I really want the Thrustmaster for its hotas but i dont want it to stop me looking around as freely.. i think ill get a thrustmaster and see where i go from there.

It is an 8-way hat switch, but only four of the directions--left, right, up and down--work and when you move it left or right, is turns to 3 or 9 o'clock respectively and stops. It doesn't turn past 90 degrees.

ARGH!!! this stick palava is costing me buying this game.

i like the game, but the P-51 mission seems too hard. Sim is fun but nearly impossible to shoot fighters (or even see them) esp. without stick :/

now to the Stick, it seems Thrustmaster OWNS AV8R (or so it seems) and because i want a cheap stick seeing as i might get bored of this game (MW2 soon guys) so it came down to buying the game with the Thrustmaster X. or not buying it.

the HOTAS seems too much, and now i am wondering if the regular one will do the job and make it that much easier, and can anyone just tell me how it works without HOTAS, as in speed etc.?

thanks, Ghillie

Agreed. I am thinking about getting the t-X as well. I won't get bored of this game seeing that it has 50 missions.
