I just discovered FoF. Haven't yet tried it, but in concept, it sounds great. Kinda does to GH what StepMania does to DDR. I'm a big StepMania fan and bought a nice pad over at buynshop.com after researching them quite extensively. It looks like they also sell some PS2 controllers:

Does anybody have any experience with these controllers? If so please reply to this thread.

Thanks!

Sure. Those are fairly common controllers "around here."

If you want to try FoF before purchasing any hardware, you can play with the keyboard too (in case you didn't know). You'll get the general experience without spending any dough.

Feel free to check out the FoF Wiki (and the other links in my sig) for more info on FoF and these forums. Enjoy!

I have the rock guitar. It's just a fake GH1 controller. Haha

Already have GH3 for the Wii (and I'm pretty much addicted), so I'm already sold. I'm trying to figure out whether to buy a PS2 controller or spring for the xbox 360 x-plorer (I'm not planning on getting GH3 for the PC, I've seen too many complaints regarding it's high hardware requirements).

The dance pads sold at buynshop are decent. We bought one for my daughter that's held up very well. I was wondering if the guitar controllers they carry are good as well. Sounds as if they're just carrying commodity stuff. Is the price any good? Gamebaz carries the Freedom V Wireless for $39+shipping. Is that a better deal? I've seen that guitar recommended a couple of times here.

Thanks!

You want the cherry SG (Option 3). Hands-down it is the most solidly-built GH controller I've used (G1 SG, G2 SG, Cherry SG, Striker).

Oh, if you use a wireless modem, avoid using wireless guitars... Might get interference.

Gah, I hate the cherry SGs. The 360 X-plorer pwns it, you should get that instead.
