What do you guys use? what do you like?  
Even use them?

Mainly want them because I’ve been playing Mechwarrior again ;D

I only played MW2 and MW3… never played 4.  
but I’ve been playing it again, because… I really can’t think of anything else like it. and MW 5 is coming out! yay. (not sure if there are any fans here of the series or not, i just fucking love customizing mechs, lol)

and I need some pedals and a joystick so i can stop using the mouse/keyboard… because it sucks ballsacks.  
and the old joystick/pedals I used to use… are well, from the 90’s and not compatible ;p

Thinking about just going to wally world any buying whatever looks decent.  
with fucking rubber suction cups on the bottom.  
Always had one when i was a kid without suction cups, so it would slide like crazy.  
ugh.

Love mechwarrior!! I have 4 and the black night expansion. IMHO 3 was the best though as far as graphics and game details were concerned. As for a joystick I use the MS Sidewinder 2 with the twist “rudder” function. Buttons are programable as well and it comes with a built in throttle.
