Getting this game next week, i have both a 360 and just picked up a ps3 slim(with free Batman A.A.

.Anyway im gonna get a joy stick and my local options are the thrust master stick/throttle hotas combo (the cheapish plastic one) fir ps3 or the saitek aviator for 360.The thrustmaster costs about 50% more but comes with Tom clancys hawx.Is there any diff between versions of the game?Which joystick is better?

You have another thread for this issue:

Xbox 360 version is far superior to PS3 one, but maybe you can try another option for controls (online and voice communication is superb on 360, as you already must know):

(All of them are PC compatible)

I have the ps3 T master HOTAS also..very nice stick imo,but has some issues..for some the 4 way hatswitch is a biggie,but i find the rather large deadzone with the stick to be more of a problem..it's hard to make small adjustments,so you tend to overshoot your target...it gets a little better when you master the rudder ( i combine the twist with the rocker switch)

It takes some getting used to,but i really dig flying in cockpit view using my HOTAS!

I dunno about the wheelbrake function,hell, i don't even know whatever that means?
