Excellent!
It's everything I wanted, the pedals look so good because they are made of medal, the quality of the wheel and stick is very good. I had this wheel for a few months now and no matter how much I had played it still feels like, the durability is super solid. Plus I really like the smell, it literally makes the room smell like a new car, when I bought my EVO I would love to get inside the car and smell the smell of a new car, this wheel smells just like that which proves is really made out of material from a real car. The size of the steering is perfect for Formula 1 games, and so is the force feedback. I use the clutch as the brake and it feels like I'm really driving a F1 car. For F1 2012, all you have to do is put the steering wheel saturation at 65% and the accuracy is incredible to see. Changing shifts with paddle shifters is also great since they are made of medal like the pedals and it gives to it a better feel than if they were plastic. The wheel looks good with the medal in the middle and the lights for changing gears look great when playing the F1 games. For games like Gran Turismo I would recommend to mod it with a Sparco wheel or any other real size wheel, since this wheel is too small for regular cars on simulators, they sell online good hub adpaters for those wheels that work great with this wheel. They also sell longer paddle shifters for those. For any other arcade game like Grid 2, MotorStorm Apocalypse, or Sega Rally Online, this wheel size is more than enough and makes the arcade gaming experience so much better and so much more fun, to the point that you don't want to stop playing. I would definitely recomment a good wheel stand, I found a really good one here on Amazon for $80, similar to the V2 and works excellent with this wheel, without a proper stand like that it would be hard for you to appreciate how good this wheel is, and you will be surprised how the couch is not bad at all when you use a stand like that. In the case you want to get a racing chair, then find a way to make it move, I've seem videos online of guys that had mod their chairs to move as if you were driving a rally car. If you are not going to do that to the racing chair, then you better off saving your money by just buying the stand because there is no much difference there. If you are wondering about 3D gaming, you can't go wrong with that, I would say having a big 3D TV is better than hooking up 3 monitors together that are not 3D, the 3D effect these days is wonderful, specially when it comes to driving games. If you don't have a big 3D TV, then yes the 3 monitors approach would be better, but even a 2D HD big TV is more than enough to really have fun with this. Cons: The USB cable that connects the wheel to the PS3 is a little short and you may need to buy an extension for it, unless you want to keep it right in front of the screen, which is not bad if you consider that for a car game, being close is better. Logitech does not gives you the chance to have a F1 add on wheel like Thrustmaster does, and in order to put one of those you would really need to know what you are doing which is not feasible to expect from most people. It is too bad Logitech said won't be doing more console accessories, it seens this would be the last one from them, they are really good making then. Also it is very possible this won't work in the upcoming PlaySation 4, but that is something I can't confirm and from what I heard it depends largely on the game makers more than the PS4 system itself. So if you are planning to buy this to play DriveClub on the PS4, I would hold on to see if it is compatible before making the purchase, other than that Gran Turismo 6 is coming up for the PS3 so in that case I would highly recommend to get this wheel for it.

The best you can get for under 300! There are however, some pitfalls.
I had originally used the Thrustmaster Ferrari GT Experience 3-1 wheel for games like Need for Speed (various titles under this) and then iRacing.com. After purchasing iRacing.com's product, I found that such a wheel was not up to the standards of the simulated race experience. So, I saved up and purchased the Logitech G27 Racing Wheel. Let me tell you this, the difference is AMAZING! There are tons of great things I can say about this, but I will spare you that for now and get straight to what you will want to know - the cons. Logitech does not con you with this product, but there are a few pitfalls. Straight away, you will have to 4 chords to manage. They could have put it all into 2, but they gave us 4. But once you work out a system, or get one of those nice wire management foam/plastic shells you're good. The other pitfall is that you might want to work out your arms and shoulders some before getting this! It only can put out a max of 3NM of torque, but trust me those 3NM of torque will tire you out quick if you're not used to such harsh reality. In real life driving wheels can be subject up to and beyond 10NM of torque! (that's more than enough to break fingers and possibly arms, if not injure you!), but you're safe with this product from any injury as long as you keep ergonomics in mind. Also, at first, with such torque at the wheel you will want to make sure to take frequent breaks. You won't believe how fast this wheel (when set to realistic specs of 102% overall effect in the window's control interface, and the default of 16FFB in iRacing.com's settings if you're getting it for that) can tire