Does the throttle work with the GOG-released X-Wing Special Edition that includes the 1998 CD-ROM version?

Yes it does, but only on the 1998 one. I have only played around with it for 30 minutes or so, but out-of-the-box, the joystick can control the trigger, select object in reticule, select nearest starfighter. The throttle sets the speed but not on a gradient; it's full on, 2/3, 1/3, and 0. There are buttons that set each of these too. I don't think there was anything else. The 1993 game has fewer working controls: just steer, fire, roll, and select object in reticule. Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a way to customize the calibration.

Nevermind, I just found the replacement install cd. There are other games for this on the website too.

Works for me! I use it with a ThrustMaster X-Fighter.Edit (May 2015):However, because OS X provides no calibrator, any joystick becomes useless unless you virtualize Windows/Linux (which have calibrators) with something like Parallels/VMWare Fusion. If only the Rockfire unit came with installable drivers containing a calibrator like the Xbox 360 controller does. Unfortunately, they have not been maintaining/supporting the product at all.

Yes it will. You have to clear all the default joystick setting tho in the game. It's pretty straight forward.However, Ive noticed that in BF4 there is a button or two that seems to be bugged. I use the two buttons in front of the throttle to afterburner, and it keeps opening up a damn menu.In all honesty, it works wonders in BF3... But worst in BF4, They seem to have optimized it mainly for the game pad and mouse/keyboard... At least when flying a heli. "i'm not much of a jet guy."

I believe, once you buy the disc version, its as simple as installing it, along with steam. the pc edition I bought works just fine.

If you're talking about Elite Dangerous, yes it definitely does support! Other games that it surely supports are Rise of Flight and DCS

Sure, but it depends on which direction you wanna take your game, if you wanna keep it balanced I would get both ace expansions, if you wanna go imperial start adding interceptors and regular tie fighters, stay away of the advance, darth vaser is not so strong with the force. I you rather go rebel an extra x wing is the way to go, and I love to combo kyle katarn's moldy crow, the hwk, and an e wing or a b wing. If you find them at the right price get a millenium falcon and a slave 1 as these ad the challenge of taking down the big ship. Finally on FFG web site there is someone arguing the pros of using a wings. So while it is up to you I would say any of the above are cool, just avoid tie advance and y wings, I found those only slow my squads.

Yes it does. Just load up the virtual Wii menu, and it will show up in the "Launch Disc Software" area.

It works with the demo no problem!I don't own the full version of the game but in the demo the pedals work and the vibration on the wheel works it works with all need for speed games and gas guzzlers all in all a good wheel so far:)

Likely no. The joystick plugs in to the throttle with a PS/2 Connector, and the Throttle goes to the PC with USB. I haven't personally tried connecting the throttle to a PS/2 connector on my PC, but I don't imagine it'd work.Not sure why there's not a picture of the connectors on Amazon, but http://www.techwarelabs.com/reviews/peripherals/saitek_x52/images/Complete%20Contents%20saitek%20X52.jpg shows the connector types.

Sorry I do not know if Saitek controls work with X plane, perhaps there is info on the Saitek website, or you could use their contact ticket system to get and answer. Or go on AVSIM or flightsim.com forums and check out X-Plane forums and ask the question of others who might know.

Although I only use it for flight Sims I've used an older version for Nascar driving programs you just have to configure it in your settings

Yes it does and actually I have to disable it in X-Plane because it is just so much easier to use than my rudder pedals that I bought.

Yes it works perfectly. I've used it with flight simulator X and have had no problems. If you do happen to have any issues just calibrate the joystick when you plug it in, and that's it. I'm not sure how it compares to Windows 7 because I didn't use FSX with that operating system.

Will this control work on my new Windows 8 PC? I have several previous versions of Flight Simulator from 2000 to 1998 and both Combat Flight Simulators 1 and 2. Will they work as well?

That game doesn't support gamepads. You might be able to use a mod but I wouldn't recommend it. The snes controller is better for snes style games like super meat boy, binding of Isaac, etc. KOTOR would need a control stick at the very least. I'd recommend a good snes emulator like Zsnes, which it what I use it for, and it's awesome.
