Further worried whirring occurs on boot-up, and you're in. With no driver disks or set-up procedures required, it's hassle-free, and booting up Gran Turismo 5 Prologue demonstrates that the game instantly knows the device is attached. Set-up is straightforward, requiring little more than connecting the wheel to the pedal unit, plugging the USB connector into the PS3, powering it up and looking on curiously while it makes a series of fretful whirring self-check noises. For the price difference, you won't mind - and if you do, save up and get the full banana. Compromises, yes, but fortunately not too many to detract from what is an excellent unit. Instead of a proper, realistic press-down-and-pull separate gearshift unit, it's integrated. Instead of a three-pedal unit with a clutch, you get the usual two pedals. Instead of a lavish leather wheel, we have to be content with high-quality moulded plastic 11-incher with a slightly rubbery feel. Win.Īs you'd expect, the construction isn't as lavish as The Daddy.
In the case of the recently released Driving Force GT, this is Logitech's attempt at budget luxury, in that it's roughly half the price of the flagship G25 but retains most of its features.
But for the time you spend playing the average driving game, your inner geek wins the argument, because you're worth it. As much as I love these things, experience suggests it'll spend most of its life hogging cupboard space and the rest of it annoying your housemates. Some of you might reason that spending GBP 90 on a gaming peripheral to shave 0.1 second off your best lap time is going a bit far, and you'd be right. Yes, this is serious business, albeit on a budget. What do you mean I can't put the table there? No you can't watch Relocation Relocation. Logistics and living arrangements temporarily go out of the window and absolute commitment to sexy gadgetry takes over. This includes promotion of YouTube or Twitch channels, an artist's social media pages, and leagues.Being a practical kind of guy, the first thing that strikes me whenever I'm faced with a console steering wheel is, "how the hell will this work in the lounge?" But we're in hardcore driving gamer territory here, so practicality be damned.
