Forums - Sony - So I got a G25 yesterday ...

Oh, it's hella sweet. Ok, I haven't hooked it up yet (I have a board for it so I won't have to unassemble and unlatch it when I am finished) and I was reading it offers force feedback on PS3 games. I haven't updated my PS3 yet - if I plug it in, will F1 Championship or PS2 titles like Test Drive Unlimited cause the G25 to vibrate? I will take a pic of my setup in the a.m. - too tired now. Thanks!

Welcome to the club of awesome. It's the best consumer wheel on the market, the only thing that could make it better is a more solid/accurate stick and an option to lock the stick without pressing the clutch. I have it with the playseats evolution and wish the seat itself rumbled aswell. I'm sure F1 should work, but I'm not so sure about testdrive.



Sweet. Thanks for the info, bbsin. I want to get a seat too, but my space is limited. When I get another house, I will definitely snag a seat too.

Here are some pics of it on my particle board.

 



Hi can you give me this info please? Do you have a clutch for the shifter? Do you actually need to depress the clutch to engage the stick?

Welcome come to the G25 club. It's an absolutely awesome wheel.

Yes it comes with the clutch and it works as it supposed to. (in GT5P at least)

I haven't tried it with other racing games so I'm not sure about the rest.

No. The shifter moves without holding the clutch down. It's the only REAL flaw about the G25 (besides the loose stick IMO), either way, most games don't have a system to recognize exactly which gear you are in. But yes, there is a clutch, and the G25 is pretty badass. The wheel resists according to the momentum of the car and there are 2 strong motors on the thing.



I have the clutch downstairs, btw. I just didn't include it in the shot. I am impressed with the real-feel of the wheel and shifter. It would have been hella sweet to have it lifesize - with a real steering wheel, a real knob and shifter and real pedals.

@Pristine: Muchas gracias



I have one plus Playseat evolution and stick mount.

superb.
