Thrustmaster's HOTAS Warthog Joystick Picks Your Pocket

We don't know what's more shocking, that people are still buying joysticks, or that Thrustmaster is charging $500 for its latest gaming peripherals. In case you though we inadvertently added and extra zero, we'll spell it -- Thrusmaster's HOTAS Warthog joystick costs FIVE HUNDRED dollars.

For that kind of scratch, we'd expect the Warthog to cook us breakfast and fetch the morning paper. Sadly it doesn't do either of those things, but it does come with 55 fully programmable buttons, 2 four-direction hat switches, and 19 action buttons, and other features of interest to flight sim fans.
