 1000% more control August 31, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I have not used any other wheels or used the wheel with any other games besides GT 5 Prologue, but this setup is bad a$$. It gives you much more control than the hand-held controller. Everything works better...steering, gas, brakes. We got it for $119.00 on Amazon so watch for a sale. Highly recommend. The wires can be a nuisance and it's best to clamp it down even if it is just a board and set it in your lap.
Logitech Driving Force GT Racing Wheel August 30, 2008
This wheel adds a whole new dimension for GT5P. The Force feedback is amazing! You feel the road, the bumps of the red/white curbs, weight distribution of the car in the turns(sudden lane changes too)...Also, the pedals are solid. The base does not move on my carpet when I depress the gas/brake pedals. You have a better feel for the car with the pedals as opposed to the analog sticks/buttons on your dualshock controller(no full on gas/brakes.)
All in all, a solid performer for a racing wheel(with GT5P.) I have not tried any other racing games with the wheel, but I will be heading to my corner rental retail store and try some out!
As for the money, I leave that up to you(its worth it to me!)
--Now I need to take some driving lessons--
 What a jerk! :D August 28, 2008
I will never play a driving game without a wheel again. The force feedback is very strong (and can be adjusted) and works with several games...apparently... I don't know, the PS3 has just been playing GT5 Prologue since I got this awesome wheel. Grid is a great game with it also.. It makes it real. Daytona is actually a fun track to constantly go around and around and around.
One note, make sure it's really attached to the table. You'll never realize until you have this wheel not completely secure.. on how much one pulls "down" on a steering wheel vs. rotating it.
Good product! August 27, 2008

I own Logitech Driving Force Pro for PS2. I bought this unit for PS3. As same as Driving Force Pro, this controller is very slick and love it.
Besides the product, the shipping from Amazon is quick and very much satisfied.
Wow, took a while to get used to... August 21, 2008

The Logitech Driving Force GT racing wheel took me a while to get used to. It's not as precise compared to real-world driving as it claims to be, but after you get used to the handling and nuances of it, it really is fun and makes the perfect compliment to Gran Turismo 5 Prologue.
The biggest point I do have to make about this, however, is that it's really designed for a gaming seat, and is a pain to use without one. The wheel is mountable on other surfaces, but we've had a hard time getting the perfect setup without an actual gaming "driver's" seat to compliment it.
Other than that, it serves it's purpose and delivers on pretty much everything it claims, and we haven't experienced any glitches in gameplay or controls which is a major plus. I'd highly recommend this to anybody who's thinking of getting or already has Gran Turismo.