you out! *****BUT***** Here's the great things about this product from logitech! This wheel is the closest you're going to get to the real thing for under 300 bucks! Amazon provides a great discount here. Once this is set up, you can set it and forget it (for a while, EVERY wheel needs recalibration here and there, even the best). It's the most solid build you'll find. It's even quieter with helical cut gears! You get 3! YES 3! Pedals. Clutch!, break and throttle. Does it get better than this in simulated racing? I mean it's pedals are covered in REAL STEEL! The wheel's frame seems to be steel too! The pedals' base even comes with 3 ways to keep it from moving, hard mounting (screwing into place on say something like a Playseat, can I advertise for them enough?), rubber feet for hardwood floors, and even spikes at the back than can be pulled down to keep it from moving AT ALL on carpet! (And such great design there! It won't move, nor damage your carpet/rug!) Can I say enough about these pedals? I think not! It's accessability is rated 4 just for the amount of chords and the time you'll have to take to set it up in windows and in your various games/sims (which shouldn't take THAT long ;) ). It's comfort is second to none! It's genuine leather they wrapped it in! (though, it has a lot of torque, you get used to it once it's set to you're preference and you give it time) Speed of this wheel is incredible... it can't be turned faster than real life would allow, unless you turn down/off the forced feedback (FFB). With FFB turned off, it's like driving a Cadillac, or so I've heard. You can't get much more real, nor can you get much of a better feel than this... real steering wheels are bigger, but you don't need it really. It's immersion is second only to the real thing. Ergonomics... GREAT!, IF AND ONLY IF you keep in mind where you are supposed to keep your hands and take frequent breaks! Otherwise you could injure yourself. This is professional level simulation here. But if you keep correct positions and breaks in mind, this wheel will not injure you. It's like anything else out there. Cable management could have been better, but they do give you some stuff to help out with the 4 chords they give you. 4 groves to places them in so they don't get pinched and before that a place to wrap excess cable around. Overall, this is the best product you can get for your money (unless that elusive G29 ever comes out, ROFLMAO). There are more expensive products out there, but you will pay much more for them! You can spend hundreds of thousands of dollars for a real simulator, tens of thousands on the lesser equivalent that doesn't move but will give you feedback in the pants in the form of knocks and vibrations and good sound/visuals, 500 USD or more for over-the-top reproductions of this wheel, or you can get the original! The logitech G27 Racing Wheel for the pc is THE BEST wheel you will ever get, without paying too much. Some would say 250 USD is too much, but trust me. You get everything you pay for, and THEN SOME! **Oh, and one last thing, make sure if you're doing your sim racing on a desk (as opposed to the Playseat also available on Amazon), that the desk isn't a cheapie! This thing will have your desk and everything on it bouncing (and possibly breaking), including that expensive HD monitor you payed a lot more for ;). (But don't worry too much here, I haven't bolted anything down and have yet to have anything break or fall) Otherwise I'd recommend bolting down everything that's loose, or at the very least duct-taping it all down! I'm being serious here, that wheel has a ton of force in it. When Logitech call it "force feedback" they mean it has FORCE! 3NM of torque, that is a TON of force for a gaming/siming race wheel!**

Great, and good value for money
There's a distinction in the world of hobbies, about when an item is a "toy" versus "hobbyist grade". I think a good summary of the G27 is that it's on the low end of hobbyist-grade. It's better than any toy, it suits a beginner's budget, but it delivers superior performance to any toy-grade wheel. Pros: -Good-feeling wheel. The wheel is covered in (cheap) faux-leather, the shift knob has a (cheap) faux-leather boot, and overall in use the wheel feels good. The paddle shifters have a nice chunky metal feel, and the shifter knob feels natural to use. Overall very comfortable. The pedals are spaced far enough for me to use, and I'm a 6'+ guy with big feet. -Force-feedback is very variable, including some good resistance and rumble. I would say the feedback is a little on the weak side, the wheel isn't going to pry itself out of your hands, but it is enough to give you a good feel for the road. -Plenty of buttons. You not only get console buttons (four buttons for ABXY) and a d-pad, but four more buttons below that, and six more on the wheel. This should be enough buttons for any enthusiast racer. Theoretically you can even map the H-pattern shifter to 7 more buttons, if you are going to use the paddle shifters. (If you drive automatic, you could have up to 23 buttons!). -Essentially this wheel has all the features of a professional-grade wheel, from force feedback to a clutch pedal and an H-pattern shifter, all at a reasonable price for the entry-level person. It's a great value. Cons: -No sequential shift. There's an easy mod you can do using rubber-bands to convert the G27 shifter to sequential, but out of the box, it's paddles or H-pattern. -Wheel