I know this is gonna sound like I'm trying to trash those who get into the hardware side, but after years of playing games, having had wheels myself, and jumping on demo rigs time and again, I continue to fail in understanding why they are such a big deal.
I can get the "realism" argument as an idea, but in my admittedly spotty experiences, either the input delay, the jerky and/or inconsistent ffb, or just the awkwardness of the wheel or pedals kicks that in the head. I imagine that some of it is down to me being stone handed and empty headed, and some down to most everything I've used being the cheapest stuff on the market, but even so there's still the fact that you are sitting in a seat in front of a screen, and that I have trouble getting around.
