"The Cruiser has long been a favourite of mine. These

days, the stick has metamor- phosed from its sleek matt black begmnings into a multi- coloured machine which boldly mixes pinks, blues and greens in a tasteful display of overstatement . The basic stick is still very much intact . though, and offers an easy-to-grasp handle coupled with solid construc- tion and a special twist lock at its base which offers three dif- ferent res i stances : loose. medium and stiff . This is prob- ably the stick ' s best feature . allowing you to alter the resis- tance to suit the type of game you're playing. For instance. if you fancy a game of Speedball 2. a stiff setting will allow you to turn your players on the spot. while flight sims are best played with the joystick set to a loose setting , allow i ng for gradual movement rather then short. stacatto bursts. The lead is an acceptable f i ve footer and the base of the machine fits snugly in the palm of the hand. There are also four suction cups at the base of the stick to help affix i t to your table-top if you should so require . Two m i croswitch fire-buttons and directional control prov i de the ic i ng on the cake ." 4/5
