So I got this little guy from my brother for Christmas to presumably play GT6 with. I don't have a Move so I just figured I'd use my DS3 with it, as it says it supports both Move and DualShock. It seems pretty clear to me that it's intended to be used with the motion sensing tilt steering in the DS3 and presumably in the Move, 'cause there's no wires or ports or anything to hook it up to the PS3. Right on the box it says "Perfect for Gran Turismo 5 and all other racing games!", but in a thorough examination of GT6's option menus I can't find a tilt steering option anywhere so I'm assuming GT6 doesn't have that functionality. But before I write it off completely (or just hope one of my other racing games (Burnouts, Need for Speeds...) has that functionality), I figured I'd ask GTPlanet if GT6 has tilt functionality tucked away somewhere for me to use this thing with. So: does it? And if it doesn't, would it work with a Move?

Disclaimer: yes, I did multiple searches before posting, and no, "buy a G27 instead" is not a response I will consider. I don't have a full size wheel because I don't have room for one (nor the willingness to plop $300 on one).
 
GT5 certainly did not have that functionality... You couldn't use the sixaxis to control it like in Motorstorm/WipEout. Maybe there's a manual that came with it that might explain things?

Fair enough!

None of the documentation that comes with it explains anything further than how to put the controller inside the wheel.

Well I don't see how it can say it's perfect for GT5 unless it means with the move controller. GT5 did have move support but not sixaxis support. Sorry, sounds like a misleading product description.

It seems to be mostly focused on the Move and not the DS3 (even though it says it works with both and was clearly designed with the DS3 also in mind because mine slots right in), so that would be a fair assumption. I wonder if GT6 has Move support?
