Looking for a good combat flight sim that uses a control pad (PC)

Well, its that time of the year where retailers all over the nation are trying to pry money out of our hands and that means sales. I've been wanting a good combat flight simulator, but I don't know of any for the PC. I'm looking for one with good graphics, good controls, and action packed.

I really loved the Ace Combat 3: Shattered Skies (I think it was 3) by the way. Something like that. It doesn't have to have real aircraft, it could be space craft too.

[edit] By "good graphics" I don't mean "state of the art". Smooth and can be played at 1920x1200 resolution. Like 2009 graphics.

[edit2] by the way I don't like the look of older aircraft. The WW2 era craft...no.

Space Flight Sim


Freelancer? 2003 game still awesome as far as I can tell... dont know if it can live up to your standard

You can always search for mods (still has a decent size community)

Lock On: Modern Air Combat

It is very realistic though, if you are used to ace combat it will come as quite a shock.  It has very good graphics for such an old game, but then again it pretty much required a top of the line rig to run when it came out.

iL2-Sturmovik is by far the best combat sim i've played.  If you can get over your hate for WW2 era planes this one is very well worth a look

No good modern combat flightsims, the sturmovik series are the only really good ones