buttons are closely spaced, and don't have any tactile difference. If you need to use all 6 wheels controls, such as setting up brake bias and push-to-talk for online and other in-race functions, you're going to fumble the buttons. Logitech definitely could have done a better job here, but so long as you only need these buttons sometimes (i.e. just for push-to-pass) they should be usable. -A little slow. The way the G27 force feedback mechanism works it's always providing some resistance to the wheel, so it's difficult to really make split-second corrections. You have to spend a lot more cash to get that kind of freedom, so for the value this is really good response. But if you really saw at the wheel you might want to step up to Thrustmaster/Fanatec. The competition: -The Driving Force GT is a lower-cost option from Logitech, with some options removed. The DFGT has its shifter mounted directly on the wheel, so you can't move it around, and there are only two pedals- so no clutch pedal for manual transmission. Otherwise it's similar to the G27. I'd say the DFGT is at the high end of toy-grade. But if you only drive automatic transmission or paddle shift, it's not far from the G27 in terms of quality, for less money. A nice entry-level option. -Fanatec's CSR series wheels cost three or more times what the G27 cost, but they have many great features. Better pedals, tougher force feedback, better feedback motors. Fanatec is really as high as you can go before you step into professional-grade, multi-thousand-dollar setups. sure a Fanatec is better, but it's a lot more expensive too. -Thrustmaster's T500 is of similar cost to a bare-bones Fanatec setup, and thus slightly cheaper overall. Some people report dodgy customer service, so apparently they're slightly hit-or-miss. Again, better than a G27, but more expensive. For game fans: The G27 is more wheel than you need. It's the most money I'd ever spend on a game console, and any kid would be absolutely delighted to get it at Christmas (although, have mom/dad help set things up). For hardcore sim fans: Overall, the G27 is in a niche by itself. It's a great value for money. It has a good feature list, and where it skimps, it does so sensibly. The force feedback motor is relatively weak, but it has good sensitivity. The faux-leather feels on the cheap side, but it's better than plastic, and while you're driving you won't feel the difference. This wheel is overall perfect as a beginner wheel for an enthusiast who's not ready to spend more money on a Fanatec/Thrustmaster setup. If you've been thinking about getting into sim racing, but you just couldn't afford a whole setup, consider the G27. It's a perfect step up into serious racing.

Logitech G27 - Better Than I Imagined
I'll start off by saying for 8 years I have been using the Logitech Momo Black wheel which decided to finally give up on me. I've heard many good things about the G25 and G27 so I went ahead and made my purchase. It shipped here fairly quickly, and the packaging was well done to prevent any damage during transportation. Upon getting it out the box, I was overwhelmed by the amount of wires on this thing. Though considering there's really only 4 wires, to plug into the wheel, it was easy and I could easily hide the wires under my monitor and have them hidden behind my table. Now that it was hooked up to my computer, I could now test it in various games and racing simulations. FIRST GAME: rFactor (PC) The first game I tested it on was rFactor (the wheel comes with a demo, but I had already owned it). After assigning the correct functions in the game menu, I was ready to race. Seeing I have no prior experience with a clutch, it was easy for me to stall and was a hassle to get the hang of it. Eventually I found a couple of mods to help with that such as a grinding tranny mod and one to make the LED's light up for shifting. I can say they are very necessary for a better virtual experience. The pedals felt solid under my feet and provided a good bit of resistance. The wheel itself feels great. I love the leather wrapped feel and it feels very much like some real wheels I've used in the past. Very solid, handy placement for the additional buttons on there, and it provided some great Force Feedback. I did need to tweak the FF settings in Logitech's Profiler software a bit though because it wasn't as strong as I expected it. I used rFactor's NAGT mod developed by The US Pits as my test. With the Corvette being my car of choice, I took to the track surface of Montreal to learn how to use this wheel. With the additional Tranny Grinding mod and the shifter light mod, I knew when to shift and when I messed up on the clutch. It took a few laps to get a feel for it and it was great. The wheel was very quiet compared to my old Momo Black, the shifter felt great, just as I imagined it would would feel. No complaints with rFactor from me. SECOND GAME: NASCAR Racing: 2003 Season (PC) NR2003 was the second game I used this wheel on. Again, I needed to use the Logitech Profiler software to increase the force feedback on the wheel. Unlike rFactor, I was able to upshift without stalling (without using the clutch. Apparently that feature isn't in the game. But the wheel felt very much like what I expected after watching in-car cameras of real drivers during a race. I had a lot more control of the car compared to my old Momo which was certainly beneficial when it came to bump drafting. The steering was very