Logitech G-25 Bulkbuy - Force Feedback Steering Wheel With Clutch + 6sp Gated Shifter

[R33_Beast]

Ok this is for all the simulation and car game enthusiasts out there. I've started up a BulkBuy thread for the new Logitech G-25 steering wheel. It's the first of its kind in having a true Clutch and 6 speed gated shifter, in addition to paddle shift and the usual force feedback etc.

The more interest we get, the more likely a bulkbuy can occur, and the cheaper the wheel will become...and current retail is as high as $500 so this quality wheel aint cheap.

You can't always drive your skyline 24 hours a day so this is one of the most realistic alternatives available.

Tell all your friends and family! You can voice your interest in this thread:

which games actually support a game with a clutch, and how realistic is the clutch in gameplay? as in, is it an i/o clutch or is it analogue? this would be an awesome wheel even if only a few games support it. i drive an auto stagea, so this would be fantastic.

I reckon live for speed would support it..

ALso - GTR 2 will support it..

[R33_Beast]

Yep any of those simulation games generally have true clutch support ie. Live For Speed, GTR, GTR2, GT Legends, rFactor etc. You always have the option of semi-auto or paddle shift for the usual games like Need For Speed Underground 2, Most Wanted, Test Drive Unlimited etc etc.

Show your interest on the BulkBuy thread guys!

need to make one for the sony or the x-box. then all you'd need is a good drifting game so you could go up to a corner, kick the clutch and start some sliding fun.

Try rFactor with the V8Factor mod. I use paddle shift for gear changes (auto clutch) however the clutch works well to get out of sand bunkers. The auto clutch boggs down and you rev stall a lot to get out.

Both can be set up at once.

i know what i want for christmas!!

[BreathLess]

Just bought one of these, all i can say is its great, and one the side of the box it says its usealbe with a PS2 and xbox yay

cheers

[nice 28]

Have you tried using it on the xbox?

I'm pretty sure that it's not compatible, but hey please prove me wrong.

Would be more of an incentive to buy one.

I think most of them in aus are sold out anyway.

How is the bulk buy coming along??

[BreathLess]

i haven't tried it on xbox or ps2 yet but one the box it says it works with them yet to try. maybe tomorrow

[nice 28]

BreathLess,

if you could check and tell me if it works on xbox, that would be great.

Thanks

so how is the feel compared to the GT pro? is the clutch any good? does it have an e-brake? im wrapped with my gt pro though its a real pain when you need to pop the clutch and use e-brake when your in the middle of cornering cause the buttons are on the wheel itself.

[BreathLess]

It doesnt have a E-brake, tryed it on the Ps2 with GT4 it works fine but has to be in Sequenal mode real shame, yet to try it on the xbox its lying around somewhere havnt used it in a while, i go looking for that box it might be under the bed or in the shed get it out give it ago.

The pedals are firm not soft and springy too.

Now where's that xbox

I just picked up the G25 and have been using with GTR2 and all i can say is it is far better than any other wheel i have ever used. The cluth and brake both feel quite good and the clucth works well in GTR2. Shops are competing for sales now and i got mine for $375. I saw them for $500 6 weeks ago.

Owww noes... the pedals look like a left hand drive setup. gas / brake / / clutch

Is there an Aust. Right hand drive clutch / / brake / gas set up? Need to heal & toe right!

are you on crack?

Doesn't matter if the car is a lhd or rhd the pedals are the same...

[geno8r]

maybe you're the one on crack

See.... the gas & brake pedals are the same, then you have a little extra space between the brake & clutch pedal. & this img above is in lhd.

If you heal & toe you'd know that here in Aust. we control both gas & brake pedal with our right foot, & then have a little extra space between the brake & clutch.

So with the lhd img above I'd have to twist my right foot much more than a typical comfortable level to heal & toe. Doop

See how the pedal on the right is thinner and longer? now go to your car and check how your pedal looks like and come here and post Thats the accelerator

so it is Clutch |||| Brake |||| Accelerator

The positioning may be weird but the pedals are in the right order lol

haha yeah I know what you mean, I just wish the spacing was better between the gas & brake pedals
