Logitech has really gone over the top with the Driving Force GT Racing Wheel
Designed specifically for Playstaion3 and Gran Turismo, the Logitech GT Racing Wheel let s you feel every gut wrenching skid, acceleration, stop, crash and bump in the road. From jaw-dropping tire spins to gear jamming acceleration, this is true to life racing at its best. The GT Racing Wheel features 24 position real time adjustment, fine tune braking, and more to give you ultimate control over your car's performance. The Logitech GT Racing Wheel features 900 degree turning to give you a realistic 2.5 times around, just like the real thing.

Let me show you what current owners have to say about it:
- The pedals are well built, and are on a solid base, which is an appropriate size and weight to be stable during game play. R Mccabe
- I must say, this wheel makes the game so much more enjoyable. You get a level of precision you can't even begin to approach with using the standard DS3 controller. K. Kouvaras
- I can not imagine playing a racing game ever again using a regular joystick .. this is amazing. M. Itani
- This thing makes driving games a hundred times more fun. It resists you during hard turns and wiggles around when you start to go fast (with certain cars). I noticed all the handling differences much better with this than with a standard controller. Buckeyede06
Review paraphrased for size-view original review here
.Nothing is perfect. Here's how the Logitech GT could be better in my opinion.
- The steering seems a bit too sensitive to some. I guess it's all in what you get used to. Really boils down to personal likes and dislikes. Could probably adjust to the sensitivity with time.
- All features may not work with all games. This is really a programming issue and not the fault of Logitech. Some programs simply may not have the capability to utilize all the features on the Logitech GT. However the capability exists for incredible realism with the right game. Check your game descriptions carefully before buying to make sure they are advanced enough to support all the GT's functions.
Conclusion:
- It's really hard to find much to complain about with this unit. Once again Logitech has done it with the GT Racing Wheel for Playstation 3. If you're a fan of racing games, you're sure to like this one. Check it out soon!
