Hi there, in 3 days, my girly is getting me one of those steering wheels.
I already had the package delivered to my house, and offcourse had to test it briefly (30 min ) for waranty issues.
First I started off with Gran Turismo 3 a spec. Spent some time spinning out after every attempt to drift.

1. car starts sliding
2. counter-steer + nearly every move you can make with the accellerator
3. IIIIIIIIIIIIIIH! -> spin out/crash
4. got nowhere trying to do that.

After spending 10 min crashing, i decided that i should try my GT4 - Bmw demo. Started on the Nordschleiffe. First corner, YES, YES! this is how it should be!

1. car starts sliding
2. counter-steer + some messing with the accellerator
3. Drifting..............
4. Big smile!


Completely different feel when you got 900 degrees of freedom. That's the major problem of (almost?) all those other wheels. They got only 200 degrees or motion, which is realy realy pathetic once you tried 900 degrees. It actualy kinda reminded me of the real thing. This guy is a happy one for probably the next couple of months. Specialy when the new GT4 enters stores/the internet

Now i'm only looking for more games that support the 900 degrees function. Should give LFS (Live For Speed) another try on my PC. Heard they got their physic models nearly perfect. Life is good!

I just got that same steeringwheel last friday. I hope to find some time tonight to drive a couple op hours, with GT4 BMW demo, CMR05, and other racinggames.

Gt4 seems to be the only ps2 game yet that supports the 900 degrees. Live for Speed for the pc is also very recommended. Did you find a way to remove the time-limit from the bmw demo? I followed all the steps, but couldn't get it to work. Mabey it's because my ps2-mod doesn't accept 80min cd's. Anyway, if you succeeded in removing the limit please let me know!

I want one!! Gotta have one at home the second GT4 is released!

Where did you get a copy of the GT4 BMW demo? I've been looking for it.

Best Regards,

From Jesse P. He works at a BMW Dealer, so he send me the DVD

If you do the ripping correctly their is only 400MB to put back on a CD, so a 74min cdr wil do the job.

ja dat weet ik, maar je kan tegenwoordig alleen nog maar 80min cd's kopen.
Wat ik echt zou willen is dat je het op een dvd kan zetten. Mijn ps2 heeft moeite met het lezen van m'n bootmagic (cd versie)

@Senna,

Zie url, is niet mogelijk het op dvd te fikken
