g25 wheel

I’m not an eloquent guy, and certainly not a frequent Amazon reviewer, but I just thought I’d clear up questions if anyone else is in the same boat I was (PS3 owner looking for a wheel).
I love driving sims for PS3, and thought the G25 would be a great way to get my dad to play some games too. I wasn’t sure how the G25 would work with the PS3, but lo, it’s flawless. Hooked up via USB, the wheel can fully mimic the function of the Driving Force Pro, so Gran Turismo and F1 championship racing give you everything they’ve got. It also has a lot of future potential with the Gated gearbox and clutch-pedal that most current games don’t use. The only reason you might keep a sixaxis handy is for the “home” button to quit to the XMB (ps3 OS).
“Feedback” is an understatement, as the word makes me think of the N64 rumble-pack. Most of you potential buyers are already aware of the wheel pulling you out of turns, or giving enough feedback so you know just when you’re about to lose grip through a corner. But the G25 can be so subtle that it almost creates a “3D” feedback map. I’m not sure how to explain it, but when your in-game left rear tire hits a rumble strip, it feel like that specific tire has really hit a rumble strip. I have no idea how they do this with just two force motors in the G25. The best wheel on the market by far.
