That really is not good tom.
I guess you could pick up the xbox1 or other controler but still.
I suspect from what I have seen at computer shops that for the most part bar consoles, a lot of stuff is full blown sticks now.
And a lot of that is specialised for things like flight or racing.
There are some  general purpose sticks but that is becomming less now.

Hi Steve,

Well, I have been looking into this issue myself, and unfortunately
most manufacturers are no longer producing game pads for the PC. Your
best bet is to get an XBox 360 controller from Microsoft with a PC
adapter if you care about Windows 7 and Windows 8 compatibility. For
some reason Logitech, Philips, and others are still making controllers
but not 64-bit drivers for newer PCs. Meaning if you get a new
Logitech controller and you have a 64-bit PC you have to depend on the
generic Microsoft drivers which may not fully support the controller
such as force feedback and some programmable buttons etc.

Cheers!
