    Arrow Which Force Feedback Joystick?

    What Force Feedback Joysticks do you guys recommend? Want to play a few flight sims but also on a limited budget :/
    Do the older gameport joysticks support XP and newer games?

    Eye popping good!
    There was a funny quote here

    From what I have heard from bein on this forums and others... Force feedback will only hinder you in flight
    You want a saitek cyborg or similar for ease of use, nice rudder control
    when you are a chasin the prey ......you don't need a judder

    Personally i love my ms sidewinder force feedback usb, ive had it a good few years, but its been perfect the whole time. The Force Feedback is good and I think its very comfortable to use. My only complaint would be that the throttle could be a little more substantial!

    Its a shame ms stopped making their sidewinder hardware, I also have their ff wheel which is even better than the joystick!

    Have a look on ebay for one, I recommend USB though not gameport, purely because gameports wont be around for much longer I should think, they are pretty obsolete.


    Hope this helps,

    Wills
