Gravis G10171B Blackhawk Digital Joystick for Windows

Summary: Most comfortable!
Review: The Blackhawk joysticks are the most comfortable sticks in a persons' hand. The right-side of the joystick has a molded piece of plastic that cradles your hand. All the other sticks have some sort of hand support but the Blackhawk has the best. You may want your fancy buttons and triggers but the question you must ask is "Do I want fancy buttons and hand cramping or do i want a joystick that feels like it's made for my hand?" Go Gravis Blackhawk!!!

Summary: Excellant Joystick
Review: This is an excellant joystick for the price. It is heavy at five lbs. with a wide base making it very stable. The handgrip is very comfortable and the buttons are well placed. It has worked with every game I have played. The only drawback is the software. It allows you to preset your buttons for every game you play and to save the settings. However it is very complicated and will take some time to figure out. It doesn't twist for rudder control, but I never seen one that did at this price. It has serial and USB connections so thats not a problem either. You can't do any better for the price!

Summary: Murder to install on windows ME
Review: Tried to install this joystick on my Dell 1gig computer and with all instructions from Gravis, Dell and Microsoft web sites the joystick would not install with windows ME, even with the Gravis patch. Tried again on a new HP computer, it would not install.
