Amazon.com Product Description
Designed to suit any player and any joystick-oriented title, the versatile Cyborg 3D Gold USB joystick features both a customizable, ergonomic grip and fully programmable controls. Featuring four buttons, two command-doubling shift buttons, a rotary throttle wheel on the base, three fire buttons, and an eight-way point-of-view (or "hat") switch on the top of the control, the Cyborg boasts up to 24 programmable functions plus a trigger and push throttle. The included Saitek Gaming Extensions (SGE) software lets you quickly and easily assign button functions and also allows you to create specific profiles for different games, auto loading them into the joystick at the start of a game.
A built-in hex head wrench allows you to modify the head tilt, head roll, palm rest, and throttle for flexible left- or right-handed gameplay orientation. And the comfortable, rubberized palm rest, minimizing fatigue during prolonged play, can be raised or lowered to accommodate either small or large hands.
For flight sims, the precise 3-D twist function of the stick offers smooth, precise rudder control. And for driving games, in which the joystick is steadily pushed forward for acceleration, the stick's long-throw, spring-loaded tension and accurate electronics provide excellent tactile response.
Featuring easy-to-use USB plug-and-play connection, the Cyborg 3D Gold USB is compatible with both PC and Mac computers. It comes with a one-year warranty.

Oh, what a difference!
I've had my share of joysticks in the past, and have never really been satisfied with any of them. This is due, in part, to my being left handed and not wanting to 'stick with my right. The Cyborg is different. This is a joystick that is truly a joy to use. The most readily apparent feature of the Cyborg that sets it apart is the ability to adjust the various parts of the stick. Not only can you swap things around from right handed mode to left handed mode, but you can also adjust the depth and angle of the thumb triggers on the top of the stick. You wouldn't guess that this is a comfortable stick just by looking at it; it is very industrial looking. But I have not had any of my usual hand cramps or sore thumb joints using it. The buttons are arranged in such a way so as to make four of them easily accessible without adjusting your grip on the stick (trigger and three thumb buttons). You also have an 8 direction hat in easy reach. I find the buttons to have a nice amount of play (very little), though this is a personal preference, and they all have an audio and tactile response. One of the nicest features of the Cyborg is odd looking external spring at the base of the stick. This spring not only gives the joystick a nice amount of resistance to movement without making you really torque on it to get to the extreme angles, but it also keeps the stick perfectly centered when you aren't applying pressure. Every other joystick I have used relies on internal methods in the base of the unit for centering, and all of them inevitably fail, resulting in annoying drift. The only potential drawback to the Cyborg is that it isn't force feedback. That's great for me because I have found FF devices to be pretty silly, but some folks like them. For a sturdy, reliable, comfortable joystick, I have yet to find anything that comes close to the Cyborg.
Saitek JI3G Cyborg 3D Gold USB Joystick
This is maybe the best joystick I have ever owned. The 3D Rudder Twist,The 8 way hat switch,The ambidextrous design fit for left,right,and switch holders.The joystick also comes with a tool that is used for adjusting many parts of the joystick itself.This joystick has power and precision,two main "P's" reqired for a great joystick.Look how high the sales rank is for this joystick.To my opinion,this joystick could be better than Microsoft's Precision 2 joystick! The bad part may be that is is not force feedback which is alright with me since force does irritate my handling. The other problem is that I heard that there are some problems with loading the stick to the computer. This never happened to me due to the fact that my download was quick and easy. I think that problem only occurs to some people.Overall,this joystick is amazing,even having some extra downloads to the stick! As you have noticed Saitek joystick has a decent price for good quality stick. This is exceptional for MS Flight Simulator 2002.Finally, this stick comes with USB port.No joystick port? No problem.I highly recommend this stick to anybody who loves a quality joystick at a decent price.
Saitek 3D Gold USB Joystick
I am very happy with this joystick. It installed without any problems. Although I don't really care for the software game extensions. Anyway I have used this joystick with Star Wars Rogue Squadron 3D, Star Wars Episode 1 Racers (the pod racing), and Star Wars Battle for Naboo. In each case my scores inproved over those I could obtain with a Sidewinder pro force feedback stick. I thiink the USB connection has alot to do with the better response speed. I found the Saitek 3D Gold comfortable and very precise after calibration. I just ordered a second one. Amazon has it (...)! This is a bargin I highly recommend this deal. My system is a P4 1.5 ghz 128mb ram 32 mb video card. It lets me play the games fast and furious. I am not that great at games but this joystick has helped me play much better. I have far more 1st place wins with the pod racers than I though possible for me as well as more gold medals in Rogue Squadron 3D. I also recommend these games.
