I own the Saitek Cyborg 3D USB II since 2001. An awesome joy in my opinion. Still in a good condition. Can be rearranged for lefties and palm height as well.Cost me 40 USD back then. That's nearly identical to the Saitek Cyborg 2000. I didn't even know anything about joys actually. My colleague told me I should by Cyborg. Told him I had never heard about it. "What?! You don't know Cyborg?!" then I, in Obi-Wan style: "Should I have?" then he's like "They make the best joys on planet Earth!!". So I bought into it and never looked back. Very good joy indeed.

The Logitech Wingman 3001 is what defines 90's PC joysticks for me. I remember not only having one but some of my friends too.

The Microsoft Sidewinder Force Feedback 2 is the best stick ever.

I think it's overrated. It is solid and has some high tech appeal with it's infrared sensor (nice Darth Vader effect of centering into your hand when it approaches the sensor) and electromagnets instead of springs, but I always flew better and more competitive with my Saitek Cyborg, even when that was worn out quite a bit.

Agreed. I've had mine since 2005 or so. Just unbelievable how robust it is. Thousands of hours in FS 2002, 2004, FSX. All Battlefield series aircrafts since BF Desert combat, up to BF3...

@@NuntiusLegis the issue is, the FFB 2 receives signals from DirectInput making it compatible with an astounding number of games. There's a DIY FFB yoke that captures telemetry data and in-game yoke position but it only works with two flight sims. If you want the feel of the stick tension you need to get into the world of gimbals that have cam profiles to change the leverage of the spring as you pull, which are expensive as hell and have no actual FFB. The Sidewinder FFB is not about having the most competitive stick. In terms of button layout and quantity it flat out sucks compared to modern sticks. It's about feeling the air pressure on the control surfaces, it's about the correct trim function flying helicopters. It's an electronic love letter to aviation that sadly has been out of production for almost 20 years. And for that reason, it deserves the title of best stick ever.

The Thrustmaster Top Gun stick is actually not the same stick as used in the F-14, it's based off of the B-8 grip, which was used in a variety of fighters.

five years late, you should try and find a Blackhawk Digital. it adds about 4 buttons on the grip and a hat. big con: software defined serial drivers. pro on that con: supports two sticks on one port

For "the best" 90's Joystick would be the Thrustmaster HOTAS setup of the F-16 FLCS/F-22 Pro, F-16 TQS, and Elite peddals. The CH Products of the Combat Stick with their throttle and pedals were a slight step down, but nothing else got anywhere close...

The Top Gun joystick is not the one you want, it was cheaply made. If you want that stick go with the higher quality version, Thrustmaster Mark II. And you went through naming all of these sticks but you didn't mention the Thrustmaster FLCS? F16 replica with fully programmable buttons before that was a common thing, it's a fantastic stick. Props for mentioning the Wingman though, that was one hell of a stick.

The drivers are present as you say, but Windows 98 has a bug where it fails to detect Sidewinder products if the CPU features >100mhz Frontside Bus. It's a known error, which Microsoft even acknowledged in the day, but never patched. There are enthusiast-made patches, which I can confirm work. The fact remains, it's not an out-of-the-box install for many users.

Yeah it's a kinda shitty problem - some people get it, others don't. The FFB series came slightly later, so may well work better with the newer raft of Intel CPUs. Included software may have helped too. The most fun part about running a retro PC is the complete lack of information out there. The internet didn't really exist in 1998, so trying to find P2 build guides is a lot harder than trying to find one for a Z97 i7 build (for instance)! :-D

It's a pity I didn't think of buying one earlier when my Saitek ST200 started giving me problems five years ago or so, they were much more affordable back then but I didn't even know they still existed, I remember seeing them in magazines in the 90s.

After countless hours of use, my CH Flightstick Pro still looks and feels like it's brand new after 30 years.... which makes it quite puzzling that the same company somehow produced *that* abomination. 🤔

CH made some fantastic devices, and some poor decisions 😆

Thank god PS2 thumbsticks made these things obsolete. Talk about a monstrosity. It was impossible to play with them.

Microsoft stopped support for this family quite some time ago. Your best best is to get a Rockfire USB adapter. I hear good things about these things. It should hopefully recognise and install the stick, but you *may* lose the six-axis features.

i soud call CH Gamestick a Dilido-stick

No Microsoft Force Feedback 2 joystick? Shame!

Ugh. This list sucks. Personally I wouldn't buy a CH anything if you threw it in my hands and paid me to get it out of your sight. Ugly, overpriced, clunky junk. I had the Saitek Cyborg. Another piece of junk that went back to best buy after a week. As for the Microsoft stuff, it was also overpriced. Still have my Logitech Wingman Attack, the gameport version. At the time, all I wanted was throttle control for F22ADF and a couple others. Unfortunately the Windows joystick setup blows... the center always jiggles. I ended up with a couple of games that relied on that crap. Couldn't fly for beans because I couldn't even trim out the centering error. Anyways, back to topic... Seriously, no mention of the Suncom F-15E series? Or the Thrustmaster HOTAS? How's about the Saitek X36 (before USB and before Mad Catz took them over)? I had the X36... didn't really use it much because it took up so much space on a small desk and we didn't have a decent PC at the time.

I'm very sorry I didn't mention the joysticks that you like

Gets a brand new joystick. Proceeds to complain about how its stuff and costs more than other more spongey well worn second hand sticks... Ueah. Alright mate.

This video was made seven years ago, and was made for my enjoyment. I had fun. It would have been nice if you could have embraced that.
