Guest Gold Squadron Leader Posted February 9, 2001 Share Posted February 9, 2001 Yes, read thread in this forum titled "Anyone using a gamepad?" My recommendation for a great joystick considering features vs. price = Gravis Blackhawke Digital. http://www.gravis.com/products/pro_eli_d1023.html ------------------ Ties are flies, swat'em!

Guest Rogue9 Posted February 9, 2001 Share Posted February 9, 2001 Although it pains me to support microsoft I would have to say they make a superior joystick go hear to lock at the models, I recommend to Precision Pro USB http://microsoft.com/products/hardware/sidewinder/default.htm ------------------ Leader of 3 Flight 4 in the Green, Weapons Hot, Torps Armed...Oops [This message has been edited by Rogue9 (edited February 09, 2001).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rogue15 Posted February 9, 2001 Share Posted February 9, 2001 Why doesn't anybody like microsoft? Is it because most of their stuff has glitches??? The first game i ever had on my old computer was by microsoft, it was called: Fury 3 trial version, man i can still rmember all the hours spent on that thing. Once i destroyed all the enemies on the planet and kept going in the tunnels to get points. aaah the memories! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rogue9 Posted February 9, 2001 Share Posted February 9, 2001 Allow me to shed some light on why I don't like Microsoft. I am Responsible for the maintinance and upgrading of over 600 computers every single one running microsoft products, I am also responsible for training people to use these systems. do you have any Idea what training people is like. it can be a real pain especially if they are sure they know a better way to do it. ------------------ Leader of 3 Flight 4 in the Green, Weapons Hot, Torps Armed...Oops [This message has been edited by Rogue9 (edited February 09, 2001).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gold Squadron Leader Posted February 10, 2001 Share Posted February 10, 2001 MS Sidewinder Precision 2 is listed, newer version of Precision Pro USB I guess. Nice looking stick. It has 3 more programmable buttons and a stick twist rudder control, but the rest of the features look about the same as the Blackhawke. Retail price of $55. I wouldn't buy it without a rebate or a big sale. $35 more than Blackhawke. And as for MS, the only thing I have against them is everything! ------------------ Ties are flies, swat'em!
