Pros: provides very realistic feel Cons: cost but I think it is worth it even though I don't use one often
When I play a game I usually play with the keyboard and the mouse and not a joystick but if I was going to use any joystick at all I would use this one. First of all, sidewinder is definitely the best joystick that you can buy. It is definitely better...
Pros: DIGITAL PERCISION! INCLUDES EXCELLENT FORCE FEEDBACK! It is very durable! Cons: It can be a little pricy and the force feedback feature isn't compatable with every game.
The Microsoft SideWinder Force Feedback Pro is the newest edition to my joystick collection. Actually, I don't collect joysticks, but it might seem that way; I currently have 4 total PC gaming devices. The reason that I bought a new joystick was for the...
Pros: No Batteries Needed Cons: More game profiles would be nice.
So you like flight and space simulation games? Microsoft has been producing a line of gaming peripherals known as the SideWinders to tailor to your game. Among these many controllers, wheels, and joysticks lies the Force Feedback Pro. The Force Feedback...
Pros: Quick Action, Accurate Controls Cons: Starting to be out of date
Sidewinder 3D-Prod was my first joystick for my PC. I don't play a lot of games or simulation games that require it but I got a good deal on it and some free software with the purchase made the deal even sweeter.
Pros: Force Feedback, Software, Digital Accuracy Cons: Sloppy around the center, FF doesn't support every game, a bit big
A year ago I went out looking for a new Joystick. I heard of these Force Feedback joysticks, Joysticks that move and vibrate, and immediately decided I would get one of those.
After coming back home, I immediately opened the package. I...
Pros: Very realistic forces, lots of fun Cons: somewhat bulky and hard to store, but ITS WORTH IT!!
I am a fanatic of Flight simulators. I have every single flight simulator I know that is out. I am 13, and I want to obtain a career in the Navy with F-14s. Great Flight Simulators have given me plenty of practice, and this is all thanks to my...
This stick broke on me TWICE. Once during Mech Warriors and once during Fighter Ace. I shelled out the $129 at the time thinking it was a lot but I didn't care because I thought the return of play was going to take me to the next level. Boy, was I...
Pros: USB, ease of use, ergonomically designed Cons: Limited range of movement
Why do some people buy computers? GAMES!!!! I really didn't buy a computer with playing games on my mind, but after playing few games it seems like that's all I use my computer for these days. I have a Playstation, but the graphics between the two are...
Pros: Grip feels great. Plenty of buttons, all reachable. No longer has unusually loud fan. Cons: Still has unnecessarily large footprint. Feedback isn't as strong as older models.
I tried out my friend’s MS Sidewinder Force Feedback Pro about four months before I bought mine. This was back in 1999. I really liked the feedback in the race games I played with him (Carmageddon 2 and Motocross Madness are the only ones that come to...
Pros: Well designed and very functional. Cons: Heavy, expensive, and needs to be plugged into the wall.
10 And the gamer did look upon the joystick and behold it in all its glory.
11 And he saw that is was good.
12 And the gamer was heard to say, "Dude..."
Say what you will about their operating systems, but Microsoft actually manages...
Pros: Adds extra interactivity to games, works with Windows XP, durable Cons: Now outdated, not USB, limited support in games, quite expensive, big
Before I start this review I would like to make a couple of things quite clear.
Firstly, I am reviewing Force Feedback 1 and not the newer USB Force Feedback 2.
Secondly, I did not buy this joystick myself but had it given to me by a relative....
Pros: Ease of use, improved game experience Cons: separate power needed, base a little light
I just got this new force feedback joystick from Microsoft and so far I must say that it truly adds a new dimension to your gaming. It is amazing how much it can add to a video game. It is especially good for some of the newer racing games such as...
Pros: Fits hand nicely Cons: only for right handers
The Microsoft Force Feedback Pro joystick lets you feel the game as you are playing. The Force Feedback feature only works in games supporting Force Feedback. The game that I play the most, which has this feature, is the Interstate '76 game that came...
Pros: easy to install and use Cons: needs a firm surface
I bought this joystick as a present for my husband. I have never experienced anything like it. It came with Mech warrior 3, and is well worth the $125.00 cost. When you grasp the stick, you feel everything as if you are sitting in the cockpit. Whether...
I play Flight Simulator 98 a lot and I love flying the helicopter. I downloaded a lot more helicopters for Flight Simulator 98. With an ordinary joystick, you are not capable of doing things that you can do with the Microsoft Sidewinder Precision Pro...
