Yes it will be fine, peripherals (Wheels, Dualshock) are all the same. The only issue you will have is the plug which goes into the electric socket in the wall may be a different shape, so you will need a North Europe to Asian/Philipino plug adaptor. IT might be cheaper/easier to buy a DC powersupply locally from an electric shop (doesnt have to be a logictech powersupply, but does need to have the correct DC output) and junk the German one that comes with the wheel.

Software is a different story, yes you are right about the games not working.

Socket's not a problem nor voltage. We're used to plugging in Singaporian/Hong Kong/US/Japanese/UK appliances with adapters, transformers, etc. Thanks for the warning though.

I might get the wheel from the US though. Sourcing the DFD here is a headache. The shop that sold me GT4 hasnt contacted me concerning it for over a month. The importer I talked too hasnt replied back. Logitech isnt bringing it in so I have to ask friends coming home for summer to bring 1 in for me. It wouldnt be a problem for them bar the fact it is 13-16 pounds!

Well the TransAm2001 said the only problem will be the socket for power. The USB device area should not be a problem since it is called the UNIVERSIAL something something.

The joke here among the Brits is that there is just the one bus serving the whole of Ft Worth. I can count the number of times I have seen a bus in the past 2 years on 2 hands

I have found in amazon and in ebay that the wheel is the most cheepr..
Just i want to know if in amazon or ebay they sell it used?

Pimp Racer · 04-11-2005, 04:27 PM

I think Ebay sells them used for sure! But it depends on the seller.

Amazon.com: Driving Force Wheel for PlayStation 2 and PlayStation 3: Electronics
