The joystick is a piece of plastic and after a few weeks of playing, it broke off. Is there any way I can fix it or get another gamepad with a jmore lasting joystick?

The gravis is a piece of junk... mine broke after about a month of play, I know own a Microsoft Sidewinder, and will probably have it for a long time, if you want a good one go with the sidewinder it is a little costly but it will last a long time

good luck

I've had 4 Gravis GRiP gamepads for 1.5 years and have not broken yet, although I wouldn't recommend buying them (they work ok but setting them up on a post w95 pc is a pain)(but doable). Mine are also plastic, but they're in perfect shape. What are you playing that makes you destroy your pads?

FYI: I was in a local Office Depot right before Christmas and they had a Gravis 15(maybe was 13) button digital joystick for $4.99. Did anyone else see this? Does anyone have this joystick? If it's still available I think I'll pick up one (you never know when my 8 year old Gravis Analog 4 button joystick will break).

What gamepads aren't made of plastic??

I'm looking at getting one of these Gravis Gamepad Pro controllers because it's shaped just like the Playstation controller. I don't own a Playstation, but I've played them and the controllers are great.

HES TALKING ABOUT A LITTLE PLASTIC SCREW ON JOYSTICK(ONLY ABOUT 1 INCH LONG) THAT SCREWS INTO THE CENTER OF THE PAD PORTION OF THE GAMEPAD.

I DONT USE THAT PART OF IT BECAUSE ITS KIND OF CHEESY BUT IM SURE YOU COULD CONTACT GRAVIS AND SEE IF THEY WILL SEND YOU A PLASTIC JOYSTICK THINGY.

OTHERWISE I CAN TRY AND FIND MINE AND SEND IT TO YOU BUT YOULL PROBABLY JUST BREAK IT AGAIN. :0)
