For all you that wanted a new microsoft wheel...

Makes sense that Mad Catz wheel looks the way it does. It's clearly a Saitek design. Their PC racing wheels looked very similar.

At least this MadCatz wheel looks like a wheel.

That's cool and all but using the pedals looks like they would be at an uncomfortable angle.

Ah ok now this is what I was expecting, a low end FFB wheel (a few weeks ago I noticed Mad catz had an E3 booth so was expecting this announcement but much sooner than today)

Now I now I will get FM4 no matter what...

id rather race with my controller then race with that joke.

i might either stick with my Fanatec Turbo S, or buy the new Fanatec wheel coming out and put my Fanatec Turbo S in my setup downstairs.

^^ I'd take any ffb wheel over a controller

The wheel looks good, but the pedals look like a treadmill.

And the new Mad Catz wheel seems far better than the new microsoft wheel... I will wait for the reviews and it not being more than 150$

Hm, the non-ffb Mad Catz was like $130. No doubt a Fanatec GT2 would be a much better buy for a little more money and patience lol. But at least there is an entry level ffb wheel for new FM4 fans or people on a budget.

Looks like Racing is getting more serious on the xbox 360. 👍

Ok... I would buy this if it was compatible with the wii and if there was ever going to be a new Mario Kart lol. But IMO, serious racing games got to have a wheel with a full diameter, pedals, and a shifter. -__-

I don't like the new fanatec wheel...

I don't like the new fanatec wheel...

In my opinion the GT2 has better looks but the new one seems to be much better in terms of performance.

Not mad keen on the looks myself but its whats inside that counts.

 

[Kludger]

I think it looks like a serious racing wheel now compared to the more consumer Porsche road car look of the GT2... both look fine to tell you the truth.

 

[zr1chris]

LOL what is that? I take it this means forking out for a fanatec if you want to play fm4 with a wheel.

Or find an old MS wheel. Thank god i still have mine.
