Been using joystick/pedals combo for GP500 and SBK2000 games, but read that some of you are using game pads. Would this be a better option (particularly the Freestyle Pro with tilt sensor). Does it make it easier to steer the bike? Thanks PJ

Wheel is better when it's long fast sweepers where direction is critical. It may just be a time spent trying it but I don't find the Freestyle particularly sensitive for direction. Then on Motocross Madness the Freestyle is just THE best using button for throttle and brake ( been told be a MotoXer that there are only two positions for each when racing for real !!) and leaving front-back to control body position. The biggest problem I have is not being able to get my knee down to hold the bike on the balance point on tight fast corners :-) :-) Bad-Boy
