So now that GT5 has a release date I'm looking into buying a steering wheel for the PS3. I haven't bought one since I had my PS2 and so I'm a bit lost as to what's good and what sort of features they have.

I'm looking to spend around a $100, but I'll spend more if it's pretty awesome. 

So far all I've found is this one:

So here are my question's:

- Do all PS3 steering wheel's work on every racing game on the system or does the game have to be compatible?

- What can I expect to get for around $100

- Is it worth getting a steering wheel this late into the generation?

- How much better is it than a Dualshock?

Thank's for reading : )

I need this advice too! Preferably a wheel that works with both the PS3, X360 and PC.

And I want a wheel with a large turning angle.

And I want foot pedals.

I don't think anyone want's to help us :(, no replies for the last hour.

from my observation at Bestbuy, they bundle their steering wheels with a different game that are most recent one.

I bought the Logitech G25 Racing Wheel back in 2006 and it was impressive to say the least (Back Then) However the Logitech G27 Racing Wheel is definitely better although the price is higher. So if you have no money the G25 is still good if you can find it LOL.

LOGITECH G25 RACING WHEEL

Pros

• Dual-motor force-feedback is strong and precise (Makes you feel like you are driving a real car)
• 3-pedal system includes pneumatic brake and separate clutch (Its carpet gripping so it doesn't slide)
• Large 11" diameter leather wrapped wheel feels and drives great (Very comfortable)
• Supports PC, Playstation 2 and Playstation 3 games (Don't know about Xbox 360)
• Incredible build quality obvious with stainless steel, aluminum and leather components (Very good quality)

Cons

• Most expensive of all force-feedback wheels on the market (Its cheaper now but hard to find)
• Brake and clutch pedals a little too close together (If you have BIG feet)
• Some users reporting trouble with reverse gear (Didn't have that problem for me though)

Description

• The 11" leather wrapped wheel feels great in your hands. The wheel features two butterfly shifters and two thumb buttons.
• Wheel features 900 degrees of rotation which is 2 1/2 turns lock-to-lock.
• Shifter switches from 6-speed gated shifter with push-down reverse to a sequential bump-shifter with the turn of a knob.
• Shifter has 8 programmable buttons plus a programmable D-pad. The G25 can do just about anything you need it to.
• Three-pedal unit has pneumatic brake pedal for realistically stiff braking.

Go Logitech or go home and play with a lame DS3.  My mouse, headset, keyboard and computer speakers are all by Logitech.  I've owned their racing wheels in the past and while there isn't much for competition, nothing compares.  Shop around for prices.

Im getting the Logitech G27 in just 6 weeks. Mainly for Gran Turismo 5:Prolouge and ofcourse 5 xD.

really looking forward..

Sony should make a controller, since GT is there biggest franchise and all..

I'll probably end up with the G27,  but I am waiting to see if maybe there might be a bundle with a steering wheel with GT5
