I just picked up a basically mint Gravis Black hawk digital today for two dollars, I mean no fading of the colors or anything it looks great.
Here are the picture of it and other things that people have doubted I have.

I think the thing is, we have a "I've recently bought this hardware" topic for cases like these 😉
And you picked all of these up for just $2?

Whats missing in your collections?

Yeah, after rainbows shot out of my ass and I had tea with nyan nyan cat... Okay, where do you suppose I get drivers for windows 98se that work with the game controller? I didn't get a cd with it.

Nyan cat suggests the Win98 CD.

Otherwise this is where the rainbow ends: ftp://ftp.mpoli.fi/pub/software/PROGRAMM/GENE … AL/JOYSDK11.ZIP

A digital joystick would be a terrible choice for a flight sim, but I dont think that Gravis Blackhawk is digital so your ok.

As far as something to play why not pick up Freespace 2 from gog.com? Get it? A "free" game.
