I would like to buy a racing wheel and sofware. I've read some posts on various products, but I just wanted some opinions before I buy. I was considering the Microsoft package (not the force feedback), but I'm still undecided on the software. What racing games are recommended? What wheel/pedals are recommended? Thanks in advance!

 

Personally I'm a console fan. I like my games in my lounge room and my work in my office.

Before I took delivery of my S I was pleased to find that Gran Tourismo 2 on PLayStation has an S2000 option so I snapped it up and did all my practice in the virtual world.

Andf yes, I do have the steering wheel and pedals.

 

I'm a computer geek. No gamming console as yet. I'd still like opinions on computer games and steering wheel/pedal accessories. Which steering wheel/pedal unit do you use on your playstation? Maybe they make a PC compatable version. What are the likes/dislikes?

 

Get the MS Force Feedback or the Logitech Force Feedback. It doesn't work in all games and some games it doesn't work as strong as others, but its worth it. The Need For Speed: Porche Unleashed is a good example of the FF working great. I've heard of the Guillemot which is also a FF, and is branded 'Ferrari' all over it. I do not know much about it, but I just prefer the MS one because of the amount of buttons it has. (left paddal, right paddal, three buttons on the left, three on the right and of course the pedals themselves).

 

p.s. - want to know where to get the best deal: pricewatch.com - I found the Ferrari wheel for 104 there.
