 Fun for the whole familyFeb 26, 2010
I do not usually play games on my kids' PS3 , but I did enjoy playing when using this wheel. It has a "real feel" to it when used with GT-5.Less the actual bumping into the board of the "car".
And it does improve the game experience for racing games (according to the little experts).
The only downside: I may have to buy the chair with it, since when attached to a desk:
1. It is not too comfortable, my back hurt in spite of the ergonomic chair
2. It tends to slide as I was pulling it towards me.
Tons of FunFeb 15, 2010
This wheel is tons of fun to race with. You need something sturdy to clamp it to.

 Does not feel 'real' enough...Feb 13, 2010
I bought this wheel hoping that it would give a good simulation of real race driving.
Sadly, I found out too late that the force feedback simulation was not realistic enough. I tried all levels of force feedback adjustments in order to justify my purchase(maybe even close to a hundred times... yes I was desperate...), but failed to get a satisfactory setting. My feeling after trying out this product was that the technology for realistic enough & satisfying driving simulation was just not out in the market yet. Some people say that there are other more expensive & better simulation wheels such as the G25 which do a much better job of realistic simulation, but I am very doubtful of that since Driving Force GT is supposed to be the official wheel of the most realistic race driving simulation franchise called Grand Turismo. When buying this wheel I really looked forward to getting a realistic simulation which the hand held controller just did not provide before. But now, after the great & unexpected dissapointment, I have decided to sell all of my driving games & also this brand new Driving Force GT Wheel which I wasted my money on. Anyone with a driver's licence will immediately notice that this is not how a real car's steering wheel would feel like on real road. I think buyers expecting realistic simulation should at least try out the wheel & force feedback adjustments before buying it. Maybe in 5 to 10 years there will be a proper Game Wheel with better simulation technology. Until then, my wallet will remain in my pocket. I gave two stars for WORSE than 'average' rating....
BEST EXTERNAL ACCESSORY EVERFeb 12, 2010
Racing and car video gamers, THIS is your controller. It is the most advanced and up to date steering wheel for gamers. It has INTENSE force-feedback and great sensitivity. It's got a stick for tiptronic shifting, paddle-shifters for those who can't keep their hands off of the wheel, and a d-pad on the left and the x, o, square and triangle buttons on the right, as well as R2/L2 and R3/L3 buttons for customizable in-game features (nitrous, headlights, convertable top, whatever, ...), and many other features for Gran Turismo. This steering wheel is also backwards compatible with older racing games as well, so don't fret, it works for all of your racing games.
Anyways, BEST controller evar. I wish I could use it for other non-racing games too, since it's such a high quality, high precision, top-notch product.
good funFeb 11, 2010
this product integrates great with all the newest racing titles.gran turismo,dirt 2,need for speed shift etc...
