G25 Racing Wheel help

[agent-x]

hi all

i am thinking of buying the g25 wheel for my ps3

i was wondering has anyone on here used it and is it worth the money...

thanks

Yes and yes. Awesome wheel - probably still the best on the market IMO. 6 speed gears, clutch pedal, decent resistance on the brake pedal, great force feedback and a 900 degree steering lock. Certainly not a cheap bit of kit, but well worth it!

I've got one and its brilliant. Feed back really works, its quiet. I've had a shitload of wheels over the years and this one is BY FAR the best of the lot. Easily the best wheel/pedal combo under £1000.

the only real 'issue' that I personally have is that my boat sized feet aren't perfect for heel/toe, they are just weirdly offset for me personally. I just left foot brake/clutch instead which oddly works.

i think this is now on the hit list

still bloody waiting for gt5 thats where i really want to use it

anyone got a playseat by any chance?

I attended a press event with a bunch of playseats last week. Very nice pristine white leather ones they were too. Pretty cool if that's what you're into.

The G25 is sweet, although I am currently only using it with "GTR2" , I currently don't have a decent enough setup for use with my PS3 + Also waiting for GT5 (Final).

However I am considering this >>>Fanatec.com (not the steering wheel, just the stand)

My only issue with it, is the 6 Speed shifter is very light to shift, would have enjoyed some resistance when shifting + vibration etc.. (although can't really complain as no other Steering wheel on the market have these features unless you pay ££££)

Got my wheel for £148. Don't pay much more than that. I've seen them in pcworld for £199

[agent-x]

where from?

Yeah I hated that too...

But I reckon with the G25 Pt 2 the shifter will get force feedback. I MIGHT just upgrade to a FREX wheel, pedals, shifter & handbrake by that time though.

One time investment for the best of the very best *(http://www.frex.com/gp/)
