Following on from their first foray into the technology of force feedback, Microsoft have developed the Force Feedback 2 Joystick and although a tad more expensive than your average joystick, one that is certain worth every penny.

Coming with multiple stick fire buttons for the combat aficionados and a mini throttle for the mech fans, this joystick is for everyone. Combine this with 8-dimension movement and you even keep the hardcore of flight sim fans happy.

Microsoft has excelled in what is sure to become the Rolls Royce of the joystick world. One that combines great functionality with fantastic force feedback--walking on snow in Mechwarrior really does feel real.

Although a tad on the expensive side for after all what is only a joystick, it is definitely worth the investment, whether you're a flight sim player or not.--Stuart Miles
