: Here's a link to a picture of the Sony dual shock joystick controller:

Wow, I'd never seen one of those. I may buy it.

The only game I play is football. The player polygons are just much more responsive to analog control. The other guys in our league are getting quite good and I can't cut as quickly with a digital fight stick as they can with the small analog stick controllers that come as standard equipment with the playstations now. The one problem I've had with flight sticks is the throw is too long. I need immediate response. The time it takes to go from left to right could be 100 yards.

I didn't think it would be such a big deal since the four wires that go from the digital D-Pad to the PlayStation are the same four wires that go from the analog stick to the PlayStation. They just have a switch that allows you to choose one or the other.

Thanks, you guys have been very helpful.
