When drag racing and you're in 11th gear, and your challenger is still right alongside you, you just put your foot down on the pedal hard and suddenly you get that extra boost you need to win the race and impress viewers.
EDIT: I'm pretty sure at least. I've learned everything I know about racing from The Fast and the Furious.
Why would you go again for logitech if they burn you like that?
It would be neat to have a rumble feature in the pedal setup at least. It would make racing games a tiny bit more immersive getting that type of feedback through your feet/legs when running up the arse of another car at corners etc.
I feel we are going to pay $850 for this in NZ

Nah I would probably go for Thrustmaster, but I wouldn't really like to buy any new wheel at this point.

Don't forget the DFGT as well!
If they were developing compatibility for G25/G27/DFGT, there'd be no need for these new wheels.
It's not happening.

I know, sadly. Quite disappointing. Will not be buying another wheel when I have a perfectly good one sitting here not getting used.
Great for first wheel buyers, though.
Not really. What makes you say that?

Is that leather-leather? I'm a vegan, and that's a no-no for me.
I think I explained it right there.

Damn thats alot of money.. Ive never had one and want one for Forza 6
This wheel doesn't sound much different from previous wheels. And the naming keeps it in the same family. I'd guess that the drivers are probably warmed over DFGT/G27 drivers.
If Logitech aren't talking about that, then it is more because they want the focus to be on their new wheel for the moment. I hope we'll hear more once games get patched for it.

Damn shame.
Was hoping Logitech would create a PC/XBO/PS4 wheel at extra cost. Don't want to buy two wheels and have to unbolt one from the rig just to play Forza, then unbolt that and remount the PS4 one just to play Gran Turismo.
I bought the Fanatec PWTS for this reason which worked on PC/360/PS3. Please Thrustmaster, do something.
I believe Fanatec have an incredibly expensive solution. If I stumble across a pot of gold I may go that route but until then please, I want to have one rig to play PC and the consoles, am I the only one? I'm not a PC/PS4 or PC/Xbox person.

Because neither console manufacturer lets to you use a rim that has the "wrong" face buttons.
Look into the Fanatec CSW v2 for their solution to this dumb restriction.

OK neogaf, from those above three links, do you think the g29 will work on PC?

I'd wager that G27 support will happen on the quiet, but not the other two.
If this was the NDA item in patch 1.4, then patch 1.4 can now finally be released..?

I'm gonna buy the G29 as soon as Sony announces the next Gran Turismo.
I'm not a big fan of racing games, but Gran Turismo is a completely different story
King of all racing games.

Easily circumvented in any number of ways for anyone with the most basic of product design skills.
Hell, my old Fanatec GT2 has buttons that light up with different symbols depending which mode it's in.
G29 game steering wheel is designed for the latest racing games for your PlayStation®4 or PlayStation®3 console. G29 Driving Force also works on your PC using Logitech Gaming Software.
From the last link. I'd say yea. Both look to be PC compatible.
Kinda ridiculous they don't just come with stickers or some shit or a little swappable faceplate that labels the buttons according to what system you have.
THIS!
why PS3 and PS4, would much rather XBONE and PS4 and PC!
It's just horrible having too many pheripherals.

It simply makes sense.
After all these years -> New model = Profit
PS4 support for the old models = less profit, because people don't have to buy the new G29
