FM3 Controler or wheel?

[colonel c]

Been playing FM3 for only a couple of weeks now. Love the game BTW:

Just like to know who prefer a wheel or a controller.
And while we are at it. Who has what assists?

I prefer a controller but have a few friends who've bought or made their own chair/wheel/pedal combo and love them, dont feel right to me though.

As for assists i just use ABS and tend to get in silly powered RWD cars and go into banzai attack mode.

Been getting a few miles in recently in prep for fm4. I use a controller with all assists off. Think I would be faster with ABS on but I don't like the feel.

Prefer the wheel, but use a controller because I haven't quite justified the money for one of the Fanatec ones, yet.

[Alex@POD]

I use a controller due to the budget needed for a wheel, as I'd do it properly with a full chair setup etc. No assists as they slow me down too much.

Wheel all the way.

The game isn't worth playing with a controller IMO.

I use a controller, I've got a Logitech G25 wheel but that doesn't work with Xbox. The wheel I've got is great with GT5 though .

What about this, it looks awful but might work for those tight on space? I am kind of tempted when it is released..

edit: bet your arms would ache after a while!

ABS and braking line because I play quite rarely and forget where to brake. Although some nights I pootle up Fujimi Kaido in the Testarossa with everything switched off, in cockpit view.

Heel and Toe with the controller is tricky, but quite satisfying when mastered.
