    markman i have one question i am sure you know this cuz you have played with lars. this is important to me please answer this. there this vedio which i am sure you have already seen it where gautama is playing against 200won youtube.com/watch?v=asIs24stwdc where lars uses low punch at 6:44 followed by sliding double kick at 6:45…. is this a juggle what i mean is that, is sliding double kick a guarantee hit after you use low punch against your opponent with lars?

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asIs24stwdc sorry i messedup the link here is the correct one

    • Inserity says:

      That would be a question best suited for TZ forums, but I can answer it.

      d+1+2 (the low move that KD), ff3+4 is not guaranteed. The opp can get up and block the low. If they block it, it’s launchable so be careful when using it.

      Here’s the link to the Lars Specific Forums: http://www.tekkenzaibatsu.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=189

      On topic, the HRAP3:SA looks so nice with the silver plate and white buttons. Sure you can easily swap out buttons for whatever you want on an original HRAP3, but the white “metal” plate makes a difference.

      And there is a HRAP3:SE, but it has a Semitsu stick. There’s no combo with a JLF AND Semitsu buttons.

    To anyone who is on the fence about getting an arcade stick, I would recommend thinking about pre-ordering one of these. As a side note, I finally swapped out my HRAP3’s Hori buttons for actual Sanwa buttons last week, it was worth it.

    Hori, where’s the PS3 Seimitsu tho?

  4. Farhan says:

    why are you sdtekken guys such fans of sticks?
    I mean PS controllers work well

    • WhiteSnake says:

      why are fans are Arcades Sticks
      because when a new console comes out we dont have to adjust to standard controller when all you can do is
      buy an arcadestick:)

    • MarkMan says:

      Don’t get me wrong, I love controllers too. But what is there to say about them? They’re good, they work. There’s nothing interesting/new about them. lol.

  5. Emil1212 says:

    @kayuza

    Agreed. The PS3 Seimitsu would be my preference, o well. Beggars can’t be choosers.

  6. Colin says:

    Farhan, arcade sticks are used for precision. Without it the characters’ move lists are limited. In short terms, try Bryan’s main launcher on a controller. It’s
    close to impossible.

    • Farhan says:

      I’d still stick to the plain sony controllers because I’m used to them and I’m not much of an arcar anywayde playeYeah I guess you guys are right. on controllers it’s almost impossible to perform King’s chain throws at will.

      • Farhan says:

        Yeah I guess you guys are right. on controllers it’s almost impossible to perform King’s chain throws. On arcades you could probably do them at will.

        I’d still stick to the plain sony controllers though because I’m used to them and I’m not much of an arcade playerr anyway

  7. tekkenlover says:

    markman come on answer my question:(

    • Inserity says:

      I answered it for you. He’d probably say the same thing, or would know if he doesn’t play Lars.

      d1+2 (low punch), ff3+4 (sliding kick) is not guaranteed. Opp can block it.

  8. tekkenlover says:

    nnnnnnnnnoooooooooo:(

  9. MyOwnWorstEnemy says:

    Should I get this (for the authentic arcade feel) instead of the wireless stick bundle for Tekken 6?

    Does the wireless stick in the bundle really lag?

  10. Ric says:

    Arcade battle is the real war zone for me, and consoles are for practice zones only..most of the time.

  11. Ric says:

    Arcade sticks are still best for fighting games tho.. at least for me. When i play console tekken i just practice, for me controllers are still good for platform games.

  12. Inserity says:

    I’ve been pad player for a long time. Once I started playing T6 in the arcades, I was forced to switch to stick. Now I won’t go back. You have so much more freedom in movement and buttons presses compared to a PS pad.

    If you can somehow try a good quality stick out, it’ll feel weird at first but I guarantee you’ll like it better.

    I can still play pad of course, but I prefer stick now.

  13. Dilly says:

    Looks like Hori is definitely taking the launch of tekken 6 seriously.

  14. Ceasar Deebo says:

    will this be released in the uk ?

  15. What’s up, I would like to subscribe for this weblog to take hottest
    updates, thus where can i do it please assist.
