Hey,

Looking to get a joystick, as I am going to buy Flight Simulator X.

Want really the best one, for good value of money I can get. As always price isn't really an issue - but I don't want to spend money on something I will be playing one game on.

Good ones?

I found one for around £6 on ebay. Never gone wrong with it but not at home at the moment to remember the name of it. A cheap one should be fine if you're only a casual player.

If you've got the money. Saitek X52. (or any saitek product) if not; any logitech would be sufficient.
Also; makes sure you have at minimum at quad core and 5770/some GTX4xx and 4gb ram - otherwise FSX won't really play that well and I recomend FS2004 :P

Sorta OT but, i run FSX on a 2.4Ghx dual core, and 1.5gb Ram and 64mb graphics card :D, gunna upgrade graphics soon, although its not to bad to be fair.

On topic. I use an xbox 360 controller :P

You will be surprised, it actually looks great really, ground texture is good, clouds are good, and planes i have on quite high, so you can pick up all the details, but im going to still upgrade :P

You fly online?
