    Ah joysticks and mice. Think the below three are the ones I have most fond memories with:

    I spent so long trying to convince my Dad that this mouse really had three buttons. Finally proved it when a Doom editor I liked actually used the middle button for something (Can't remember what mind you!).

    Microsoft Xbox 360 wireless controller and wireless receiver.

    As someone who's used Amiga joysticks, most Nintendo controllers and various other gamepads, this one just stands out above all others.

    It's only likely competitor to me, going forward, will be the improved Xbox One controller and maybe the Nintendo Switch Pro controller, but only if it can be made to work on PC.

    It would have to be my Xbox 360 controller (The only thing Xbox got right)

    The peak of my gaming prowess was with this combo:



    (albeit UK layout)



    Currently using a Sidewinder Force Feedback 2 for Elite. Although some of my switches are wearing out, so might have to go for a tacky modern joystick.

    Logitech Wheel Mouse Optical:



    I pwned with it so hard back in the day...

    Still have it, but it moves so slowly around a high res screen.