precise and performed well above the expectations I originally had. Certainly a great wheel for the game. THIRD GAME: iRacing (PC) Being hailed as the most advanced racing simulation on the PC, I had high hopes for this one. Right off the bat, the LEDS worked, the FF felt awesome, and overall, it worked great. However I found I couldn't stall the car like in rFactor. Pretty disappointing to me actually since I use that to help know what I'm doing right and wrong. A bit of a disappointment there. FOURTH GAME: Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit (PC) While this is an arcade game really meant to be played with a controller, I was surprised to see how well the G27 worked for this game. It was about an average feel, but it works. Preferably though, I'll stick to using a controller. FIFTH GAME: Gran Turismo 4 (PS2) Well, it works on the PS2. It certainly was better than using a controller which I have been accustomed to over the years. Overall, this was the worst experience I've had with the G27. The cars were very difficult to control, even after finding some decent setups, maybe I didn't spend as much time as I should have practicing, I don't know. The options were very limited as the button mapping was a preset for another wheel and not exactly compatible with this one. The FF felt either very weak or very strong, no middle ground, for me at least. Not much else to say for this one. SIXTH GAME: ARCA Sim Racing (PC) Since this game is based on the same gMotor2 engine used in rFactor, pretty much the review for that can apply here. Nothing more, nothing less. FINAL THOUGHT: I didn't know what to expect really with the G27 since I've been so used to the Logitech Momo Black wheel. Overall though, the experience varies quite differently with each game/simulation. Some it's great for, others not so great. The G27 feels like a solid device and the wheel having stitched leather helps make it feel very much like the wheel you may have on your actual car. I do kinda wish there was an optional shifter with a longer handle to better replicate some vehicles that don't have such a short shaft. But I'm not complaining, it's only a preference. It still feels very well made, I can throw it into gear quickly without hassle, and I enjoy the extra buttons I can map to it for various other functions used in-game. The pedals are great, I love them. They're responsive, made of metal for durability, and are very comfortable under the feet. If you don't mind voiding your warranty, you can also Google mods that can be done to the G27 such as replacing the wheel itself with an actual Momo wheel if it has the same bolt pattern. It certainly would be nice to get a suede wrapped wheel on here, lol.

Excellent Product
Simple to install, easy to use, programs easily and takes a beating. I use this while driving on Gran Turismo 6 on PS3, shifting with the manual shifter can be a little tricky as you have to have the clutch pressed and throttle completely released and have the gear in the desired position before resuming throttle and letting off the clutch. I go a little too fast out of order at times ramming gears and find neutral instead of 3rd sometimes but I know it is me messing up, not the wheel pedal assembly, and I am pretty sure its with the programming in the game. You can go from shifting with the shifter to the paddle shifters on the fly no exiting or pitting then starting again, just grab the wheel and shift with the paddles no problem. Clutching with the paddles is not necessary so you get a true semi-auto transmission feel. Another feature I found on accident is if you shift with the paddle shifters first then go to the stick shift without touching the clutch you can manually shift the cars with the stickshift that allow you to shift manually without using the clutch, so you don"t have to worry about missing gears when shifting. Takes away the clutching feel but helps find the shift position for those that are not familiar with it. Reverse you press the shifter down then go to the 6th gate, and you have to rev the car and release the clutch like a real car, not just gas and go when using the manual clutch setup. Only issue I have is the shifter doesnt have a 7th position, but in GT6 any car that has 7 speeds (except the Lexus ISF) can only be shifted with the paddle shifters, the ISF you can shift up to 6th but never engage 7th as there is no gate or programmed gate on the G27, and honestly I havent found a shifter on the market that offers a 7th position. Keep in mind however, if you decide to get this wheel setup for GT6 as I have only the newest version of most cars can be manually shifted, some "standard cars" you cannot use the shifter/clutch as they are not programmed to do so ingame, you must use paddle shifters. Also some cars that were never offered with a manual shifter (Mitsu Evo X, Lamborghini Aventador etc.) you can only use the paddle shifters. Otherwise enjoy and drive on, and don't be afraid to fight the feedback at times or ram the shifter when setting that lap time, I'm a 260lb guy that swings a 3lb hammer for a living and it takes everything I give it and asks for more. I have mine bolted to a Fanatec CSL Seat (which I had to cut a portion of the shifter mount on the seat off to make the shifter fit even though I wasn't supposed to have to) and it doesn't move or make creaking noises etc, it's solid and I dont have any problems with the wheel at all, it's great and fun to use.

