GT Force Wheel - Whats it like?

[Brian P]

For those who have the steering wheel for GT3. I'm thinking of getting this GT Force wheel, with Christmas time coming up and I just wanna know how much better this makes the whole GT3 experience?

Let me get in here before the logitech haters do. I love the wheel, it adds a heck of a lot to the game in terms of fun and replay value. I'm still not as fast as I was with the Dual Shock 2, but I love to race again. And believe me when I say that you will be the envy of all of your friends. When mine drop by, I have a ton of games to play, but invariably they all race with the wheel.
I'll warn you though, it takes some getting used to. At first I thought it was a big mistake, but not anymore.
I have heard the others talking about all the problems that they have had with it, but I haven't had any, except for where to put it. You can't just expect to have it sit between your knees. That will drive you crazy. You need a dedicated place to clamp it to in front of the TV, with a chair high enough so that you can use the pedals comfortably. And use two feet on the pedals. You lose too much time in the changeover.

I'm driving with my Logitech Force GP USB that I got for my pc, a friend told me that he had tested it with the PS2 and it works like a charm. The only bad thing about it is that the pedals are a very light weight so you need something heavier behind them. Haven't tried any special PS2 wheels so I can't say how the others are.
