Flight Simulators

Finding the best gaming accessories for you

You can add new dimensions to your PC gaming experience when you choose from a variety of gaming accessories and peripherals suitable for desktop gaming computers and gaming laptops. Gaming headsets are designed to surround you in audio and cancel out background noise, helping you focus on the game. And if you want to be able to move about freely in your gaming chair, consider a pair of wireless PC gaming headphones that don’t keep you tethered to your computer.

A durable gaming keyboard aids in accuracy and speed with anti-ghosting technology and macro keys that allow for pre-set keyboard shortcuts. For even more advanced features that allow for intuitive gaming, a mechanical gaming keyboard has programmable switches and visually stimulating colors to match the action on the screen. Mouse sensitivity is also crucial — the higher the DPI rating of a mouse, the more sensitive it is. When it comes to this key gaming peripheral, you  might consider a Wireless gaming mouse that lets you be more flexible with your movements which leads to improved accuracy and success.

These days, virtual reality is the new frontier, and it is a rapidly expanding field for gaming and visual storytelling. You can take your gaming experience to another level entirely when you choose to try out a VR gaming headset.

What do you need to play Aces High?

The bare minimum you need to play our combat flight simulator are a keyboard, mouse and joystick.

Would you like to enhance your play? We recommend an Oculus Rift and Touch Controllers1, HTC Vive1, XBox Controller, microphone, headset.

How about all the rest of that stuff?

If you have the money of course, add to your stockpile of equipment. The more the merrier your gaming experience will be. Mind you, some of this stuff is expensive. That is why our flight simulator can be played, and greatly enjoyed, with only a joystick but, for sure, the game will be more exciting, if that’s even possible, with the newest gaming accessories now being sold, and some of these items can increase your response times by fractions of seconds, which might just be the difference between flying the skies in a mission and crashing shortly after take-off.

Do we have any recommendations?

Honestly, no! It would be nice if we could give you some insider information known only to us, the game designers, but in truth we all use a variety of gaming accessories. Through a process called trial and error, we have found which accessories work best for us, and that is the approach we strongly recommend for you to follow.

A final word about Aces High.

Hey, we probably shouldn’t say this, but Amazon has free returns for Prime members. It would be a great way to test some accessories without committing money to them until you’ve tried and approved of them. And our free two-week download of Aces High means you can test the game and the accessories, basically for free, for a full two weeks.

How great is that?

Aces High, the king of the combat flight simulators, on top since 2000.