Definitely Worth the Purchase
For about 6-7 years I owned Logitech's Momo Racing Wheel and while there was nothing wrong with it, I was looking for something a little fancier to really bring my racing sim's to life. The G27 fit the bill, not only for the price, but the wheel is a big improvement over the lower models for a variety of reasons. The first is that there is a lot more metal in this piece of equipment than say the Momo version. From the drilled aluminum pedals through to the metal shafted gear lever, the product feels sturdy and gives the appearance that it will last a long time. The pedals are attached to solid springs, especially the brake pedal, and are fully adjustable. There's an Allan wrench bolt you can loosen off and move the pedals to suit feet size, and for racing purists, heel/toe braking for gear shift rev' matching (something I'm still trying to master). The wheel itself has a leather wrap and it feels a lot more precise and smooth than my older wheel. There are more turns in the wheel as well which mimics a real car's rack and pinion system which adds to the important driving feel. The addition of a clutch is pretty cool and I have to say, after years of left foot braking, I am still getting used to making sure I'm braking and not dipping the clutch...kinda like learnin to drive a manual all over again in many ways. While there's no bite-point when releasing the clutch, the software mimics that slightly depending on the game, it still is a good challenge and easy to stall if you're in the gravel. It's especially cool on say SIMBIN's GT Legends as most of the old cars use a 4-speed H box shifter; not having so many gears to plow through makes learning a little easier. Again, the shifter has a metal rod and feels pretty solid, although I can see that aggressively slamming the stick into the gear is probably going to make something break. Not unlike a real gearbox then. The shifters on the steering wheel are equally solid, being aluminum rather than plastic and they deliver a very satisfying click when depressed...once again, it feels solid and requires a little bit of work, not so much a tap like the plastic paddle shifters. There are, as others have mentioned, a truckload of cables that comes with this thing and that is a major drawback. If you can't run them forward over the desktop or similar situation, you'll have cables spilling out past your legs and if you add in track IR and your headphones, it looks like you're plugged into the computer like some sort of Borg unit. The discomfort is minor and worth the extra feel and control you get with this, I thoroughly recommend the G27 if you can't afford to spend 500 or more on some of the high-end pieces of kit out there. After a couple of weeks of use I'm really glad I bought it, and while there are some amazing wheels out there, you're looking at a lot of money. Logitech's done a nice job on this especially for the price.

Great wheel... but some issues.
This is a good quality wheel. Overall I would definitely give it five out of five stars. But it is not perfect and there are some idiosyncratic aspects that I have encountered. I bought this wheel to play GT5, and Midnight Club LA and similar car simulation, driving and racing games on the PS3. It works for PC too but I haven't tried that yet. Quirky things I have noticed: *Whenever I first power up the PS3 the G27 does a full calibration by turning all the way to the right and then all the way to the left and then turning back to the right until it centers... but when I start a game (for example GT5) it does the calibration again... but this time it doesn't center... it ends up slightly slanted or crooked. Also, maybe its just my wheel but when the GT5 starts and it first starts to turn to the right to do the calibration thing it "shutters/stutters"... the rpm lights and the turning motion momentarily freezes and "shutters/stutters" during calibration, but only when it is turning to the right... and this only happens as GT5 loads, it doesn't happen during the initial calibration when PS3 first powers on.... *The G27 claims to have a "push down" reversible gear. But I could never get the G27 to reverse with the gears. Also the whole thing can not be "pushed down"... so I don't understand what they mean by a "push down" reverse-able gear... you can NOT push the snifter down at all! There is no way to reverse the car using the shifter/gear because it won't even have the grooves to let you put it in reverse! The diagram on the shifter is not how it actually is... I can put the gear in 1, 2, 3, 4, and yes even 5... but the reverse does not work! It seems to be a fake position that doesn't even exists on the G27 *It took me a while to figure out that G27 has to be put as controller #1 in order for it to be recognized and work in games like Midnight Club LA. On the Logitech website they list both the GT5 and Midnight Club LA as fully compatible with the G27 out of the box. This is not entirely true. It is not actually plug and play. At first I thought I got a bad/dud G27 until I had to Google for tech support online and came across forums that said you must put the G27 as controller 1 because it will be recognized in the game... but the thing is if G27 is in controller 1 spot, the ps3 controller itself no longers works in the game, even when I put it on controller 2.... what ends up happening is the ps3 controller becomes useless inside the game itself, meaning I have to use the buttons on