I'm probably looking to buy a new PC steering wheel specifically with a view to using it with 'GT Legends'.

Our old steering wheel is now getting a bit the worse for wear (Thrustmaster)...We've got a Logitech Driving Force which we use on a PS2...don't know if this can also be used on a PC?

If not...any recommendations for a new steering wheel?

Thanks in advance

The Driving Force does work on the PC just fine (with the Wingman drivers) but I've now got the Driving Force Pro - it's much better.

Cheers!

Thanks...yes just tried the Driving Force and it does work...no force feedback at the moment so I'll have to figure out why...haven't tried installing the drivers yet may be that's why? The actual controls seemed to work immediately upon plugging it in i.e PC recognised it straightaway.

May yet look into getting a Driving Force Pro...as it's supposed to be so much better.

How do you run a clutch on one of these wheels?

Thanks again.

I normally run with an automatic clutch because it only has the two pedals, but you can probably get an aftermarket pedal kit. I'm sure someone will be along shortly to tell you...

Or you could wait for this to be released in October...

Very nice!...but OUCH! See the price?!
As most of the driving will be done by my 11 year old son (who has no regard for the cost of ANYTHING!) I think we'll have to give that one a miss and settle for a 'Driving Force Pro'.
