I've had the game for about two weeks and I'm wondering which joystick I should buy for the XBox 360? I know there is the Ace Combat 6 Joystick, but its pretty expensive. So what do you all recommend?

i managed to pick up the 2-piece ace combat stick for 30 bucks and its pretty nice. Its the only one i've tried so its all i can recommend. I tried playing with the 360 controller and it just didnt work for me, so i'd def. recommend picking up some kind of flight-stick
good luck

Don't get scared by the $299 buy it now prices! If you do some hunting, you can routinely get in on auctions that will end around $100, you also might get lucky and get it for a lot less.
If $100 seems like a little much then go for the Saitek stick. A lot of people use them and are pretty happy with em. The truth about the sticks is that the Ace Edge is really nice, but you still have a dead zone on both, so if you can get an Ace Edge at a good price then do it, but IMO don't spend gobs for something that still has a deadzone.

I have purchased 2 of the Xbox 360 Ace Combat 6 Joysticks off Ebay and have had the same problem with both of them . . . .they both pull to the right. Other than that the controller works great. It pulls to the right on Hawk etc. Anyone know of a fix????

I own both the saitek stick and the ace edge stick. the ace edge stick is without question the better stick and I recommend it highly.
My Saitek AV8R also has a 'lean'. Unfortunately, there is no software calibaration as for the PC. I took some measurements of the Sticks pot values across the centre point and they are not equal. I will be looking at the possibilties of calibrating the stick itself some time shortly. Also, from what I have read, a spinning propellor exerts a force that will give the aircaft a tendency to roll so it may not be an issue with your stick (if that is correct).