the shifter/gear in order to navigate the menus and such in the game... This is annoying and a MAJOR hassle. *For the Midnight Club LA the G27 wheel is WAY too sensitive and over-corrects too too too much. This makes it almost impossible to accurately and enjoyably play. In GT5 there is option to adjust sensitivity of G27, but in Midnight Club LA you are SOL... Of course on the PC you have the drivers and software and can do what you want with the wheel, but for PS3 it is locked down and especially for games and titles like Midnight Club LA the G27 sensitivity makes it useless and it can't be adjusted. *The "real leather" on the wheel feels fake. I'm not saying it is not real leather... it just subjectively feel like synthetic leather... this is not exactly the kind of leather you find in a Lexus or anything... *There are too many wires with this setup... it is a mess and easily you can trip over yourself or worse someone trips it over and damages your G27... it makes it worse that the wires are so short... if you have a large TV and want to sit back a bit from the TV you run the chance of accidentally pulling the wires out.... not good... *You really need to get a playseat or similar item for this G27 .. that will end up costing you more than the G27 itself. The attachment devices that comes with the wheel and gear is cheap quality plastic and cannot secure anything at all... I tried to secure it to my table/stand only to have the whole wheel free fall to the carpeted ground 4 feet below... cause the darn plastic attachor thing came unhooked and loose... the wheel is very heavy, so even a free fall of 4 feet could permanently damage it... I'm not sure if mine sustained mechanical damage or not... I ordered playseat with this device but the device came sooner than the seat... so I had tried to mount it to a table but really it doesn't work well at all.... * There is no way to turn off the force feedback in GT5 for the G27. In the options I know it seems like you can turn it off... but in actual races when you hit something or run into rough ground the force feedback comes into full swing.... it is annoying, and it is powerful force feedback that makes you lose control.... especially when you are already drifting and trying to countersteer, the force feedback will make matters worse and cause you to lose concentration and then crash you on purpose.... In GT5 there is NO way to turn force feedback off! This means if you drive on the dirt road it will be impossible to maintain control, might as well use a ps3 controller...

build quality and enjoyment from using it
If you are looking for a racing wheel to go along with your many racing games and driving simulators on your PC this wheel is for you. I am giving this 5 out of 5 stars on pure product usage, build quality and enjoyment from using it. The biggest disappointment from this product is that it is not compatible with the PS4 only the newer G29 is compatible. I know you can't blame logitech because it is software through the sony that won't allow it, but it is still a disappointment that it's not possible due to the fact companies want to make more money. I would recommend this to anyone that wants to play games on a PC with a wheel. The price range is reasonable for a wheel such as this one. The force feedback feature makes games so much more fun to play. This wheel is not like playing in an arcade as a kid where you throw the wheel back and forth swerving. Many games are compatible with the force feedback feature. The clutch on this is also what makes this wheel and pedal set so much better, this feature adds so much more realism to playing simulators and games. Overall I am very happy with my purchase. Pros: -Very nice build quality -Force Feedback -Clutch and Shifter -Nice leather wheel -Excess off buttons to bind -Paddle Shifters Cons: -Medium Price range not super affordable for day to day gamer. -Sometimes hard to attach to certain desks -Not compatible with every game I would recommend this to anyone that has the money and has been wanting a wheel to use for a various number of video games. Be careful and do your research to make sure the games you want to play are compatible though. This product though is an investment as it is reasonable price range for the quality of product but is not a cheap purchase.

Tried and True, an excellent wheel for anyone looking to start out or upgrade.
I was rather hesitant about buying this at first. I was wondering if I should just go the last 5 miles and get the Thrustmaster T500 for my simcade racing experiences. Boy, was I wrong about this wheel. For a beginner, it's more than enough. Quality construction on everything aside from perhaps the 6-speed shifter which seems to be a touch plastic-y and iffy when doing quick or sudden gear changes. Not a huge thing, just something I noticed while racing in Assetto Corsa. FFB is adequate, I don't have any true grips about it. Pedals are a seriously solid, full metal construction. They could use custom coils though. I found the brake pedal to be way too stiff while the gas pedal to be way too loose. Overall I'd give this a 5/5 so far. DiRT Rally is a blast and the roads in Assetto Corsa really reflect back to you in the wheel. Is it going to be as good as the high level Thrustmaster wheels? No. But you're also not paying TS level prices with this either. I might come back after a couple months to update on how things are going with it, but so far I'm more than satisfied.

