Default Help please

Hi folks, I need a little help, because I have become addicted to steam sales (and gog) I have accumulated lots of titles of classic strategy and sims (for peanuts I may add), most of which I still havn't learnt how to play properly.

Now someone kindly posted that gog had a stack of flight sim titles in a sale and I just couldn't resist, Il2 1946, B17 mighty 8th and others incl helos, all sitting in my account to download, but the problem is I dont own a joystick, so I searched the forum and have decided from reviews and budget that Saitek Cyborg Evo Force Joystick is the one for me, BUT I cannot find anyone stocking it or for sale anywhere, I'm UK based so if anyone has any ideas or know where I could obtain one please let me know so I can blunder, crash and burn in style.

Thanks Bert.

That is a discontinued model, I fear.

Only chance is second hand, possibly.

See here: It's German ebay, but the offer comes from the UK, and you should be able to find it on English ebay as well. 14.xx pounds at the time of typing this.

Electric and computer components I would only consider 2nd hand if the price is really low and so is the risk of financial loss in case there are technical problems.

Hi skybird, thanks for the reply, I had already mailed that seller to enquire if it was the force model but it is not he responded by telling me it was the ps24 model and from my limited knowledge the force was ps28 and had gold brushed metal trim as opposed to brushed silver non force.
My search continues
