Just keep in mind...

Though it is currently the best option on 360...


Most of the control options you see on the throttle side are dummies or duplicates.


Neither dial functions, there is little nub that is a duplicate d-pad, one of the switches on the thumb side is fake, another is a 3 way switch that toggles between Mic On-Off-On, and the index finger hat switch is all left stick click (regardless of the direction moved).


It's appearance definitely leads to believing that it is a much nicer controller than it actually is.

its for consoles , there would be no need to make the controller even more expensive

they are using the shell from saiteks old factory to produce them

the controller is GREAT for the consoles , but i agree MS should make a first party stick

I wasn't saying otherwise.

I have had mine since the day it came out with AC6, and it is definitely the best option on 360 currently.

It is just that one should be aware that its appearance is deceiving in representing what you are actually getting. I was actually a little bummed the day I got it, and I realized that half of the controls on the throttle were fake, gimped, or duplicate.

I most certainly would have still bought it knowing all that. It is just one of those things... Especially if someone is going to pay those ridiculous inflated prices currently, they should know that what they see isn't exactly representing what they get.

Hey other than Ace Combat 6, HAWX and this, are there any other games that support the Ace Edge on the 360?

Nope.

Ace Combat, HAWX, and this are indeed the only ones that support it.

Not really well.

It was made before MS made a flight stick standard, and as such is a bit unorthodox.


There are also the Blazing Angels games which do not work at all with the flight sticks.


AC6, HAWX, and IL-2 are the only post standards games, and they all do support it.

Now Now there are lots of arcade games that support it. I use it on most of them.
As I have posted before it also works really good on Raiden Aces.
