Metal Pad recommendations

What is the consensus on the best metal pad? I'd like one that works with USB and the PS2 controller port, as I have Prex 3, Perfect Collection, and Exceed PS2. I'm looking at the MyMyBox one for $249.99. Is this a good buy?

I personally own a mymybox pad.

It's actually quite great, but not an exact arcade replica.
Your feet still sink a bit, so you don't get that arcade "bounce-back" feeling.
Overall though, i have played LIADZ1 CZ on it and its fine for me.

Just make sure you don't play barefoot.
The edges are sharp.(ripped a hole in one of my socks arrrgh...>.<)
(one of my favorite pairs of socks too...)
Oh,

So yeah, the mymybox metal pad is nice.
Just needs the screws to be retightened after some time.
Mine hasn't broke yet either. XD

Quality = Very Yes

I want to emulate the arcade feeling as much as possible. For ItG/DDR, I was using a Cobalt Flux which is disappointing. Quality, yes, but it's like a different game.

If you're looking for just as close as possible arcade emulation, then mymybox is great.

There's just no bar. ^^u

Either make one yourself, or use a chair hehehe.

i think the best way to go if you want to replicate the arcade as much as possible would be to make 1 your self . you can cusomize and repair it if it breaks down . plus it's mega cheap.(:0)

I second the mymybox... it's quite good... I've got some freestyle action going solidly on it...

I want to know if its possible to play songs like Dignity, Canon-D, Liadz 2 and Chimera CZ with this pad and get the same dance grades that i can get in the arcade.

Is it possible?
