Video Game Reviews of PlayStation 3 Logitech Driving Force GT Racing Wheel
Customer Review: perfect on GT5 ...but some other games beware..
Summary: 5 Stars
This thing deserves a 5 star rating just for GT5 alone..
i will warn you that MOST other driving games you WILL rather use a game pad...sorry to say ..
i think that for an amazing game like GT5 its totally worth spending 105 bux at amazon for this controller...or even 227 for the G25.
I did test this with Nascar 09 and have to say it ran VERY well also..
too bad i don't like nascar 09..but to each his/her own.
now on to the steering wheel.
its solid construction, densely built..tough durable plastic shell .. don't feel flimsy. The wheel seems rugged for gaming abuse, and is super comfortable to handle.
there was NO dead spots whatsoever. the clamp to my simple half inch shelf fit perfectly, it doesn't get loose or slide. i love the clamping on this thing despite what other reviews have said....it works for me and is mounted firmly...has not come loose.
nothing was needed out of the box with GT5..it was meant to be.
other DEMOS i tried it with.
1. GRID -tough to control needed adjustment but i gave up
2. GTI -potential there..but im still working on it..so far, no go
3. Motorstorm PR -wouldnt work at all..no controls..anyone have any luck with this amazing game and this steering wheel? please post i would love to know.
4. Wipeout HD , pedals wouldnt work with the game, the steering worked..but..i didnt even try to adjust anything..the lack of pedals working took away my ambition to play with it.
5. Pure- Good potential..but no pedals once again...i guess stick to gamepad
6. Nascar 09 - Worked VERY well..a pleasure to play actually..more fun than a gamepad
i strongly encourage anyone skeptical about this wheel and GT5...dont be..you have to feel it to believe it..you will not be able to go back to anyhting else. I just hope more games come out in time to utilize this wheel more...but if not..i think ill be happy with GT5 for the rest of my life hah.
