I needed it for a flight sim, I just can tolerate those huge sticks, they're way too cumbersome and you can't use them unless you're sitting perfect posture in an office chair and desk, which I've never done using the computer. It's why all my stuff has to be mini and why I use a trackball, cause there's no room for a mouse or big keyboard, let alone some fully sized flight stick, when you're sitting in a big comfy chair.
I used an xbox controller on my pc for a while, which was really good for a lot of games, but not really for full flight sims because the joysticks are relatively minimally functional since it's so small, you don't have as much control as you do with a larger stick.
The good thing about these ch's is that they're still pretty big, and have about the same sized movement as you have with a big stick, you just don't have all that top heaviness.
