Customer Review: saitek joystick rules
Summary: 4 Stars

I just got this joystick like a week ago and it rocks it took me less than a minute to install it, i bought this joystick for my pacific fighter games and am looking forward for mfs2004. the only problem with this joystick is there is no landing gear button so i had to alwas use the keybord.

Customer Review: Great but not perfect
Summary: 4 Stars

This is a great and inexpensive joystick. I knew it wasn't the best one but for the price it was OK. It actually looks and works great but is probably not for hardcore gamers. I can only recommend it to beginners or casual gamers.

Customer Review: Almost perfect
Summary: 4 Stars

Does not function with Microsoft Fighter Ace II, but works with Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004, do not know why. And it is not as comfortable as it looks. But otherwise is OK.

Customer Review: angry potential buyer
Summary: 4 Stars

why on earth does this joystick cost so much? I buy one almost every year and at walmart and it costs 19.99. What the hell is wrong with amazon.com

Customer Review: Cheap and Functional
Summary: 3 Stars

Here's the deal this a cheap functional joystick with very few buttons. That means that if you're playing any Sim style games (Mechwarrior, Freespace, flight sim, ect), You've got a joystick to fly with, but that doesn't mean you're going to be using it for more than that, all of the wrest of controls are still on your keyboard The throttle is a letdown, it's sturdy, but being on the rear in the center sucks, the joystick doesn't seem like it would hold up for super long, I bought it to bide time until I could get a Steel Battalion controller and a Xbox to USB converter, If you're not a hardcore Sim fan this joystick is worth the money, anyone looking to get more function should look elsewhere. That being said the rudder twist is fairly sensitive and takes alittle getting used to, but once you do it's actually the most pleasant thing about the joystick.
