5 of 5 Only way to play simulation racers. Friday, March 06, 2009 A Gamer from Waterford, MI
I have used only on GT5 Prolouge Spec III.
The FFB parameters required the highest settings for it to feel right for me. I have used the Logitech Driving Force Pro. The GT wheel is very similar, but the FFB settings on the GT are lower compared to Pro. The FFB seemed notchier on the GT wheel, but nothing that was too distracting.
I constructed a folding stand to accommodate the wheel and it's FFB. Using a table didn't work well for me as the height wasn't right. Not everyone can construct a stand, but I recommend making or budgeting for one. Unfortunately, an FFB wheel is no good by itself unless you have a stand that works.
I am sure the G25 is better, but $100+ dollars better I am not so sure. Not for me at least. I can buy real performance parts for my car for that price.
The real-time vehicle adjustments are nice. I didn't think I'd use it, but I ended up liking that feature.
Overall, a must have for Gran Turismo and other sim. racers. Was this review helpful?
3 of 5 Need the seat Monday, January 05, 2009 Marty from Las Vegas, NV.
Unit works well, But you really do need the seat. Which makes this product pretty lame with out the seat and they want an arm and legg for it. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Will keep you playing all nite long Friday, January 02, 2009 Melissa from Scranton, PA
Bought the wheel for my husband for Christmas and I find myself playing with it as much as he does. Works great with GT5. Found ourselves up until 2:30am playing. Definitely worth buying! Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Old Guy Still Enjoys Life In The Fast Lane! Monday, September 29, 2008 John from Wonder Lake, Illinois
I am 65 years old and have not had such heart ponding fun in years. I purchased the Logitech Driving Force GT for use with my PS3 and Gran Turismo 5 game. I couldn't be more pleased with the purchase. I have spent hours playing the game and can't seem to get enough. Boy, has my reaction time improved, but still a bit slow. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Very realistic feel Monday, July 28, 2008 Chuck from Goose Creek, SC
This is a "must have" for GranTurismo..without it you're only getting about 50% of the feel of this game. This wheel is well worth the price. To get the absolute full effect you really need a racing seat..I have the PlaySeats Evolution which provides hours of comfort and a sturdy platform for the wheel and pedals. Also, was very pleased with Buy.com and the fast shipping. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Freaking awesome! Saturday, May 31, 2008 daniel from irvine, ca
I bought this as soon as it was available. Playing Gran Turismo 5 Prologue with the controller is worthless. Gotta have a wheel! This is the official wheel. Much less expensive than the G25 setup and works really well. I love my wheel. Very sturdy wheel, sequential shifter, and foot pedals. I clip the wheel to a cheap IKEA table and it's perfect. If you're playing Gran Turismo, this is a MUST BUY!!! Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Fun Fun Fun Sunday, May 25, 2008 cenko from Washington, DC
great product, adds much more fun to the GT. feeling the road is pretty cool, its like a driving a real car.
force feedback works like a charm adds more pleaseure to driving, of course if you are a car not like me.
if you are into GT this thing is a must!
It slowed me down on a bit in real driving, you literally see what happens at fast speeds if you dont watch out, with this steering wheel.
you need a good set-up tho,
i haven't found a nice table to make it stable,
i made something for myself whichs a laughin matter to my friends but works for me for now at least,
if you got the money there are nice racing chairs for it too, which i won't be buying at all.

5 of 5 Perfect for your PS3 and GT5 Thursday, May 22, 2008 Bruno from Philadelphia, PA
Logitech Driving Force GT Wheel with Force Feedback is perfect for your PS3 and GT5. I'm very happy I chose this model. Works even better if you find Playseats Evolution to go with it :) Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 THE BEST WHEEL Saturday, May 17, 2008 A Gamer from Detroit Michigan
Great price, super fast shipping. It arrived before Gran Turismo did from Best Buy. The perfect wheel for GT5 Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Love the Wheel Friday, May 16, 2008 A Gamer from Tucson AZ
I'm 67 and wasn't doing much gaming until the WII. I like the motion control. I've moved to the PS3 for the Blu-Ray and like the racing games. I prefer simulations so I bought GT5P when it came out. The Logitech Driving Force GT has greatly increased my pleasure and performance. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 For a True Driving Simulator Experience Thursday, May 01, 2008 A Gamer from Fargo ND
....you have got to got this. I ordered this on Sunday and it arrived on Wednesday the day it was released at all other stores. It takes a bit of getting used to since this is meant to simulate real life. You can't just turn a little and expect to go around a corner, you have to turn just like you would normaly. Only one Con so far, where to mount this? I have a folding tray table that I'm using now, but I might need to hack it up to get it to allow the proper angles. Great price great product Was this review helpful?
