5 out of 5 stars Great wheel & pedals for GT4   November 30, 2008
Gran Turismo 4's driving experience gets a whole lot better with this wheel and pedals. It will feel like a new game as the realism is enhanced. Not to mention the added feature of displaying a steering wheel on the screen so that you don't have to look at your hands (not an in-car view, get GT5 Prologue for that). I definately recommend it.


4 out of 5 stars Fine addition to PS2 driving games, remember the mount!   October 22, 2008
The internet is filled with positive reviews about the Driving Force Pro -- so I'll add to the mix, but with a different spin.

PROS: The wheel itself is great, with solid construction, good "force feedback", and excellent compatibility with my Sony PS2. I'm playing it mainly with GT4 and a little Burnout Revenge -- no problems. Very little learning curve, as this set-up is much more "natural" in the context of a driving game rather than a controller pad.

CONS: The price is still high (though this website is among the cheapest), and it absolutely requires a STRONG, THIN tabletop for mounting. The clamps open no more than 1.25 inches. Many of the folding tables and TV stands are too unstable and/or too thick. I ended up buying a small computer desk for $20 from a nearby W***art store. So expect to add this cost to the total price.

Overall, a good purchase.



5 out of 5 stars Great Wheel   October 13, 2008
Great wheel AAA+ but has to mounted on a stand or mount to be fun. Strapping it on as table just plain sucks. Do a check on the net and find a race cradle to make out of PVC. I built a really sturdy one for $25 at lowes! Makes the best racing game even better!

This is just great PERIOD! I just love it and it just is about perfect IMO.


5 out of 5 stars Love it !!!   July 10, 2008
I bought it for my husband birthday. When he saw it, he could not wait to tried that for Gran Turismo 5 Prologue (PS3 game). It is very easy setup and he said much better than use PS3 WIRELESS CONTROLLER!!!
