DFP + 52" Sony XBR6 LCD + 5.1 Surround Sound (JBL and Infinity). Thinking about getting a G25 with a seat and mount for pedals...or whatever the official GT5 wheel will be...
Look at the poll results lol. About 20% of voters in this thread will use a controller. As of today, I'd be using one, but I may buy a DFGT when the game comes out.
I have a G25 that I use on a card table. I will probably get a Wheelstandpro for Christmas though, maybe even before. I also use an HD Acer H243H monitor and sometimes the family TV, a Samsung 61'' LED.
Gears normally on left but not using stick shift in Time Trial and meant wheel wouldn't sit central to tv, which is probably important when I wanna make top 20...
p.s when I play GT5 for the first time and start tuning some real life favourites into race winning monsters I will pitch a tent..👍
Lucky you! My birthday is tomorrow and I am hoping for one (a wheel I mean), but I think I hinted a bit too late. I wanted a DFGT....but again...I think I was a bit late on hinting this to my parents.
But oh well, GT5 is still likely 5 months away, so I can easily make 100 bucks or so in that time.
This might be a little off topic, but which is the best wheel for the money?
-G25
-G27
-DFGT
I don't really care about having a clutch pedal either.
All I need is the wheel, gas, brake, and shifter.
Olevia 47" 1080p
Onkyo TX-SR607 7.1
G25
Playseat Evo w/ bottle-holder mod
I'm looking forward to GT5, but I'm (somewhat) contently playing NFS: Shift (on PC) and GTR Evo in the mean time. I don't seem to make the same kind of seat-time for those games as I did with GT5p though.

^^ The DFGT is probably the best bang for your bucks if you're not picky and don't want to pay 200+
I bought the DFGT and was very surprised by how good the wheel is. The only thing bad is the crappy pedal so I returned it and got a G27.
If you want sequential, better quality and feel wise pedal you need the G25.
The G27 of course is the best quality overall but they took out the sequential shift.
I bought the G27 simply because I don't use sequential shifter and have the extra cash.

There's a big difference in price between the DFGT and the G27.
For the money (£65) the DFGT is great. Feels good and has good force feedback.
Also it's the official GT5 wheel so has full in-game support. For the price of a G27 I'd rather have a Fanatec Porsche 911 Turbos S or GT3RS Wheel. Both are great wheels and both work very well with GT5P and the GT Academy TT.
If you can find one the G25 is a damn good wheel and an improvement over the DFGT.
Depending on when it comes out I will probably have to play it with the dualshock controller and HDTV for a bit until I can buy myself a nice wheel. I have never really minded controllers for console games, though. No biggie.
