Ace Combat 6-Branded Ace-Edge Flightstick |
Namco Bandai is partnering with game controller maker Hori to offer a bundled package for the release of Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation. The bundle will include the game along with an Ace Combat 6 faceplate for the Xbox 360 and the Ace-Edge Flightstick accessory, which is the first flight simulator accessory made for the Xbox 360.
The Ace-Edge Flightstick controller consists of two pieces; a throttle controller and a separate flight stick. Both will be branded with the Ace Combat 6 design. This will be a limited edition bundle planned for this coming holiday season retailing for $149.99. Ace Combat 6 by itself is planned for release later this year for $59.99.

It’s too bad these people forgot to place instructions into the game manual as to how to get this game controller to interact with the xbox 360. There are NO instructions in the game manual or the controller’s (cheap knock off of the Saitek X45) manufacturer’s website as to how to get it to work with the game. I guess I was short sighted thinking the USB part of it would just work. WRONG! Now I have to wait for some minion as to what they just asked me, to get these controllers to work with the game.

Wow… This is the third site I’ve come across where this same guy is bashing the ACE-EDGE flight stick. I’ll say the same thing I did the other two places…
The flight stick worked fine for me right out of the box (instructions for connecting it are ON the box, btw). The instructions on the box are NOT difficult to follow. Plug the throttle cord into the flight stick controller, plug the USB plug into the 360, and turn the 360 on. It’s not rocket science. Not sure how you could miss it, MotorCitySarge. You seem like such a cool, level-headed individual.
lolololol
The flight stick works well. I’ve played through the single player mission on Normal and Expert now. The lack of an instruction manual was a little disappointing at first, but then I applied my brain to figuring out the problem. All the buttons are exactly where they should be (logically).
All in all, I’ve been extremely happy with the game and flight stick package.
Game rules….controller rules….me + Ace Combat 6 = win.
