Saitek Cyborg X ps38 release date?
« on: December 12, 2008, 12:32:41 PM »
       Just a simple question..... can anyone tell me if they heard when the new Saitek Cyborg X ps38 joystick is finally due to be released? I heard Oct 31st then , Nov 27Th and now today DEC 12Th but nothing! Ive tried writing madcatz (saitek's) Representative in the US but I heard nothing back but ....Duh I dunno? I am intrested in buying one just to try it out it looks very intresting! If you haven't seen it check out www.saitek.com and look under PC gaming ...next cyborg range.... then look for cyborg x ps38.

any info thanx again Rain20

P.s. Its there 1st new controller in awhile its about freakin time!

I would think you would have better luck checking Saitcrap's website and forums for the information you seek.

I've only gone through one ST290 Pro (on my second one now). Think I spilled a little too much beer in the first one  :t

Took it out back, thrashed it, kept the joystick handle itself for spare buttons should the need arise. #2 has lasted a good 6-7 months so far with no issues. *knocks on wood*

Being that it's only a $20 stick, after #1 locked up on me, the beating it took afterward was more than compensation for having to drive 5 miles to Wal-Mart to get a replacement :)

No, it really is that much of a crap shoot, as far as how long they last. I've had about 5-6 of them, and the variance is pretty large. The worst lasted just a month and a half before flaking out, and the best one a year and a half. I think the X45 was the longest lasting one. They are simply too cheaply furnished, no matter how cleverly designed.
