Do you guys know any other tablet that is as good as this one for osu? The site doesnt seem to sell this model anymore and my tablet is getting pretty old. Should I just order it from another site? Or look for a whole new model. I don't know how the new tablets like "Bamboo Connect" would work for osu. Do you guys think the bamboo connect or another model works as good as the pen & touch one I have?
If theres a site that sell my CTH-460 model please let me know.
Or give different tablet suggestions.
:D

retailers still carry them.

I use a CTL-460, same thing just doesn't have the "touch" feature, can only use the pen:

Don't be afraid to buy a refurbished one, I bought mine refurbished, comes with a one year warranty, brand new in box and everything :)


I'm assuming this is the new version of the CTH 460:

Bamboo connect is just the new version of bamboo pen so I don't see a reason why it wouldn't be good for osu, buying it next week myself.

I heard that you can't adjust the area o-o. Someone told me the connect won't be able to adjust the area for pen. But when you get it let me know how good it is please.

The tablet looks huge. Is it good with gameplay in osu? like is it as good as the 460?

Well it should be since it's basically the same tablet, just bigger and more prettier. Gonna test it out on Wednesday when I get back home.

Sorry so much I have been having some problems with other things so I forgot but now I'll tell you.

The tablet is fine, it's the same as the CTL/CTH-460, and you CAN adjust the active area. The tablet will use a detachable cable that is only 1m long so it's pretty short but you can buy a longer one for sure. The active area is actually the same size as it is on the CTL/CTH-460, which is indicated by markings.

It is really only a prettier looking upgrade with a better pen and a detachable cable. And more pressure sensitive.

It should be noted that all you need for osu! in a tablet is absolute cursor movement (as opposed to relative movement, as in mice).

You can play osu! just as fine on a Graphire 3 as you can on an Intuos4 - if you plan on using the tablet on only osu!, then it does not matter what you get. You might as well grab a $20 Graphire3/4 off of someone on Craigslist and it'll serve you just as well as the new Bamboo for osu!. The Bamboo line (sans the first one) actually have this paper-like texture on them that makes it feel more natural for traditional artists moving into the digital realm, but would actual hinder your performance in osu! until you got used to it.

I haven't tried the new Bamboo yet, but from my experience with the second-gen Bamboos (CTH-460), the multitouch isn't really a selling point and the pen height recognition is a bit less than I'm used to. If they've improved on this on the new Bamboo, then I'd go for that. Either way won't make a difference in osu!, but for digital art, you'll have to be more picky.
