How much do you want to pay?

money no object? Get the Thrustmaster Cougar (http://europe.thrustmaster.com/products/d_prd.php?p=T65&fam=39)!

Something a bit cheaper? get Saitek X45 or X52 (http://www.saitek.com/uk/prod/joysticks.htm)

Oh Jesus! Spitfires never had that kinda stuff! I play IL-2 FB+ Pacific fighters and have a Logitech Wingman Strike Force 3D Pro Kill Everyone not really. I suppose it depends on which game/sim you're playing. Which game ARE you playing?

I'm no fan of microsoft but I'v been using a Sidewinder FF 2 for about 4 years now and it works like its brand new. (though I dont use it too often) I went through a number of crappy joysticks before this one.

As far as I know, microsoft dont make them anymore.

I'v read Saitek Cyborg were ment to be good and unexpensive. Anybody used these?
