    Hi all .
    I am looking for a pc game. One i can use a joystick with.
    I have Dungeon Siege but i don't like it as you have to use the keyboard ( just cant be arsed to remember all the keys)
    what i would like is something i can fly and shoot down stuff!!
    or maybe a driving one.
    (Ms flight sim x is ok but slow)

    does this make sense?
    Any suggestions would be welcome.
    Thanks
    J

    Crimson Skies is an oldie, but a classic.

    Two old excellent games - X Wing Alliance (Just great for the Star Wars Fans :D) and IWar2 Edge of Chaos (Very long, great Joystick controls, action and resource management - get it!!!!)

    Else try Freelancer from Microsoft - Mouse only, but great story, endless hours, and good action - Like Elite - if you remember that.

    il2 1946 is simply a must for any gamer..the amount of Content is staggering.100's of flyable aircraft and you can adjust the realism to suit non-simmers too.

    Comanche 4. Get the demo here.

    Old chopper game, but very good. Graphics are pretty good, as well. You can play it without a joystick, but you'll need one to fully enjoy the game.
