    There is nothing better.

    MMMMaybe you need a better game card?  There is more to it than just the
joystick.

    Got mine.  Works with MechWarrior 2, Flight Unlimited, Decent, just to
name a few.  I personally think it is better than the Thrustmaster because it
is cheaper, you can't drop pennies into the base (friend of mine actually did
that), doesn't get destroyed as easily, has a better feel and isn't
springloaded for Arnold.  :)
