Joysticks

February 15th, 2005 · No Comments · Games

Joystick Directory at Joystick Review. No one seems to be playing flight simulators anymore, so the reviews I’ve seen of joysticks are usually a couple of years old.

Microsoft has even exited the business, although ebay has quite a few SideWinder Force Feedback 2 around. Thye have a great rating of 89.5 out of 100.

Thrustmaster (now acquired by Guillemet) traditionally makes the most realistic joysticks. The most accurate current model is called the HOTAS Cougar at at $250 according to Pricegrabber it had better be incredible.

The Top Gun Fox 2 Pro is still around and was super highly rated at 92.5 out of 100 and its a very reasonable $35.

Finally there is the Saitek X45 which is way overboard for the hard core gamer. Comes with both a throttle and a stick. At $77, its very complicated and really for the hard core gamer.
