Need a new Joystick:Suggestions?

Well I want to buy a new joystick this month. I want one that has Force Feedback. My two finalists are the Logitech Force 3D and the Microsoft Force Feedback 2. Any help picking would help a lot.

Really want to hear from people who have these controllers.

I need a new one too... mine broke.
I've asked at HLP but any comments here would be considered.

DO NOT BUY the Logitech. They are doing nice "normal" sticks (I have the Extreme Digital 3D, and it is fine), but they are bad at force feedback stuff.

I would definitely recommend you buy the Microsoft FF2. Solid. handy. More expensive, however...

Well, I personally detest Force Feedback, but I have both a Logitech Wingman Extreme and a Microsoft Sidewinder Precision Pro (1, not 2) and love them both, but would have to give the edge to the Precision Pro.

Force Feedback's a whole different story. Try these:

Microsoft, is hands down, the best maker of Force Feedback joysticks. With all of their hardware I've bought, I have been pleasantly pleased with its quality. If you want the best, then you should seriously go with the MS stuff (hardware wise).

Go and get yourself a Microsoft 3d Pro son. Too bad that's the only place you can get it as MS discontinuted it.

They also don't offer XP support for my Force Feedback Pro joystick, which kinda pisses me off. Been looking at the new sleek Feedback2.
