Published: September 28, 2004
Namco announced today it has partnered with Japanese-based accessory manufacturer Hori to deliver a limited edition Ace Combat 5: The Unsung War Flightstick 2 bundle set. To retail at $129.99, featured in the set is a copy of the high-flying game, the Flightstick 2 peripheral and an exclusive Wardog Squadron Jacket Patch.
"We have worked very closely with Hori to ensure that their quality peripheral truly enhances the Ace Combat 5 gameplay experience," explained Garry Cole, Executive Vice President at Namco Hometek Inc. "We are confident that this bundle set offers gamers the most complete and compelling Ace Combat experience ever."
Improving upon its original, the Flightstick 2 includes an analog throttle and an intuitive layout, ensuring players truly get the sensation of manning the cockpit.
"There are a lot of peripherals currently on the market, but a product from Hori is always unique and well-known for its quality," suggested Ray Hiyoshi at Hori (U.S.A.), Inc. "The Flightstick 2 was designed specifically with Ace Combat 5 in mind. The top flight simulation game in its genre deserves the best flightstick available -- there isn't a better combination out there for fans of flight combat games."
Only 20,000 of the units are expected to ship to Electronics Boutique and GameStop outlets on the launch date of October 26, so supplies are definitely limited. If you make the wise choice of pre-ordering the bundle set, you'll be treated to a special "Making Of" DVD, as well as a set of retailer exclusive patches.
