I've been able to use my BK Gamer for a couple days now and wow, what an experience. When I first got it going I thought this is cool if not a little underwhelming. I was thinking about it too much instead of just racing and taking in the feedback. It is such a cool and new experience to feel the rumble strips, the change in road surface entering the carousel at Nordschleife, the rumble of the engine and change of gears, and the jarring impact of making contact with another car. I can't even imagine how awesome multiple buttkickers or some of the setups I've read about feel. After a while it is just a part of the experience. What I like to do is drive with it on and then just turn it off mid race for a few seconds and feel the difference. I think the closest comparison would be turning off FFB on your wheel mid-race and feeling the difference. It makes you wonder how you did it before and if you can race again without it. If anyone is on the fence or been thinking about getting one then do it. I have the entry level beginner set up and it is a cool cool experience.

You should also give it a try with some of your favorite music. You might find your sitting in a new spot to listen to your music. :)
 
I tried to do some HUD off cockpit racing in 3D with the buttkicker tonight and GT5 wouldn't let me turn on the 3D. If I clicked on 3D in the options it just buzzed at me. Are the two incompatible?
