I just ordered the Thrusmaster Hotas from Amazon for $30. I can't hardly go wrong at that price. It's supported by the upgrade and is the choice of this forum, at least prior to the update. I'm a little concerned about quality but it looks and sounds better (to at least several guys on this forum) than the Aviator. I like it cause it has a seperate throttle stick with the rudder inputs on front of the throttle to work with the fingers. It looks like you never take your hands off the sticks in combat. Hell, it's cheaper than a Sony controller! Looking forward to it!!

HANDS F***IN DOWN THE SAITEK X52 !!! Standard X52 or the X52 pro !!
It works Great. I have been using it for all my pc flight sims and on Ps3 BOP it works smooth as butter. The little analog stick on the throttle controls your look around view and it is perfectly under your left thumb at all times with your left hand on the throttle.
I recomend it to any one any time any place.

Damn. Now I here it! Hmmm. Send the Hostas back when it gets here? Sell it on the forum? Should I even open the box and try it out first? Shit.

Yes, I will be playing with you guys.
But my Brand new Bop ps3 disk is messed up and it won't let me do mission 4 , it just freezes my ps3, so I'm trying to figure out another way to get SIM unlocked. Any Ideas ? Does it unlock if I play through the arcade campaign ? Thats what I'm trying to do right now.
I wanted to play some onle Sim tonite ! Damn it !.

I called a couple game places to see if they had another copy because I was going to drop anoth $40 ! but they don't have it for the ps3, I'm going to check walmarts tommorow.

If it has a scratch go get a "disk doctor" and buff the disk.
The only way to unlock it is to complete the tutorials.

Hi,

I have the X52, but even with the patch, the game doesn't seem to recognise it. Setting the controller to any of the other sticks also seems to get no response from the X52. Any tricks to getting it to work?

Thanks!
