ahhh friday was a good day. got my copy of sf4 which came with a dorky headband, picked up my brand new hrap3 and my frank kozik autographed smorkin labbit for my collection.

man i am loving my hrap3. the build quality is excellent, really sturdy and heavy too! the joystick is great although theres a bit of a learning curve for me. im used to playing on american arcade machines and havent really played anything in the arcade since sf3. im not used to the japanese style sticks but after a little mental re-training and a few days its all good. the buttons on the hrap3 are ok, they are not as sensitive as i had hoped. sometimes you have to mash on them (like when doing 3x punch/kick), they are also a bit loud and have a mushy/dampening feel. they are good for now though, ive already scoped out white sanwa buttons and are going to order them soon.

who on here has actually worn the headband? dont be shy... post a pic!
