Summary: GREAT LOW-END JOYSTICK!
Review: I bought this joystick because it was the middle of the summer, I was low on cash, and I needed a new gamepad for my gameing comp. So I looked around, and after a while, once you strip off all the bells and whistles(Vibrating, Dual Analog Sticks, etc.) You eventually come to this one. I plugged it in. Set it up, and in a matter of seconds was blasting T.I.E. Fighters out of the sky with it. I wouldn't send mine back.

Summary: Awesome price, no hassles!
Review: This gamepad is a no-brainer. For under $10, you get a gamepad that you can just plug in, and it works, first try, with Windows XP... which is exactly what I wanted. No drivers, no hassles! The D-Pad seems much improved over previous versions, and is 3x better than the very-hard-to-use D-Pad on my (original) Wingman Rumblepad. It has 8 buttons that work when you press them. The overall size of the gamepad is a bit smaller than some of the other models, and it works perfectly for my 6-yr-old. The USB cable is a bit longer than the other gamepads I've used, which is a plus.

The only thing I see that could be improved is to include the 2 extra buttons (Start and Select), which would have made it exactly like the Gravis Gamepad Pro. Some games like to have to two extra buttons, but most will let you just use the computer keyboard for those features (pause the game, go back to the menu, etc.).

All in all, you can't lose with this gamepad... order 2 or 3 and get everyone in on the game!

Review: While others love Thrustmaster, I made the mistake of trying their low end model first. After returning it to COMPUSA for another cause it wouldn't connect via the USB, the second one wouldn't either. Needless to say this one doesn't work either. BAD BAD BAD WEBSITE SUPPORT TOO!!!
