Driving force pro

A question to anyone that's into driving games on the console (or PC). I keep hearing about a Driving force pro which has 900 degree rotation (like a normal car) and works with GT4 and most PC driving games (although I'm not sure how it works on both PS/2 and PC, maybe USB ?

Anyway does anyone have a steering wheel they would recommend or know about the driving force pro and care to give any comments on it ?

In a real car you rotate the wheel 900 degree's lock to lock (or so I'm informed)

If you're is only 360 it must be a bugger to parallel park and three point turn ;)

I think you mean 90 degrees m8 & 360 for a full rotate....unless the laws of physics changed? :grin:

Legs is correct :) apologies if I was being unclear never actually used this steering wheel but I do remember the last steering wheel I had which was 6 years ago ish the thing which never felt right was going from full lock left to full lock right in less than the full rotation of a wheel (i.e not even a full 360 degrees). That one of the reasons the pro one appeals although it is I think just over double the price of the non pro one, or the one Haze pointed out (which looks identical specs to the Driving Force, non pro one).

The difficulty is it's alot of money and as it seems unlikely I'd ever get to try before I buy I was hoping someone here had come across it or tried it out, or at the best possible case had one. The fact Haze has a Logitech MOMO one and loves it is a good start though and makes me think the built quality is up to scratch which is alot of the battle.

I never meant to get onto physics or anything like that, just about the realism of the wheel, did it feel good, and was the feedback more than just some dull rumble and did things like slackening the tension when you lose grip or start losing the front end in a corner.
