TrackIR5 and Arma2 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9wXx3vMy_AQ&fmt=22)
Well the game looks pretty good but the TrackIR5 looks amazing, I can't even put into words how useful that would be in just about every FPS game. Not to mention flight sims that would be crazy and even Racing games that would be very cool.

I wouldn't use this for most FPS. This is something more beneficial in realistic simulators, like Insurgency or America's Army. Other FPS, like Quake or Unreal are so fast past that strafing and just aiming to the side seem easier and more efficient. Though, I can see why the flight sim community loves this technology.

TrackIP is big in the flight sim and racing community and has been for years. Some recent and future FPS's will be using this too.
TrackIR is on my list for purchase though I just did purchase a yoke and throttle cluster along with a flight stick (this covers both FS and iL2, LoMac and Falcon 4.0 for me).

whiteknight this might be of interest to you since well as far as I can tell the Hawx community is a fail right now.

I am well aware of Rise of Flight and is something I look forward to.

yeah pretty much decided I'm going to play, just need to add a gig of ram and I'm all set. The Reqs are huge for it.

My husband and I were freaking out the other day over the trailer for Arma2. I love BF style games and this looks just like it. I'm pretty excited.

Did you check out the other link I posted? Not a lot of people like flight sims but that one is second to none as far as I've seen.

Yeah, it looks kickass... My husband about pooped himself last night when I showed him the Track IR5. He's a huge flight sim fan... he even went and looked up all the games that it's compatable with.
Apparently it does work with a few of the games he has. Now he wants me to get him this for Fathers day... LOL!

yeah I'm seriously considering getting it as well, every few months I take stock of my PC gaming supplies/computer needs and right now I'm stumped on what I would want. So that might be it cause I can't think of anything else.
