Title: Saitek X-52 joystick and throttle
Post by: vidmouse on May 07, 2009, 10:25:56 pm
Considering getting one of these
(http://image01.bizrate-images.com/resize?sq=200&uid=304850956)

for a new cockpit/minicockpit cab, or even just to play around with, not
sure yet.   Really want it to play Mechwarrior-style games, but
am curious how others have used them.  (if you say flight sims,
which ones)

Anyone use them for non-flight sim games?

I've always wanted to try one of those, i like saitek's cyborg joysticks.  (the earlier ones that were fully adjustable and looked like robot parts).  I added a Nostromo pad cheaper than going the full controller route for mechwarrior games.
