Best steering wheel for XBOX 360 (to use with PGR3)

[Shinigami]

Anyone got recommendations?

Dont think one has come specifically for the 360 yet. If I were you, I'd wait.

Yeah, I did some more research, and at least here in Europe, there's just nothing worth it... sucks =(

The Mad Catz one looks quite nice, but who knows when it'll come out...

Why couldn't they just keep the connectors the same on the 360 as they did with the original one. humbug...

^^ Why couldn't they (Microsoft) just for once and for all sort out their licensing issues and allow USB conneciotn of their own Force Feedback Sterring wheel?

[anti-micro$haft rant on]
I have a suspicion that it is not a licensing issue, but rather a significant architecturla design flaw that they have never bothered adressing - and probably never will.

I mean, if a Windows or Linux PC can have plug and play driver support for USB peripherals, then a $500 console surely can.

This and Microsofts obsession with preventing the end user from copying data off the XBox prevents sharing of images captured and prevents backups of saved games being made etc.

Yet another example of very poor engineering.

I enjoy Fight Night 3 and PGR3 for hotlapping, but other than that, the XBox360 is a very poorly engineered hunk of junk, that does not do anything a PC a cannot already do, and do it better.

I was in target the other day and they had a steering wheel specifically for the XBOX 360. I thought about getting it, but I would have no where to put it when i'm playing games.
I was about 65 bucks, which isnt too bad considering the GT4 one for PS2 is over 100 bucks here in Florida. :roll: It looked really cool and all, it had paddels on the wheel and also a stick on the right hand side of the wheel. I want to try it, then i might consider buying it, but i really do like using the triggers and joystick, less to set up, and doesnt break as easily. Im looking online to see if I can find it.

I had a MadCatz wheel, and they make a good product, this version has vibration-control- not force-feedback. So in essence, you cannot feel the car going through the corners, you will just feel the bumps in the road. But if you are on a limited budget and want one now, I would say go for it.
