I was wondering, since i've never had a chance to play any racing games with a wheel, is it better in terms of being better then the guy with the regular controller in his hands. I am curious if it will give me an edge and if it made you guys a better driver in PGR or any other racing games ? i am very tempted specially now that Forza 2 is coming out in a month. Thanks

I'm sure its better, but its really expensive. The Microsoft wireless racing wheel is $150 US! Its probably an awesome experience, but that seems a bit much to spend on one game. It also might be a little more difficult at first if you are used to using a controller, probably alot more sensitive.

Its a bit more immersive, but its not a better experience overall since there's nothing like a controller for being able to sit how and where you want. With the steering wheel you'll have to clamp it to something or push the suction cups down onto a table and play in that position, personally that's not what I like to do.
