You guys remember the old arcade Battlezone game by Atari, right? The one that came out in the early 80's that had the green objects on a black background? I have some questions for you about this game. I found a web site you can go to actually play this game and it's found here:

http://www.atari.com/arcade/battlezone

Is it be possible to use a joy stick to play this game? I just can't get the feel of it like I used to be able to play it using the stupid arrow keys on my keyboard. I don't currently own a joy stick or I'd plug it in and try it out for myself. Do any of you have a joystick you could try to use with this game?
 
I find it very stange that I can't get any input on this. I know there's people in this site who have joysticks. Are none of you actually willing to help?
 
I don't have a joystick but seeing as it's a flash game I'm thinking you are probably stuck using the arrow keys unless you can program the axes to emulate the arrow keys.
 
Usually your joystick would have to come with special software. I think most Logitech and Saitek ones do but I don't know if they support remapping an axis to a keypress.
