| Post subject: | Best Racing Wheel For PC |
Hi people, just wondering if any of you know much about racing wheels for the PC? I'm considering the Driving force GT or the Thrustmaster F430 Force feedback wheel. Both are about the same price and both have good reviews. I think the Thrustmaster is slightly better in most reviews but my concern would be how up to date the drivers are and possible compatibility with newer games? My budget is upto £100. Anybody have any suggestions or thoughts? |

Hmmm for £100, not really sure. I know that the logitech G27? is very popular, but pricey too, however having used one myself on a friends pc, i would LOVE to have one. Sadly I have some hunk of junk that I got for just £25-30 from GAME in a sales. A "Thustmaster Ferrari GT Experience 3in1" PS2/PS3/PC compatible, wheel + pedals, vibration instead of force feedback... understandable then why I would love to get the G27, as I dont really recommend this thusmaster wheel I have, but it does the job. ;) |

The x360 wheel is about a hundred bucks, and works for PC. Racing wheels are a specialized thing , and you really get what you pay for... |

Do you mean the madcatz x360 wheel? I'm still pretty convinced by the look of the driving force gt... it's supposed to be similar feel as the g27... but without the clutch, lights and manual shift. |

Will the thrust master ones be as compatible with newer games as logitech? I just imagine better driver support from logitech. Also the 458 italia looks nice but no force feedback :-( |

I really like my Driving Force GT. I like the sequential gear shifter because in rally games, I can use the steering wheel mounted paddle shifters for gear changes and then use the sequential gear shifter as a handbrake, so you pull it for handbrake like in real rally cars. It's the small things that keep me happy. |
