The Logitech Wingman Makes Games come alive. [Posted on 1999-07-14]
The force feedback is far better then any thing else I have ever tried. In "Need for Speed III" you feel every bump and curve on the road. The USB interface make setup a snap and the software installs in seconds. The price tag of $99 may seem high but you get your money's worth. It is very high quality. I "must have" for all gamers!
Teeth Rattler [Posted on 2000-01-07]
Having tried a few force feedback sticks, there is absolutely no doubt doubt in my mind that this as the pick of the crop. The steel cable design means every little movement is transmitted to your hand with precision, and the effect strength can be set fron subtle to wrist jarring. The lack of a twist action may upset flight-sim fans wanting easy rudder control, and there is no doubt that while incredibly stable, this stick is huge and needs some serious desk space, but if you've got the room it's worth it. The motors are almost silent, and with no cooling fan internally the stick is very refined and quiet until the action starts. The one weakness in my view in the omission of an on/off switch. Connecting via either USB or a free com port (the cable has bothe connectors on the end) it is easily set up ready for action. A real tooth rattling Goliath.
way better than microsoft [Posted on 2000-02-16]
i've tried a couple of things things before and Logitech proves, yet again, that they are the king of pointing devices. it's so much easier to setup, fits in your hands better, the buttons are better laid out and easier to configure. each button is clearly identified in the configuration window with an arrow; absolutely no guesswork involved. everything is customizable, including the amount of force the device gives back for the feedback. i'd give microsoft a C+ for their device while logitech clearly gets an A+.
