I just thought I would mention I new joystick I bought from gravis it's called
the pc gamepad. It was selling at software ETC for around $24.00. I was
skeptical at first bacause I'm a big fan of the flight stick from CH, but there
was a 30 day money back from ETC so I gave it a wirl. Its GREAT! sure it
doesn't work to well in Falcon 3.0 or other type of simulations games, for
those I still love the CH flightstick, but for arcade games like the Viking
child or 4d boxing and many others if fabublous! But keep in mind takes Both
hands to use it, so games that have you constantly going to the keyboard its a
pain, but it comes with four buttons, 2 buttons for button one and 2 buttons
for button 2, you can config it so that one button auto-fire and the other is
standard fire, plus it can be switch for both left and right handers. Now I
wouldn't normaly go raving about a joystick, but it really has made some games
alot more fun. Just before you buy it make sure you can return it if you dont
like it.

Just my opinion.