excelente volante
Aunque sea un volante que lleva ya tiempo en el mercado la calidad del force feedback es excelente. En simuladores de Pc puedes configurarlo a tu gusto y puedes hacer una experiencia realmente buena, si lo que buscas es jugarlo en ps3, yo siempre practico en gran turismo 6 va bien el volante la verdad muy buena respuesta (pero hay que modificarlo en los ajustes del juego como por ejemplo ponerlo en simulador, sensibilidad etc.). Tengo WRC4 y el volante tiene una fuerza impresionante. las palancas es chica pero funciona corectamente igual que el embrague. Los pedales tiene materiales de alta calidad, los pedales no tiene valvulas hidraulicas ni se ajusta la dureza, tampoco cuentan con vibradores. Lo recomiendo mucho mas que un thrustmaster 300 el costo vale la pena y se me hace justo. por cierto llevo ya 9 meses de que lo adquiri y me funciona igual.

Nach wie vor das Top-Modell
Dieses Lenkrad ist wirklich jeden Cent Wert, wenn man gute Verarbeitung, extrem gute Haptik und Funktionalität haben will. Zwar gibt es schon länger Nachfolgermodelle, aber leider hat die Qualität der Produkte von logitech mit den Jahren sehr nachgelassen. Deswegen empfehle ich jedem weiterhin das G27. Einrichtung unter Windows 10 ist kein Problem. Mit entsprechenden Adaptern bzw. Konvertern soll es sogar an der Xbox One funktionieren.

ハンコンでやらなきゃ勿体ない
3年前にGT5が出たのに合わせて購入しまして最近まで使っていました。 ハンコンはPS時代に変なプラスチック製のものが初めで、 ロジクールのGTFP→そしてG27が自分にとって三代目のハンコンとなります。 プレイシートを買ってやっていましたがこれは最高に面白いです。 ハンドル→高級感もありとても握りやすいです。 手が滑らない質感で運転しやすいです。 シフト→G27の特徴の一つ6速H型シフトノブは良い感じです。 スコスコとシフトチェンジ出来る辺りは、実車のガコッ!とシフトするのとは違い軽い感じです。 けれど、ゲームコントローラーでここまで出来れてば合格でしょう。 シフトノブブーツも革製でちゃんと付いてます。 フットペダル→シフトと同じくこのG27の特徴の一つでクラッチ付きの3ペダルのフットペダルです。 作りが頑丈で、ハンドル、シフト、フットペダルの三つの中では最も素晴らしい部分です。 一番感動したのはペダルの重さです。結構バネが強くて強く踏み込まないといけません。 けれど、この重さは実車に近いものがあり自分は好感触でした。 クラッチもありますがまだ実質クラッチに対応したレースゲームが少ないのが現状で、 使用頻度は実はそんなになかったです。 GT5でも一応クラッチは使えますが、少し特殊な操作をしないとクラッチを有効に出来なかったはず。 自分は結局クラッチなしで6速シフトで遊んでいました。 総じて素晴らしい商品といえます。 どのハンコンでも言えるのですが、レースゲームはパッドでやらずにハンコンでやった方が良いです。 パッドではレースゲームの5割くらいの楽しみしか味わえないと思います。 専用シートは正直重く出し入れに苦労します。自分もそうでした。 良くこのハンコンを買った人はこんな商品を買っています、の項目にある2000円位の机と椅子でも楽しめますよ。 まずはそれでやってみて、本格的にガチッとした装備でやりたい!という人はシートを買うとよいですね。 追記: ハンドルの部分を少しコメントを追加。 FFBは当然ながらキッチリ効きます。自分はGT5でしか使っていませんが、結構強めに効いていると思います。 ハンコンでFFBがないものがありますが、あるとないとでは雲泥の差ですよ。 コーナーリングで、縁石に乗り上げた時に、壁に追突した時、ハンドルに衝撃がバッチリきます。これが最高! デュアルショックのパッドが振動するのとは大違いです。
