 Whole New Racing Experience September 29, 2008
James Speirs (Provo, UT)
I have played racing games for years using the Logitech Cordless Rumble Pad 2. While that is a great gaming controller, this steering wheel is what I have really been needing. The wheel makes the experience feel very realistic. I've been using the wheel to play Need for Speed: Pro Street and the wheel provides accuracy and feel for how the car is reacting to the road. Example: I can feel in the steering wheel when I am corning so sharp that I am losing traction on the inside wheels.
I was worried that paying so much for a steering wheel would not be worth it to me. In hind site I am very happy that I purchased the Logitech G25 and I recommend it without reservation.
CLUTCH! METAL! LEATHER! August 21, 2008
A. Leonard (Delton, MI)
Ok sim racing fans, this has got to be the best main-stream available wheel. I have had nothing but enjoyment in using it. The only hassle is set-up and tear-down: wires galore (it sure would be nice to have a dedicated sim racing station). It would be awesome if they were able to implement wireless communication between the components...
Pleasantly surprised August 17, 2008

I bought this wheel without seeing it in person, and wasn't 100% sure what it would be like. It turns out to have a very solid look and feel and seems more or less like driving a real car. I can't compare it to other wheels, but I can say that this wheel gets the job done and makes driving games both more fun and easier to win.
Expensive,,,but fun to use! August 3, 2008

It's expensive, but it is really fun to use, it even helped me improve on some of my times.
Best computer accessary ever August 1, 2008

I have owned this now for over a month and it has just been the best and most fun thing I have ever owned for my computer. The only down sides that I have with it is the clamps. They are plastic and don't really do a good job with my desk. I had to find a peice of wood use the plastic clamps to clamp it to the wood then use C-clamps to clamp it to my desk, not a big deal but for $250+ you would think they would of come up with a better way to mount it.
The force feedback is really strong so if you haven't used the wheel before keep it on low, otherwise it will break your wrists. All around good design, feels great in the hands, and the shifter is quite amazing. Petals feel realistic, but the paddle shifters really need to stay still... If you have the wheel on 900 degree turning you often forget which one is the up shift and which one is the down shift.
