Good Cheap Joystick

If you want/need a joystick for your gaming needs, this joystick will be sufficient enough for those that don't have a lot of money to spend. A lot of buttons for configuration, great feel, very responsive. I play war thunder on this joystick and although it took me a while to set up the buttons/setting, it was well worth it knowing i can play with how i want the joystick to feel while flying the plane.

Good beginner joystick, good price. Buttons on base are awkwardly placed, would have been better if placed on the front

Your concise review of the Logitech Extreme 3D Pro Gaming Joystick accurately captures its dual nature. It's clearly an excellent entry-level option due to its affordable price, making it accessible for new users. However, you've identified a key ergonomic flaw: the inconvenient placement of the base buttons, suggesting a front-facing design would significantly improve usability during gameplay. This highlights a common design challenge in balancing cost with intuitive control.

This joystick is a overall four star but for the cost it's nearly a five star. The quality and feel is simple plastic but it works and it works good. I purchased a second one because it's very good (not great) and I want to have a backup just in case something happens and because it seems like even joysticks are having a shortage.

However, it's apparent that my teenage son has no clue how to work it or the great features within games where you can select the function for each button and switches. He used it for an aircraft simulator, I used it to hunt down and destroy his friends in War Hammer. If you love a good dogfight, you'll enjoy this joystick.

I got nostalgic and snagged a couple of the old Star Wars flight simulators (X-Wing vs TIE Fighter and X-Wing Alliance) and needed a joystick so I could game like it was 1999 again. For $25, this sucker is more than accurate enough with enough function buttons for what I need in the games (several of the controls are on the keyboard anyway, there's waaaaaay too many to put on ANY lone joystick). The trigger is nice and responsive. Suits my needs just great. It doesn't feel as "premium" as more expensive joysticks, but seriously: it's $25. Great value.

This used to be a good joystick for a starter. very inexpensive. However, if you place something like star citizen, I would suggest looking into VKB.

A Classic, Just The Way I Remembered It

Back in my gaming heyday I wore out several Logitech joysticks from constant playing of the X-Wing and Tie-Fighter games, as well as flight sims from B-17 Flying Fortress to Falcon 4.0. With the reemergence of some new space sims and the rediscovery of the Star Wars games, I'm trying to jump back in the saddle and what better joystick to use than the tried and true 3D Pro. Even back in my prime I preferred the simplicity of these type of joysticks over the complexity of a HOTAS system. I had buddies that had virtual cockpits in their rooms but then, they were training to actually be USAF pilots while my eyes destined me to flying a desk (actually a nuclear missile, but then later a desk).
This joystick is just as good as I remembered it and it work great with all the modern games. I will say though that while several on-line forums said that this joystick works with Macs, it does but intermittently and not with anywhere near full functionality. Also, some of the older games such as Tie-Fighter will not map to these buttons. I'm sure that there is some software workaround for that but I'm not too worried. It works great with my laptop and the games I have loaded on it.

Bought this mainly to play Star Wars Squadrons in VR. Game changing experience switching from the Xbox controller to using this flight stick. So much more fun. Flight stick seems very responsive. I was very surprised considering the affordable price tag.

If you play any game that has a jet or helicopter, such as Battlefield 3/4 then this is a must have. It is so much better to fly jets with this versus using the keyboard and mouse.
Setup was easy, I had my controller configured in game and ready to go in about 10 minutes or less.

I bought this to play some old flight sim games that I had.
It worked perfectly, as well as I’d expected it to. The weight is good, the motion is fluid, and it’s given me a couple of years of use with no issues.
There are a lot of controls on it, and all work exactly as I’d hoped. Great value.

Bought this for my boyfriend and he absolutely loves it. He uses this for some simulation airplane game. It does take a bit to get use to but once you got it it is easy to use.
