They also made a flight control stick that came with a limited addition patch and Ace Combat 5 for the PS2. I have a 65" HD 1080P and HDMI hook ups and I can't really tell that much of a difference from one to the other. I would advise getting the PS2 package (can find them on ebay now for $100) and get Ace Combat 4, 5, and Zero. There is the online aspect on the 360, but I wasn't really that impressed with that.
If you don't own a PS2 or are a die hard fan of the franchise like me you may want to pick it up. The only complaints I have on this stick is it looks crappy -white/green/with big colored xbox buttons wheras the PS2 one was black and looked just like a flight stick. The other thing is the construction doesn't seem to be as strong-there is a lot of creeking when you move the altitude stick.
THE BEST GAME EVER!!!!

I would have to say that this was one of Namcos finest games created. With the flight stick the realism will fly right past you, although, the flight stick does not have the looks it works extremely well. The flight stick is also compatible with pc games and the Blazing Angeles series. The game includes a wide variety of missions ranging from islands in the tropics to snowy regions near the poles. The game is also similar to the Ace Combat 5 for ps2 except this game was created with more missions and better graphics. I was very much please that I bought this game, and I guarantee that your $150 without tax will be well spent!

This limited edition bundle is simply great buy the game itself is awesome the graphics are mind blowing I have Panasonic 42 inch 1080p hdtv with HDMI connection to both my dvr system and xbox elite system the sound the graphics the story everything is top nosh it looks like high budget action movie during play .the flight stick is still pack because I had no trouble playing the game with wireless controller I use to play jet fighter 4 and 5 but this game sets the bar high way above the jet fighter series just a note to new players if you like to fly your aircraft from the inside (cockpit view)press the Right stick downwards on wireless controller.... in short it is a great buy I might use the sticks with my computer instead of xbox 360 well lets see
Incredible Graphics.... and a ton of crash bugs. Hold off a few weeks.

I've always been a huge Ace Combat fan, I think I probably played through Ace Combat 5 fifty times, so when this came out I was pretty excited. Sadly while what little of the game I've seen is incredible visually, it has some major bugs. Notably that it crashes every... 5-10 minutes. Typically I get maybe 5 minutes into the first mission, but I've had it glitch as early as the plane selection screen. On the whole pretty depressing. Now its possible I've gotten a bad disk, but judging by some reviews on other sites (IGN notably) there are others with the same issue.
I'd suggest waiting at least a few weeks to pick it up, otherwise your risking unplayability.
a must have for the X Box 360 collection

WOW this game is fantastic! The gameplay is wonderful and videos pull you into the storyline. It took me a bit to get use to the flight stick but OMG its a must have for this game. save your money and get this bundle, also came with a cool face for the 360. if you love to Ace Combat series i strongly recomend this one. The missions get really hard at times since there are sub missions and you will have to go back and re-fuel and ammo up. you can face up to 300 units on one mission. The online blew my mind, its so much fun. This game is the best so far for the Ace Combat series, I only hope Microsoft will release more games that i can use the stick on (Mech warrior, X Wing...)
Great Fun

Never had a flying game before. Mounted the 2 flightsticks on a piece of wood using the supplied suction cups. Works great. Hours of challenging fun and action. Each user can customize the controls to their own taste.

This was purchased for my son as a gift. He is 10 and a wiz with his X Box 360 games. This game is not playable for him. The tutorial does not EXPLAIN how to make manuevers, it just tells you to "Maintain level Flight". Okay, how do we do that? How about some on screen examples? He's 10, he's not going to read the manual. Ace Combat folks need to remember:

To the guy that says his 10 yr old cant play it but is a wiz on other games. Your kid must be retarded then, because this is a very easy game to play, its self explanatory, my 8 yr old sis can play call of duty 4, and she gets head shots!...

You'd think after you spent almost $[...] that they would give you some idea how to operate it. No instructions included except a little review on the box if you want to sit there with a box on your lap. What ever happened to giving you an operating manual or direction book with a product. I will never waste my money on something like this again. If I would have known there are no instructions, I wouldn't have bought it. Hope the manufacturers read these things and take note.
