    depends on how much money ya got...if thats not an issue got the microsoft force feeback joystick, or the logitech equivelant. it you have budget, well, then thats a dif story. I really love the force feedback though.

    If you aren't bothered about FF, I would recommend the Saitek Cyborg 3d range. Chunky stick, nice features, inexpensive.
    Go read my review of the gameport version in user reviews. Some guy also reviewed the USB version there.

    i got a MS Sidewinder 3D Pro a few years ago, and im very happy with it. i really like the rudder controls on the joystick handle itself (it twists around). this is a little older of a joystick and i doubt you could find it in a store easily, but you could get one off ebay really cheap.

    I've got the MS Sidewinder Precision Pro, the successor to the 3D pro. It looks like a FF Precision Pro, only not as big or heavy.The twisting grip as well as 4-way movement is nice, as well as the throttle wheel at the base. Plus, all buttons are programmable to suit your preferences. It's the only joystick I havent broken and can be found for around 50 bucks.
