Title: Racing Wheel thread Post by: Chainclaw on September 06, 2008, 05:46:45 PM So I want a racing wheel. Seeing as they are expensive, and there are so many options, I can't just go to the store and buy the best racing wheel.
I want the wheel to work for the PS3, 360, and the PC (I think everything that works on the 360 works on the PC). The games I play are: Gran Turismo HD Concept (PS3) Gran Turismo 5 Prologue (PS3 - currently renting) Motorstorm (PS3) Ridge Racer 7 (PS3) Ridge Racer 6 (360) PGR3 (360) PGR4 (360) Burnout Revenge (360) I also have Excite Truck on the Wii, but I don't think you can really use a wheel for that game. Games I plan on picking up are: Burnout Paradise (PS3) maybe... Forza 2 (360) Sega Rally Revo (360) Grid (360) Dirt (360) some of the Need for Speed games (360) Stuntman Ignition (360) I don't have a coffee table, I do have a folding table I could throw a wheel on if needed. I wouldn't mind one of those weird wheel apparatuses if I had to get one. I am thinking $200 at most (at that price I'll probably wait until Feb to pick one up) The official 360 wheel is $100 and includes Forza 2... but that probably won't work on the PS3. What do you guys use?

I found the Logitech G25 (http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/265/3932&cl=us,en) that's compatible with quite a few PC, PS3 and PS2 games. There's also the Driving Force Pro (http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/265/3849&cl=us,en) which is only compatible with Playstation software but supports much more PS2 games than the G25. I'm not sure where else to look for wheels, I don't own one myself. Maybe Microsoft & Sony make it so that wheels are never compatible with both: forcing you to buy 2.
