What joystick to buy?

Archived from groups: alt.games.command.and.conquer (More info?)

Don't buy a joystick to play games like C&C, they're only really
designed (and only really used) for driving and flying games. Gamepads
are used for slightly more things, such as Fifa but you still wouldn't
want to play a strategy game with them.

If you want a reasonable one though, I have a Logitech Wingman Force 3D
which has force feedback, throttle, rudder, 7 buttons and cost about £30
which is plenty for the average gamer. If you want to get serious you
could but the Hotas Cougar for £249 but it's up to you........
