$65?! Any chance of getting me one for that price? I can only find them for $170-$180!!
Was looking for them last week.
Awesome wheel!
Logitech G products are fantastic :D
I have a G15 KB and a G5 mouse.
Would love this wheel for gtr2, but i dont have time for gaming any more... Used to play BF2 for 3 hours a night once upon a time... :(

I work at EB games at Rhodes in NSW and they retail for $99.95 at our store. Try and find it cheaper in Victoria and then price match it - i hooked it up today and wasnt really impressed - you really need a solid bench or ironing board and a proper chair to really enjoy it which is a shame but i dont have the time and or inclination to always pull it apart and re set it!

I've got things to hook it up to, but don't have much money. I've looked around and can only find them for $179.99 RRP, and $89 used (on eBay, still auctioning)..
Reckon you could get me one for cheap? :eyes:

You guys seem pretty knowledgable, I have been looking for something similar for my XBOX (not 360) to use with Forza, Sega GT, Project Gothem etc. I dont want to spend to much in case I upgrade to 360 next year unless I can get one that works on both. Any recommendations?
Edit: I should add that G25 for PS2 looks awesome!

Ey Pulse.
Unfortuant thing is the Xbox steering wheel (Drive FX) is only compatable with the 360, ive never seen any which are compatable for both. I would recommend you get a steering wheel by a brand called 'SELF' - your local EB should have them in stock for $50 at the moment (RRP $100). There an ok brand which comes with a shift knob and pedals etc.
*A word of warning - make sure you have a upright chair and table/ironing board to attach it too. I returned mine to work (works great!) but my gaming chair is too low and is therefore too low for a ironing board. Or else it will slide around and you will get :flame:

Dont know how I missed this, only noticed it while looking for something else. Thanks for the response. I will head out to EB to look at this, for $50 I dont care about replacing it if I upgrade to a 360. I am considering one of those stands like the Lionsden sell for any gaming console, could solve the mounting issue.
