Hi all,

I like cars, i am not going to lie here.
I like bikes, pretty much everything with an engine.
I like things without engine too, that can surf, fly, ride, spin, jump, glide, slide, turn, grind, fall and explode sometimes.

i am also a bit of tec fanboy, and to support my addiction i own a few stuff, by order of personal appreciation of the moment:
-iphone4
-Macbookpro 17"
-Gaming PC (not too fancy Intel Dual Core 2.66Ghz with Ati HD4850)
-PS3 (GT "enfin" In da House) + Logitech G25 + Playseat
-Xbox 360 (just bought it and if i could play Forza with my G25, i would play Forza...)
-Wii
-PSP
...

My taste in music (irrelevant 💡 maybe another time)

My reason for joining in Gtplanet, my taste for driving IRL=led to> Home personal "safe" driving simulator. I love it. Playing GT on my PS3 with surround sound system is always a great pleasure. The Logitech G25 never disappointed me...until i bought an xbox... the playseat from "playseat" is just perfect, but the tag "Forza" makes me :crazy:

If only i could play with my Logitech G25 with Xbox games, i do not want to buy a second play seat, can't afford it and one takes already enough space...if only i could play it with all platforms i eventually might even consider buying a second one for multiplayer but not under the current conditions.

I recently spotted the XCM adapter, i wish could maybe make my dreams come true, see the new product announce, XCM F-1 converter:
http://www.xcm.cc/
http://www.xcm.cc/f1_converter.htm
Is it a fake? i do not think so. But will it be as great as i hope, i don't think.
On the product description, amongst other things it says "Supports Rumble".
I have just emailed the support contact to know more about this "Rumble" function. I will keep you updated on the oncomings.
I am fully aware of the fact that PS3 and Xbox force feedback rendering is totally different, but i really hope for a miracle. If the XCM team managed to ninja hack the input/output of both systems and reverse engineer the coding to put the decoding in Chinese chips and enable to transfer in real-time the information...""""dreaming"""""...(ninja jumping shuriken bad ass style storming in my leaving room XCM F-1 in his hand) making it possible...""""dreaming deep"...to make Forza working flawlessly with my driving wheel, helmet and gloves on i take him (the ninja) in a ferocious virtual driving battle to the limit of virtual rubber grip...""""Waking Up""""Damn expectations, Wait and see, if it enables some sort of half ffb rendering in more or less real time i will definitely buy it.

FYI my profile:
-25years
-leaving France, small town called "Plaisir" (can be literally translated to "pleasure":dunce:)
-sorry for my french...:sly:...just kiddin', fill free to correct me when i am wrong

"i am a nice frog, not a troll":scared:

I will be spending some times on the forums, so see you there :)

Thank you for reading.
Have a nice day.
