360 Fighting Pad Question

Ok, I'm no hardcore fighting game dood. But, I love Marvel vs. Capcom and the second is coming to XBLA next week! I only have standard 360 controllers, never owned a pad of any sort in my life, and I'd like to stand a ''fighting'' chance online (sorry couldn't resist). I'm not going to spend $60-$100 on a fighting pad because, frankly, I dont play fighting games all that much on my 360. I am, however, looking at getting SFII HD, SFIV and maybe BlazBlue in the future.My question is: Are these pads good enough for me to use with my fighting games on the 360? I've read that they feel fairly cheap, which is fine. I dont expect an amazing controller for $20-$40. I simply want a ''better'' controller, with which to enjoy fighting games. I cant stand using the regualr 360 pads, I cant pull off moves at all. Anyone ever use one of these? Thanks for the guidance. :)360 Fighting Pad Question
Yeah, I have one and I really like it. I play fighting games with it and it's also great for classics like the Sega Genisis Collection. Be warned though....it's wired.:?360 Fighting Pad Question

I can get one of these relatively cheap and I'd get a Hori stick I found for $55-$60, but theyre on backorder on every site I go to for that price. I simply wont pay more than that, plus the shipping wait is 1-3 weeks on avg. Whats with that?! Probably going to get one of these. :)
Ended up ordering the Chun-Li pad. :) Read a lot about them and they seem like a good introductory controller for fighting games, which is all I'm wanting. Hori sticks are entirely out of stock everywhere anyway. Hope this shows up before MvC 2 is released! :D
I got the Chun-Li one also and love it. It's so much better than the standard 360 directional pad. I also don't mind it being wired since it comes in handy for PC retro gaming. The layout of the buttons is perfect for Killer Instinct and Mortal Kombat.
Awesome! Well I'm sure I'll enjoy it then. :) I dont mind that its wired either, just equals PC emulator fun. :P
