Alice: Madness Returns – A nostalgic review
Alice: Madness Returns is the much anticipated follow up (by me, anyway) to 2000’s PC/Mac game American McGee’s Alice – the dark and gritty telling of Alice’s post-Looking Glassadventures in what has now become a twisted version of Lewis Carroll’s Wonderland. The original game had Alice following an anorexic, pierced Cheshire Cat around a grotesque Wonderland, presumably due to Alice’s inclement insanity, slashing her way through the Red Queen’s guards amongst other familiar faces from Carroll’s universe with a bloody knife, and the sequel delivers more of the same.
Okay Ash, you need a new nickname: Sentinel. After all, you are a mutant racist too
Are you just going to use the standard 360 controller or are you going to pick up something special for the game?
haha – Ive been meaning to get a stick for ages, but I’ve gotten pretty good with the wired Capcom 6 button pad that came out with Street Fighter 4. If I can find a good stick that feels like an actual arcade stick, I’m in!
What about…

Or maybe you can mod out those old Dreamcast controllers you have…except you’d be missing buttons.
Sadly I sold those controllers a few years ago I think along with the Dreamcast and MVC2.
I think you can have them custom built to your specification. The SF4 sticks need a little more weight. What really weirded me out about them though is that the stick has a square gate (meaning the range of motion of the stick). I think most arcade sticks, especially for games this like this, have round gates.
