There was a photo of the PD studio with the G27 box so it's pretty much a certainty. Really want to get that wheel but it's just too much. :(

Edit - Overclockers has it for £220, time to leech off daddy and place an order.
Don't worry I will pay him back in 4 years when I'm charging patients £400 for a root canal :p
I can afford the G27 but it just seems like ridiculous money to spend on a video game peripheral.

I'm waiting for a price drop ala Play.com G25 @ £99.99. Even if it goes down to £150 I'd be happy to buy it. But £220? Eurgh.

Is this a sign? PLEASE GOD

Nope, GT sponsors many races so you see stickers on different cars. There have been GT stickers on Porsche's since the late 90's. EA has the exclusive license for Porsche and Criterion has already confirmed on their Twitter that Porsche will be exclusive to NFS.

Logitech Driving Force GT
~€100-125

The official wheel. Great price-quality. Great wheel for the average gamer.

Logitech G25 or G27
~€200-250

The bigger brother. The sim racer's favorite.

Fanatec Porsche GT3
~€300-350

The elite wheel. The pic doesn't show a stick shifter, but it's an optional accessory.

Has anyone tested the Logitech Driving Force GT? I am really considering buying it but I am not very comfortable with the price..so it should be very good :/

That's real life...


Or is it just fantasy?

Shame about Porshe not being in GT. But I can't really say I'm a Porshe fan so... :lol

There has been lots of Porsches with that GT-branded windshield, it's no indications at all sadly :(

It's a very good wheel. The FFB is near the level of a G25/G27. The downside is that the build quality isn't as high as those wheels (as you'd expect). That's not to say that they're cheap and that they'll break easily though.

It's also the official wheel and the wheel that Polyphony has hooked up to their testing station.

Just got it and absolutely love it. The build quality is amazing as is the FF. Pedals are a bit plasticky but work still well.

Essential purchase with this wheel is the Wheelstand Pro. Best accessory ever. Now I can play from my low sofa just as if I was sitting on a car seat.

Watching this footage that Honda should be...'updated'...

Has this been confirmed to be in GT5? (2010 Honda HSV-10 Super GT500 class)

I'm totally ok with it having to be additional DLC if it doesn't make GT5's release =)

If PD starts updating to/adding premium cars through DLC I'll be extremely pissed.


Cause I'll be buying every single one of them and I don't wanna spend that kinda money

I guess the term 'DLC' generally infers '$$$$' in a way, but I'm trying to say it being available as some type of download/add-on/update/etc if it doesn't make GT5's release (free or otherwise...free would be great though =).

I hope they continue to do what they did with GT5 Prologue and keep the game updates free but charge for the extra stuff not directly related to the game like the GT-TV.

I think that's pretty much a given.
 

ULTROS!

People seem to like me because I am polite and I am rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks.
Damn, GT5 looks almost like reality. :lol

Tried to play Forza 3 to hold me over till Gran Turismo 5. It's just not the same.

You're right, two different games. I say if you want a true sim racer go for Iracing for PC, but you wont since you're just trying to get a rise out of someone.
