According to an MSNBC article I read yesterday, Ace Combat fans are what appear to be a part of a cult, called the Ace Combat Cult.
'Given the popularity of war games (such as the just-released blockbuster "Halo 3"), you'd think there would be plenty of aerial combat simulators available. But the subgenre has never really caught on among console gamers, with the best-known franchise, Namco Bandai's "Ace Combat," playing to a rabid cult rather than a mass audience.' Ok, they never call us the ACC, but you get the idea. Well, being a part of the largest AC forum this side of Namco, we picked it up and ran with it. And thus we are a cult now.
The basic system thus follows:
Namco - The Father
Project Aces - The Son
Xbox - The Spirit
F22_Fan - The prophet
The Mods - The Apostles
The Members - Disciples
And we even have several passages,
A Reading From the Book of Sky-Eye, a Letter to the Erusians.
And Sky-eye said unto those in the village of Erusia. "My fellow Useans, Repent, for the mission of Mobius 1 is upon us. His teaching taught of brutal destruction against those that would attack without reason. Your False Prophet, Yellow 13 is a Golden Calf, and if you do not embrace the teaching of Mobius 1, you will be set free into the sky, no metal shall rain on your children, no missiles to do the work of the Lords Child." And with that, Skyeye departed from the land and assended to his place beside Mobius 1, and their mission was spread for all to hear.

A reading from the Book of Wardog.
And the 4 Horsemen of the Razgriz came unto the village and destroyed it and reaped of its harvest. The Prophet had called that those that would go against the Will of Osea would fall, and the Demons did the work of the Prophet. As it was foretold, no man would make it out of alive, for they were destined to fall to the Demons below.
And when the work was done, the Demons solemnly returned to await their masters bidding.
