Its the G25 - You wont regret it
The G25 is THE wheel, if you are serious about racing.
From the H pattern gear selector, to the weighted pedals, to the powerfull force feedback effect, this device is superb.
Designed by race gamers for race gamers the G25 will give all you need.
The pedal set, is made with actual real metal. How many other wheel sets give you that. The pedals are on gas damped shocks which are weighted differently, so the brake is much stiffer than the throttle. Excellent.
The leather bound wheel is a joy to use. With up to 900 degrees rotation,it is so precise you wont believe it.
The gear selector can be switched to act as a shifter which is cool.
Its not all ups though. Some games are tricky to set up. GPL, needs third party downloads to work properly for example. Some games, such as Colin Mcrae do not work well with the force feedback (or at least I cant get them to)because the forces need reversing.
You may find the shifter is not weighted enough and feels a little flimsy. Its well made, but the springing could have been stronger. Personally I like it, but some of the drivers in my league do complain.
I use the wheel mostly for GTR2 and GTL. It provides the most immersive feedback system I've ever used, and I used to use the superb microsoft ffb wheel.
If Logitech added a reverse forces option in the profiler I suspect this wheel would work easily with every game. As it is you may find some games will not benifit from the advanced ffb effects, and so I only gave it 4 stars overall.
The G25 is not cheap - but it is worth it.
G25 = Great fun...
I started off with buying a Guillemot RGT Force Feedback Pro Clutch Edition wheel, but I found that after a while the outer wheel started to part company with the centre, even though the overall build quality was very good...
After this happened I treated myself to a G25, and I have to say this wheel is in a league of it's own. The quality is second to none and will no doubt last a very-very long time, I am disabled and unable to use the foot clutch, but I found I can use one of the paddles behind the wheel, you could also set the paddle on the other-side as a throttle as the movement is gradual and smooth...
I'd say, if you can afford it then go for the G25 you will not be disappointed...
Overall marks for the G25 has to be 10/10...
Top Quality and Service
After many weeks of thinking shall I buy one I just bought it and dont egret it 1 bit. I thought to myself if Im going to spend £100 on a wheel misewell go £50 more and get the daddy. This wheel is brilliant its build quality is great. On the PS3 it works perfect and the force feedback is brilliant. Also very good on PC titles like GTR2 and Race 07.
If you want the best wheel out there then get this.
