RedOctane-like 8-panel Metal Pad: Product Link N/A
MSRP: N/A ($175->$225)

This is a "pirated" design of RedOctane's 6-panel pad, modified to support the remaining two panels as sensors. It otherwise has the same construction and characteristics of the RedOctane metal pad.

And also, what IS the point of the two down arrows?

It would be awsome if they made 8 arrow DDR

P.S. Sorry Baka, I forgot you can edit messages too >_< These forums are alot different than the ones I go to.

the bottom 2 arrows are only for the triangle and square button purposes... currently you cant use them for anything else unless you play computer versions.

Question:

Is the pad I've linked below the same red octane "like" pad?

http://www.gameenhancer.net/

Is it any good?
It seems better priced than than some. I'm wondering if it's a good backup option if I don't get the CF pads, and if it's better than the TX-1000 or 2000 series?

If all goes well, I can post a review on it in a few days, then again I can't play anything above a 7 footer, so I suck.

So wait...did you just order the one I posted a link to from game enhancer?

That's going to be interesting. I really wonder how it is, because the price is definitely alright compared to some of these other ones.

hmm looks interesting... poly carbonated arrows... the 6 arrow version is just exactly like the redocatne except it doesnt have the logo on the bottom and is cheaper... hmmm.

Perhaps bumping the topic will get his attention? I would really appreciate a quick review of the pad before I purchase two...

*EDIT* PM Sent. Hopefully he will see it eventually.

GameEnhancer.net/Lucky97 is in Edmonton, yes.

You could try PMing him to ask him about it.
