Racing games

My brother decided he wants to buy a steering wheel to go with a racing game, and since I'm more into gaming he has set me with the task of giving him the shopping list. Should I recommend him to buy a PS2 just for that? I've done my homework and reached the conclusion that the Driving Force Pro is the wheel to get (and it works with both PC and PS). Buying a PS2 obviously costs more, but from what I could find the PlayStation 2 has much better racing games; GT4, Burnout 3, Midnight Club etc. as opposed to GTR 2, Race 07 and DiRT. Now, it may just be me, but the playstation games just look cooler; the PC ones are more meh-ish. What's your take on this? Did I miss any other good PC racing games?

(PS - I tried to ask already, but does anybody know if it's possible to connect two steering wheels to the same PS2 for split-screen multiplayer?)

Thanks!

Thanks for replying! However, since my problem with buying a PS2 is money, the 360 only makes it worse... and since the original XBox was discontinued along with it's peripherals, I think it'll be more convinient to stick with the PS2 (which also has Burnout, Midnight club, and Need For Speed).

If he's going to spend a good amount of time playing it then yes it's worth the money to get it for him. If it's something that he might drop after a few weeks of playing then it's not worth wasting the money. But that's up to you to decide if it's a quick fad or something he'll spend time with and enjoy. That's the hard part of all this.
