I'm looking for the best all around joystick. The magically elusive "everygame" stick. Well with the Happ 49way, GP Wiz 49 encoder, and floyds rotary adapter, I am almost there. If I could only incorporate a topfire in there, I would have everything.
I agree that a triggerfire would be better for accurate rapid fire shooting and more ergonomic for button presses than a topfire. My problem with the triggergrip s that, I cant also play other games with it. I wont want to play Donkey Kong with a big ol trigger grip, nor will I want to throw fireballs in Street Fighter II with a Tron Style trigger grip. But I could do all this stuff with a topfire. And if I wanted to play tron, the topfire would work pretty nice. my $0.02.
