    The Powerplay Cruiser I have linked below was awesome while mine lasted. I am thinking the Competition Pro was more durable as far as I can remember?

    Quickshot Maverick joystick for the old Amiga. I went through a few of these (especially with StreetFighter 2) but loved them all so much

    I nominate... my hands! Specifically the right and the left one. Couldn't play games without them.

    Re: QOTW: Which is your favourite gaming peripheral of all time?

    I find it hard to think of anything that is more useful than a mouse...

    Especially after they developed lasers to replace the ball... and decent wireless mice these days don't suffer from delay.

    CH Products Combat stick + Pro Pedals + CH Pro Throttle... and finally CH Flight Yoke.

    got it all bought it 10 years ago... it works like when it was new still... best quality ever and something companies liek Razer could learn something from.

    I know it's a boring choice but probably the humble Xbox 360 controller.

    Re: QOTW: Which is your favourite gaming peripheral of all time?

    Dualshock 4 for console gaming, I have smaller hands so the DS series fit them well. The DS4 packs loads in, works well with the PC and some how manages to have a touch pad in.

    Cherry MX Browns on a mech keyboard (currently Gigabyte) + James Donkey Avago Optical and Omron mouse, 3m pads and Func 1030.

    Seriously the Func 1030 is my favourite mouse pad of all time, I've got my original Alienware (pre-Dell) pads. They are amazing. I do a lot of Photoshop work, so I like very accurate very low friction mousing. I colleague called it an ice skating rink.

    Amiga Era I liked my Zip Sticks.

    Very difficult question but a good one.
    I would have to say it was "the expert cartridge" for Commodore 64 back in the day(Yes I am that old).
    Basically it allowed you to freeze program in memory so you could search for and add POKE's to cheat in games, Give you infinite lives and such. That is all I used it for although it had other purposes for copying and such.

    Man, my good old Qhickshot/Quickfire series of joysticks, for use with my C64.

    Broke so many of them waggling them from side to side playing the likes of Track and Field etc.

    Damn, good old days when having a twin tape deck stereo was the best thing to have... and not for playing music on

    Ahh, memories!!

    I had one for the Atari ST. Kept breaking, ended up covered in screws and bolts to hold it together and keep the switches operating cleanly so it looked like something from the Borg in the end, but my word that thing got some use. Specially playing Gauntlet II
