Logitech's Driving Force GT is a gaming wheel designed for use with Sony's PS2 and PS3 consoles only. So, apart from the wheel and pedals, you'll find all the usual control buttons that you find on the usual gamepads. Build quality is stellar, and you won't be scared to perform some aggressive driving maneuvers with it. A nice touch is the backlit GT logo in the centre of the wheel.

Setup is easy, and there is one power adapter and two cables that you have to connect. It does have to be mounted on a steady table, for which there are sturdy plastic mounts. The pedals have non-slip pads for floor use and spikes for carpet use. The brake pedal offers some resistance, which feels more realistic. The powerful force feedback that it offers in a crash or when you get nudged by another car is addictive. It even offers resistance while just turning, just like in a real car. Something unique is the real-time adjustment dial, using which you can control settings like traction control in GT5.

It's not compatible with every racing game, but it does support a lot from the PS2 and PS3 catalogue. Popular supported games on the PS2 include Gran Tourismo 4, Flat Out, Midnight Club 3 DUB Edition, TOCA Race Driver, Burnout Series, Colin McRae series and F1 series, to name a few. While on the PS3, it is supported on Gran Tourismo 5, Midnight Club Los Angeles, the Need for Speed series, Burnout Paradise, DiRT and Ridge Racer 7 to name a few. You can check out the complete list on the Logitech website before you buy, to make sure that your favorite game is supported.

The only things I didn't like were the hard to press paddle shifts behind the wheel and the permanently mounted sequential-style gearshift. It's mounted on the right hand side of the wheel, which falls more naturally to the hand for those used to left hand drive cars. With a PS3 and a good projector or large screen TV, Logitech's Driving Force GT injects a large dose of reality into the gaming fix that is hard to explain. A must-have for racing fans.
