D4 and i dont hit exactly DOWN, an special move came out, because of the ridiculous input engine :/


the ps3 d-pad is fine because every direction is separate, u can just press DOWN easier and not down/back oder down/forward accidentally
i guess this works with hitbox too?

For me is strange. I picked up kenshi last week and I do all his combos on stick. But I suck on pad with him. But for the rest of the cast I use pad
