    Nice review & I really like the "this card = this quality" idea. :clap: :clap: :clap:

    :clap: :clap: :clap: also for the modding option

    Ah, the nostalgia of the original Wing Commander (sadly, while the game was ground breaking, the movie looked to me like a re-hash of old WW2 stuff).

    What joystick are you using?


    @ $49.50 Canadian it's not exactly a bargain so I think I'll look for a few more reviews


    :hehe: :hehe: :hehe: ROFLMAO @ last bit

    The dual side mounted sticks (SR22) look odd since one for righties & the other for lefties - old style sticks look like a better idea to me. (Although at first glance I thought it was 2 sticks for one person & thought that was cool)

    Yep, found joysticks @ Logitech too (though the link to game controllers had a pic of a steering wheel). Being a lefty I like my Saitek Cyborg evo, but sadly it has gotten too little use lately.

    actually i think the perspective screws that up a bit, but it kind of looks to me as if that thing could be in the middle

    Although i'm not an expert on it ;)

    It looks promising at least. I just ordered a new joystick of ebay becuase mines an old serial port and my mobo doesnt have a home for it anymore *sniff* anyway i brought it to play tachyon: the fringe, i love that game and thought i could do with playing it again, i dont care about the graphics its just good fun, much like this game sounds.

    In the review it said that joystick support was limited, any ideas which ones are supported?

    Scan have started selling a usb version of the old "Kempston" joystick. I remember these from my old speccy...

    I've got 4 MS sidewinder pads/sticks:
    1x sidewinder FF2
    1x sidewinder precision pro
    1x sidewinder pad
    1x sidewinder dual strike (dire)

    and there's always adapters for ps2 pads (or even a 360 (wired) pad. There should also be an adapter soon for the wireless pads)

    looks like someone likes MS controllers. Have they ever stuck to any hardware other than mice @ keyboards?

    ROFL@ Kempston stick. Now to find one a doze nue Atari 2600s

    If the Saitek sticks work well in this game I might be more interested. (haven't used it since Crimson Skies)
