Microsoft is evil but this joystick is good

Date of Review:  Mar 15, 2000
Review: From MechWarrior to Wing Commander, I was looking for a digital joystick that had an abundance of buttons, rudder control, and throttle control. The SideWinder Precision Pro totally delivers.

The solid construction is ergonomically designed...

Great joystick in all respects

Date of Review:  Aug 9, 2001
The Bottom Line: The most precise and powerful joystick you will find anywhere...
Review: I absolutely love this joystick! It has 8 buttons with a shift key for 16 button functionality, and an 8-way POV hat, so you basically have 24 programmable actions! You can have either keystrokes or macros (so you can use a button as a cheat, for...

An overall GREAT Joystick for any Gamer!

Date of Review:  May 28, 2000
Review: This was my first time using a digital joystick and, I?ll tell you, the experience went quite well. The reason I had bought it was basically because I needed a joystick that could be used harshly with any game and I had heard that this was the best...

The BEST Joystick

Date of Review:  Aug 29, 2000
Review: Quite awhile ago I purchased Microsoft's Sidewinder Precision Pro joystick. I was skeptical at first, because some of Microsoft?s products had been shabby in the past. Fortunately, this joystick worked very well.

The joystick has some nice...

A great joystick for great games

Date of Review:  Aug 7, 2001
The Bottom Line: This is a good Joystick for gamers who want great useability with few unnessasary options.
Review: This Joy stick is awesome! The great thing is that you can make very small movements and it picks them up with amazing accuracy. This ability is VERY important in games such as Motocross Madness 2, and Half-Life. To me, it is a very comfortable...

Solid, but lacking.

Date of Review:  Nov 8, 1999
Review: PC flight simulation has come a long way since the days of Bruce Artwick's SubLogic "Flight Simulator" during the early 80s. As flight-sims evolved along with more powerful computers, control precision and realism became a top priority for me. I...

I like this thing!

Date of Review:  Oct 10, 2000
Review: When I started to get games for my computer I soon realized that I needed to get a joystick to get the proper gaming experience. I went to CompUSA and checked out their wide selection of joysticks. They had some nice equipment, but there were also...

Date of Review:  Nov 11, 1999
Review: To spend money like this for a joystick, make sure it works first. I never could get my Force Feedback Pro to work on my system. I talked with tech support (not cheap), and they couldn't figure it out either. I learned a lot about Windows Safe mode...

Precision is it's first name!

Date of Review:  Feb 17, 2000
Review: I've got to say that this is one of the BEST, joysticks that I've seen in a while. It is a basic joystick, meaning no fancy dancy feedback stuff, it's just a normal, no above normal normal joystick. I've found that it has too amny buttons for some...
