I'm in WA and I've been told today, so fingers crossed!!! (I doubt it though, since it's Monday, not new game day).

Melbourne here,

I'm also going to get it, once i work out which Flight Stick works best ><

My old HOTAS in the day was a TM Cougar, game port + serial.

The new one is usb & looks good, still metal construction & a solid feel. But from what i have read, the hat switch isnt giving the intended views in Sim mode.

I dont really care for arcade mode, so i will hold off a bit i think until theres some more stick reviews in.

Irishmandkg did recommend a thrustmaster (US$30) from http://www.amazon.com/gp/search/ref=...qid=1252290377

But im not sure if he is playing Sim or Arcade ><

If you're on the 360 I'd recommend the Aviator 2. There's no problem with free look and the rudder works just fine, not on or off as reported elsewhere (maybe that was the Aviator 3 or the PS3). There's a pretty big deadzone so you need to fiddle with some sensitivity settings to make it easier to make fine adjustments, but I think that's the same with all sticks (and the pad) on the 360.


Just curious, are most of the Aussies here veterans or noobs (like me)?

Hey, i'm a total noob. Not really into games anymore (play a bit of Halo with mates etc) but love planes so am dead keen to get this game.

As for Aussies and Kiwi's - in peace time we are rivals. When we have a common enemy though we are the best of friends.

I'll head to JBHIFI again in my lunchbreak today to see if it has arrived...

Got mine from Game Kingsway, had 3 XBOX360 copies on the shelf, and one went while I was buying mine!

They pre-sold about 5 of them, hope it does well!
