Guest Fondas Posted October 12, 2001 Posted October 12, 2001 I want to make clear that this is NOT a "what joystick do you own" thread , so I want only topic related answers. I'm about to purchase a joystick and the two which have reached the finals are - Microsoft's Sidewinder Force Feddback 2 and - Logitech's Strike Force 3D Which one would you prefer and why ? ------------------ "No matter how pretty the bait, a hook is still a hook !"

Guest Zoom Rabbit Posted October 12, 2001 Posted October 12, 2001 Definitely the Logitech! Here's why: 1. Microsoft is the tool of the devil. 2. I'm afraid of snakes. 3. 'Force' isn't as exciting as 'Strike force.' 4. 3D is always better than 2. Delighted to help. No charge.

Keyan Farlander Posted October 12, 2001 Posted October 12, 2001 I honestly don't know anything about either one of these joysticks, but don't rule out Microsoft just because it's Microsoft. My Microsoft joystick is absolutely fabulous, and I wouldn't trade it for any stick on the market.
Nute Gunray Posted October 12, 2001 Posted October 12, 2001 I have a Sidewinder Precision Pro and I love it to death. Logically, a Sidewinder Precision Pro 2 with Force Feedback is SUPERIOR to the Precision Pro 1 with no Force Feedback. The Sidewinder gets: FIVE GUNRAY HEADS

Guest Rogue15 Posted October 13, 2001 Posted October 13, 2001 I got a Saitek Cyborg 2000 it's perfect for most 1st person shooters, and flight combat simulators, it's got 3 thumb buttons, a trigger, and a 4 way hat. also has wrist support, and u can configure it for your hand. i got it for....$40. I got 10% off though cause a friend of mine worked in electronic boutique.
edlib Posted October 13, 2001 Posted October 13, 2001 Originally posted by Zoom Rabbit: All citizens be on the lookout for terror clowns with rainbow wigs! That's always good advice... I, personally, have been doing that for years!
Rogue Nine Posted October 13, 2001 Posted October 13, 2001 Go with the Logitech. I trust them with my sticks more than Microsoft.
Keyan Farlander Posted October 13, 2001 Posted October 13, 2001 I've read a little about them now, and I'd say go with the Microsoft stick.

Helix Posted October 14, 2001 Posted October 14, 2001 I have a Microsoft Sidewinder Force Feedback Pro.
Guest Zoom Rabbit Posted October 15, 2001 Posted October 15, 2001 So if I see some dude with a hat like that getting in the shower with me...it's time for the Bruce Lee kicking, right?

Rogue Nine Posted October 16, 2001 Posted October 16, 2001 n00t and PB scare me. Highly. But we alread knew that.
GUNNER Posted October 17, 2001 Posted October 17, 2001 Go with the MS, I can get one for dirt cheap at the MS company store and mail it to ya. Sure the postage might be steep but wouldn't you like to get something from the GUNmeister in the mail? Better yet, you can have mine, I have no need for it now that I have become completely addicted to playing Counter-Strike 24/7
