The Saitek P990 was developed from feed back from the users of previous Saitek products. The P990 is a dual analog joystick, complemented by an 8-way D-Pad, eight conveniently positioned buttons and four easy reach rapid-fire shoulder triggers for total control. The P990 also offers improved grip and back lit controls, making button selection easier in low light environments.
The four shoulder triggers and control layout make the P990 immediately familiar to casual gamers who come from a console gaming background, while the FPS button - a new development in Saitek game pad design – also gets them instantly into first-person gaming by loading a pre-programmed software profile to configure the pad controls.
Gamers no longer need to rely on a separate mouse (typically used for movement control or point-of-view control) to play their first person shooters or role playing games, as all mouse functionality is available using the pad controls.
The P990 has an RRP of £19.99 and is available from Amazon, Comet and the Saitek online store.
