yeah well today i woke up and noticed that the new cap came in
( suprisinly fast, one day delivery, didnt expect that since my gp2x took a week and a bit to arrive ^-^ )
After pulling off the first cap and placing the new one one the first thing i noticed was that the cap sticks up a lot more than the old one.
This does make playing games a lot easier but its SLIGHTLY harder to put it in my slip case now, I think better game play is worth this EXTREMELY SMALL annoyance.
The second thing you notice about the cap is the GP2X logo on it, this does not look that good under another gp2x logo on the top left of the unit. It provides a bit of grip but i feel that a circle or something would provide better grip IMO.
Now to try it out, booting up the unit and messing about with the menu for 5 minutes was a lot faster now, except its now a bit harder to get the unit to recognise "up". Not much of a problem though.
Hmm, now to try out a game... i choose streets of rage 3 on DRMDX ^-^
ok em, WOW, i forgot how good i am at street of rage, the cap respond SOO much better than the old piece of junk... wait, is that me just completed it? i never completed that with the old cap..
phht try another game..
ok Dynamite headdy, ive been stuck on the last level for agessss- wait completed that too.
Wow im good and its NOT the cap... XD
Oh yeah and that previous problem over the pressing "up" completely disappeared when i started up DRMDX.
In conclusion i think this cap is definately worth changing to if you sadly use the old horror stick.
Ive not tryed the DaveC stick so i cant compare on that so sorry -_-
So your choice, buy now or wait and buy Vectar and get it as a freebie,
It changes the Gp2x ALOT for the better
