Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation Bundle (Includes Flightstick) (Xbox 360) Reviews
Of all the flight sim games this is absolutely the best. The action of the flight controller will have you doing barrel rolls in your sleep!!!! Definitely not easy to learn but once you do it is also challenging. Lots of action, plenty of targets to shoot and you better watch your butt, since you will be shot out of the sky if you dont. I have 14 different Xbox games and this is one of the best ever...If you are thinking of getting the game without the flight controller, forget about it, the controller is what makes the game really FLY......HAVE FUN!!!!!

Some of the reviews of the AC6 Flightstick Bundle seem to be only for the game itself. I reviewed the game itself separately. This review is for the flightstick bundle, which comes in the box displayed by amazon here.
I bought a used set that came complete with everything from the original purchase, box, cords, faceplate, etc. And, everything worked fine and as intended.
However, I found these controls to be not really much fun at all. My experience with them showed they were slow, sluggish, and difficult to be precise with. I went through AC6 entirely, on two different levels. The only way I could get anywhere beyond about the first 5 missions was to revert to the standard hand-held controller. With that, I could control the plane very precisely.
The flight stick is a great concept, but I feel it's actual performance is much below what I anticipated. It really boils down to being able to control the plane quickly and precisely, which just wouldn't happen with this flightstick for me. Others may have a completely different experience. Read the reviews here to gain an idea of what some gamers have to say about their flightstick.
No instructions come with the bundle, this is the way it came from the factory. There is a somewhat confusing schema on the side of the box which attempts to explain what the function of each button/movement will be. I also bought a game guide which devoted a page to labeling the buttons and trying to correlate them with what the buttons on the hand-held controller did. This helped, but some of it you really had to figure out by trial and error.
Again, some gamers perhaps have had a stellar experience with this Flightstick Bundle. I did not. My experience with the Ace Combat series includes all of them from Air Combat (the first one) through Ace Combat 6, including Ace Combat Zero. All completed at multiple levels. For whatever reason, I was never able to become good enough with the stick to even approach what I could do with the standard controller.

To the guy that says his 10 yr old cant play it but is a wiz on other games. Your kid must be retarded then, because this is a very easy game to play, its self explanatory, my 8 yr old sis can play call of duty 4, and she gets head shots!...
