So far the X52 looks the best as it's got the all around best setup for what I'm doing. The cyborg FLY 5 looks good too, but I'm not sure if it has quite the number of buttons I want.

I'd like to be able to do typical flight/maneuvers, etc. but also be able to program enough buttons that I can set the view to see my surroundings.

Can you control the way you look on autopilot with a joystick?

Hey everyone! Got IL-2 Sturmovik 1946 a few days ago on Steam only to find that the game is really, really hard to play without a joystick.

So my question is this: What joystick out there could i get that would be compatible with all of the IL-2 games and Microsoft Flight Simulator X? I'm a newbie simmer (mostly just for fun) but would be willing to expand to actual simming via Microsoft X someday. Isn't Saitek pretty good?

Preferably under $150...

Thanks, compatability issues scare me.

Well, recently my friend let me borrow her Sims 2 game. I popped it in only to be dismayed by a sign saying i couldn't install it. This happened at about 2% through the installation. Any help anyone?

Judging on the older version of the game it is a worthy buy. It has tons of content and multiple endings that you can play through. If you are a Final fantasy, medieval RPG, or just plain old game fan then this is definitely a good buy.

Ah lets see. There are two games i can reccomend since you seem into the Fantasy Genre, both are free to play and have tons of content. (also both can be subscribed too.) These games in order of my reccomendation are Runescape and Adventurequest. Runescape gives a large free to play experience that will give you months and months of entertainment if not a good year and half. You can fight things, train skills, talk to people online, and do a variety of other things. Adventurequest is a bit of a letdown. Yeah it has alot of content but last time i checked its not MMO and it kind of gets repetitive. All you really do is beat things. So, try them both out but i still reccomend Runescape because of the incredible content and it runs in your browser with java.

Actually it depends who you're talking to. A good 75% of this "community" are nerdy little kids and adults who have nothing better to do. The other 25% of us have lives, but like to build. I just thought it would be cool to see a revolving lego windmill :P

I have experimented with power functions slightly. A helicopter (coast gaurd) i bought had a power functions grapple in it. By the way can i run the motor continously?

Hey everyone. I was recently looking at the power functions sets to see if i could use them with any of my models. I have a great idea for a moving wind turbine. For those of you who know about the upcoming set with one, i'd like to ask something. If i buy a battery box and an M motor (power functions) how would i set them up with the turbine part? I know you have to plug the motor into the battery but is there like a switch or something on the back of the motor? I am so confused!

So i've been researching prototype and i think i get most of it. Zeus is Alex's codename and His girlfriend sold him out to Gentek. But i have a question? Who is Elizabeth Greene?

I'd capture small creatures using plastic red and white balls, then i'd get some sort of magical sword or something like that... steal the death note so no one could kill me then hide in my bathroom making facial expressions at the mirror :)
