Review on 🎮 Thrustmaster T.Flight HOTAS 4 - PS4 and PC Gaming Controller for Ultimate Flight Simulation Experience by Anthony Heinrichs

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Solid joystick, although not much compatibility.

First off, let me say that I'm a BIG fan of using the joystick in flying games. Why even make a flying game if you don't have that option (Star Wars Battlefront 2 *ahem*). So when I saw the official PS4 joystick, I was very excited. This is a really solid joystick for the price and I love the simplicity and functionality of its layout for use with PS4. However, there's a big problem with paying so much for a joystick that only works well with a very small selection of games. In fact, only FIVE are listed as compatible on the Thrustmaster website. Ace Combat 7 and Elite Dangerous are fun as hell, but where's the Star Wars and Battlefield compatibility? This thing has been around for a really long time, back in the console years, and I really feel like a few people dropped the ball (e.g. PlayStation, Thrustmaster, EA, etc.). Why even make this damn thing if nothing we want to play with it will work? All this to say that of course I bought it anyway and I really like the few things I can use it for, but due to the lack of compatibility I use it very rarely. here to be honest. I would give five stars too, if not for that reason. Finally, I like the ability to detach the joystick from the thruster, although both cables are actually a bit short and I had to buy a USB. an extension cable for the main cable to place it further away from my 65 inch big screen. Bottom line: if you really need a joystick for a few compatible games and have the money to blow this is a good controller. Тем не менее, не ожидайте от этой штуки большого применения, потому что я не предвижу, чтобы кто-то выпускал много контента до выхода PS5 в ближайшие пару лет, и эта штука, скорее всего, пойдет по пути Dodo, как и Версия для PS3 .Many Thanks!
