Sidewinder FF 2 PC on joysticks and coathangers PC spake thusly: "I hope you’ll stay with me whilst I try and put this review into context for you, I think it’s important to include some background information for me to place force feed back in perspective. I’ve been a flight sim fan since my early teens - before Personal Computers were a reality. At that age I dabbled in war games with a mate using plastic scale model WWII fighters attached to poles by wire coat hangers. Always the patriot, I had the Boomerang .. which in my hands at least was a great mismatch against the Japanese Zero. I don’t even know the name of the ruleset we were using but we sure had fun. (Even though Darren the Zero pilot won most of the time). |
In the early 80’s I purchased my first computer (Apple II, clone) and my interest in ‘simming’ was renewed. Over the past 20 years I’ve been a keen computer gamer with a special place in my heart for ‘combat flight sims’. Even though I consider myself an enthusiast recently I was becoming bored with flight sims... yeah I know there are a lot of really good flight sims around, but nothing could hold my attention. Then something amazing happened - I got my hot hands on a Microsoft Sidewinder Force Feedback II joystick. |
