I'm looking for a cheap but decent one to use for these on my laptop. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Just bought this guy for Elite: Dangerous

Also, if you are into Star Wars stuff... you should really try out Elite: Dangerous, it's a Space Flight / Fight sim type thing and it's really really fun

Oh boy. That looks awesome. My computer could never run it. My computer pretty much can't run anything new these days minus a few of the strategy games I play that are less graphically challenged. But when I ever get a new computer, that's a for sure get. Thanks!

All these space sim threads have me itching to buy one... I am confused by Star Citizen, so Elite is in the lead

When I get my new pc, I'm going to take my old one and reinstall xp so I can play xwing, tie fighter, and xwing alliance on it.

No need (unless you don't want to pay)

absolutely fantastic, you can get on and cruise through galaxies at warp speed, jump out of warp speed to look for resources, can team up with frans to get bounties, or even go after bounties on your own... the game is massive, and it's freakishly fun. I might never look up for air

And I'm guessing the flight stick makes it even more worthwile?

really depends on your play style - my friend swears by the keyboard and mouse, and I'm more of a joystick person who loves the realism and ability to fine tune movement with the joystick.

It's really really fun either way, I've had friends use a controller, keyboard and mouse, and joystick, and they say the game is a blast in all forms.
