Hori FS3 Fight stick for PS3

I've owned one for a few years. Whether this stick will be right for you depends on how skilled you are at fighting games, but it's generally been a solid budget stick for me. The unresponsive buttons and light weight are probably its biggest weaknesses. It's been pretty durable, however.
I noticed that amazon is currently selling the PS3 brawl stick for $49.99. I think the upgrade in button quality and the heavier weight make the brawl stick worth the extra ten bucks, although that stick isn't perfect either.
If you think you might be more serious about fighting games, then nothing beats the higher end sticks, of course. You can usually catch sales fairly often. It won't be too hard to find one of the madcatz TE sticks for $100.

Yeah, if you can upgrade to the bigger ones, like the HRAP3, or any of the TE sticks with full Sanwa parts. $40 is a nice price for that stick, as long as you don't give a rat about upgrading its parts which will happen if you look at the Tech Talk section of the Shoryuken forum. It'll be fine anyway.
so would you both suggest that modding a stick is fairly easy? cause I would be into that idea if it wasn't terribly difficult.
I have a hori stick for 360, its the tekken 6 one. its not bad, but the stick itself doesn't really cut it in terms of if I am in love with it.

The wired sticks are fine, it's just a snooty preference that you mod it anyway. If you are a heavy gamer and prone to breaking your video game controllers rather easily, you're going to need to upgrade higher for easier modability/repair.
In case you do want to modify your Hori stick.
I forget what the innards of the PS3/360 standard sticks look like. If the buttons are stuck on to a PCB instead of wires, be prepared with some supplies. Do a google search on modding guides, since CAG isn't as obsessive as you might think.
