I've got Logitech Driving Force Wireless which has a fault.. Amazon are going to refund. I might take this as an opportunity to upgrade.. what do you guys recommend? This one didnt have pedals, think I'd like pedals, and decent paddle shift.

I see in the specs it boasts '900-degree wheel rotation' isnt this going to make F1 impossible? Or do you set it up customised

Are you talking about F1 2010? If so it works absolutely fine.

You can change between 900-degree and 180-degree modes on the wheel, and I imagine most games will automatically set it to one mode or the other, or have options for it in the menus.

The earlier version of that wheel (driving force pro) actually had a button combo (something like press left, triangle and R2) to physically switch it from 900deg mode to 200 deg mode, I expect the DFGT has a similar feature?

+1, I use one of these on my PC and i've been very pleased with it. Don't know if PC / PS3 will be the same in this respect, but by default my steering is on full lock after 90 degrees either way in F1 2010.

The only thing i dont like is the sequential shifter is on the right and you can't move it to the left side, as you can on some other wheels. But, i use the paddles anyway so it doesnt bother me smile

Are the paddle shifts big enough to work well? I've only seen a picture of the wheel but they looked a bit on the tiny side to me
