UNIVERSAL RACING WHEEL
1 Worst Product EVER
DO NOT waste your money or bull crap like this.
I have to say one thing, and one thing only:
Logitec is the best and will remain the best company to make stering wheels. If you don't believe me than (...) ya'll.
2 An Adult's Review
I have never bought a racing wheel but like the other reviews have already said, the $10 wheel was cheap enough to try out. Maybe I got a defective wheel (I'm in the process of getting a replacement) but the wheel did not work with Grand Turismo 4 as advertised. There was some sort of loss of acceleration going on with the pedal or with the "X-Button" on the wheel. I could not get the wheel or pedals to work. I made sure that the analog sticks were working fine on the dual-shock controller and that was working just fine. Like I said, I may have gotten a defective wheel but with the other reviews in, I say this thing is a piece of junk. Let the buyer beware....
3 Don't buy this, its really garbage.
This is the most hideous thing I've ever used. I got it for 10 dollars with Gran Turismo 4, and I'm upset it cost that much. If you haven't ever driven a car in your life, or been in one, this may seem sub par to you. If you drive, forget it.
While driving with it, you start swerving from side to side, with no control at all. You correct it, but no, it just whips you in the other direction. I've had more fun playing with just the stock controller then this thing.
And the pedals are supposed to be analogue (emphasis on supposed). With the regular controller, you have much precise control over the gas and brake functions of the car. With this its STOP GO LEFT RIGHT. THATS IT. Its a total hunk of junk.
Even though I only spent ten dollars on it, I just want to let everyone know "DO NOT BUY THIS".
Go with the more expensive Logitech Driving Force Pro. Its more expensive for a reason - *gasp* it works! Yes, it really does work!
4 fun r us
this wheel is sooo cool when i turn right it goes right!!! when i turn left it goes left!!!!! i cant belive this thing its SOOOOO Sweeeeeettttt every one should have one itsss sooo fun!!!!!
5 fun r us
this is a sweet wheel!!!! its fun as hell!!!! (i dont own one)
6 THIS STINKS!!!!
The pedals stopped working after 30 minutes!!
Never buy this for anyone!!
It is the Worst toy ever!!!!
7 Mediocre Indeed
I bought this for my son and he said it was good but it looks fairly average and really may not be worth bothering as for bit more you can buy a better one that is better than this one.
Overall. The wheel is average.
Beanstalks.
8 Poor quality !!!! Not worth $1
I bought this as a Christmas gift and how disappointing this was to my 12 yr old daughter!!! It stopped working after about an hour of play. At first, it was just almost impossible to keep control of the car and then it wouldn't steer straight. Then it just stopped working within a hour of playing!!! Very disappointing. DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!
9 Steering column broke on the first day.
My son got this Intec Racing Wheel for Christmas this year. He (we) are using it with his X-Box. Overall it's pretty fun, but very different from playing with the standard controller. You'll have a small learning curve.
The disappointing thing was the locking lever for the tilt function broke the first day of play. Now the wheel won't lock into any position. Back to the store! We'll consider a more expensive wheel hoping that it will be stronger.
It's a good wheel, just be gentle with it!
10 Sweet Toy
yo yo yo,you gotta get this toy .1: the handling is crazy good espesially da turns and i lov da grip
peace out homies
11 Disappointed 10 year old Gamecube Player
Watch out if you own a GameCube. The G5285 model...with 7 buttons across the top DOES NOT have the vibrations and the pedals don't work on GC. You have to get the new and improved version. It's not until you read the instruction manual CLOSELY that you see these functions work only for PS2 and other systems. Now we take our three sons back to the store to spend the additional money to upgrade to a more expensive model. I don't see the new and improved model on the Toys website but it is the one on the Toys site isn't even on the manufacturer's site.
12 Question
Where do you get a wheel for PS2 and good for need for speed underground. If you know where to get one please e-mail it to me Vianne10@aol.com
13 Realistic!!!
It is very realistic!! It works like a real steering wheel!! It has a great price. ...I love it you have to get this steering wheel!!
