Your favorite joystick

There's a joystick named Thrustmaster?

ARRRGHH, IGNORANT FOOL!!!! *throws stones at 3rd Impact*

I've never needed one, but if I ever bought a joystick, that'd be the brand.

For starter, you can try TM Top Gun. Pretty solid for low-ends. However, if you don't use different sticks to play realistic jet sims (where you need to keep your stick on good shape because all those precision for landing and mid-air refueling) and WWII/space/arcade sims (where you usually *ABUSE* your sticks during those hot dogfights), I would recommend CH joysticks. They're very durable.

If you're looking for high-end TMs, HOTAS Cougar is the only choice (except if you're still playing in DOS, you better look on eBay for some used F-16 FLCS. Don't worry about the condition, you can always replace the pots). The bad news: TM don't make pedals anymore . The good newd, Cougar works with any pedals with 15-pin gameport connector. So the killer combo would be a HOTAS Cougar with Hoffman Simped VARIO rudder pedals. Hoffman site was entirely in German, though, so you may want to try "Ich mochte eine Simped pedals einkaufen" or something

Well Saitek is British, so that may be the reason.

Saitek is pretty well-known in the country I live (Indonesia), but here they're more popular for low-end sticks (there are some Taiwan license, or was it Hong Kong?). Frankly I'm pretty surprised knowing they make high-ends, harcore products.

Though they do make very excellent products despite their bad teeth.

And weird accent. If you watch Covington Cross you'll know what I mean...

Just tell me if you plan to sell those helmet/breathing mask combo, would ya!

A thousand bucks and it's yours. About four more thousand and I'll throw in matching NVGs.

Gotta start saving, I guess..........
