works good

Pros
Ive had this since 2000. I don't understand the user reviews on this stick. Obviously need some computer lessons! Its fully supported in windows 7 and i had it working in 8. I also had no problems. i believe it was windows vista or xp it wasnt supported.
Cons
wasn't cheap. back in 2000 i paid around 99 bucks
Summary
good stick even if its old as dirt.. It just lacks the proper drivers so you need to use the generic drivers windows uses But who cares . it still works. since its also 13 years old and working. is a feat. I don't really see the need for sticks anymore. Just use a xbox controller or some type of good controller with joy pads and your set.
What are They thinking.

Pros
Do They think We can afford new equipment two or three times a year - like They can.?
Cons
NO SUPPORT.!
Summary
Well there go all them games and controller. Social Security don't let Me buy new equipment much or get out much, now there's even less to do to pass time just waiting to die.
It STINKS!

Pros
There are no pros. They will not support there own systems they design to make more money.
Cons
Microsoft built a Joystick that was really nice. Then it designed a new OS (Windows 7)and will not support my $79.00 Joystick. It would cost them to much time which equals money to fix the problem or come up with a workable solution. It's all about the dollars folks. They do not care about us small folk anymore! (Not that they did to begin with).
Summary
Throw out Windows 7. Go to Apple. They still care and don't screw over their customers. I plan on doing this as soon as money allows.