14 Save your money!!!
I gave it one star only b/c it won't accept less! This wheel is JUNK!!! Reaction time is slow,control is almost non-existant. Gas pedal works on circuit, but not on drag. Steering lock begins at the 10 and 2 positions,and by then you are way out of control. Spend your cash on something else.
15 good wheel if you are short on cash
I bought this wheel for 40 bucks because it was cheap enough for me to get. the others were 100-150 bucks. i have had the wheel for about a week know. and it worked fine until yesterday. i used the teloscopic zoom on the wheel to make it closer to my body. instead the wheel broke clean off the base and it is just dangeling there. i will return it and buy another wheel. buy this wheel if you are short on mony. if you are looking for a great wheel, get the gran turismo wheel. it has a shifter and evrything. overall, ii give this wheel 3 stars.
16 WORSE product ever
I bought this wheel on 01/02/03 and it was BAD!! It worked for Need For Speed Underground but it was very hard to control the cars. It was good to play drifting but circuit, sprint, and drag ..... was not easy. When I first tried it, I couldn't even make the car go straight. I advise you NOT to but this wheel. This wheel will waste ur time....
17 ????
I'm looking online at websites of stores in Northern Virginia that might have PS2 racing wheels that can work with the game Need For Speed Underground cause playing that game with a controller is not very comfortable bacause you always have to hold the X button to accelerate so I wana get a wheel so it would be more comfortable to play. Also, if you know where I can get a good wheel that works for Need For Speed, please e-mail me and tell me !!
18 Steering sensitivity problem
I have to turn the wheel from noon to 10 o'clock or more to get any response. When it does respond it over reacts. Not realistic at all. I went to the web site (hoping to find a way to adjust the steering sensitivity) and found no support outside a very simple (and short) FAQ. Wife bought for Xmas. I'll be bringing it back tomorrow. Bummer...
19 not what i expected
I BOUGHT MINE AT TOYSRUS, BECAUSE IT'S ALL THEY HAD FOR GAMECUBE. NOT WHAT I EXPECTED, OH WELL! IT WAS ONLY 40 BUCKS, I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN BETTER, THE GAME I TRIED IT WITH WAS AUTO MODELLISTA, BIG MISTAKE! I'M HAVING MY WIFE RETURN IT FIRST THING TOMORROW.
20 Like really driving a car!
This steering wheel is really fun! But you can't make the sharp ,sharp turns!
21 A deep driver
This is a simple wheel, just a wheel and 2 pedals. However, it is effective enough to win games. I like it, because it helps me to get score and medals, cars.
The rubber handle is soft and fit to palms. Longer you play, more you like it. Foot pedals are O.K., but not heavy enough. It slips, but is acceptable.
22 racing wheel
this wheel is great. the only problem i have with it is that it has a big deadzone. works on every racing game i own. takes a long time to get used to. recomend starting with it.
23 cyber racing wheel
This wheel is a great wheel!! You should get it. It is definetly wourth the 40 bucks! The only problem is that it has a big deadzone, but otherwise it is a good wheel.
24 Do not buy
I am just about fed up with this wheel. There is little response when being turned. I do not suggest this wheel in anyway.
25 Need help with this wheel
I cannot seem to make this wheel work with Gamecube. I've tried it with HotWheels Velocity X and the game simply doesn't seem to respond to the wheel at all. I have it attached, with the Gamecube adapter, to controller slot #1. If anyone knows how to make this work, I'd really appreciate a comment being left here. Thank you.
26 This Wheel is garbage
I juz got this wheel today and i'll be taking it back as soon as i can get back to the store. It has resistance, but so little that it is almost imperceivable. That gets so irritating because you aren't able to get full control. ! Dont buy this wheel! NO RESISTANCE! very little force feedback.
27 Cyber racing wheel
The Cyber Racing Wheel is the best. You will love this racing wheel as soon as you get home or bring it home. If you have something by intec this will be the best because I have thousands of things by intec and this one is the best. So I advise you to get The Cyber Racing Wheel!!.
28 PS2 racing wheel
This wheel is da-bomb! It is really fun to play with ....especially when your playing a car racing game!!
