My wife has put forth a challenge, if i can loose 16 KG by my birthday (sept 4th) she will overcome her hatred for the 360 and buy me the Wireless Force feedback Wheel.I was on the fence about getting it myself but now i'm stoked and cant wait.. but it made me wish there was more support for it , and i'm not just talking about existing and future racing games but non racing games that have vehicles in them like Saints Row, Crackdown, GTA IV... hell even Halo 3 here's how i see it working : start off with your control pad and have the Wheel setup as 2nd player or whatever .. when your on foot use the control pad as you normally would.. as soon as you hop in a ride, drop it in your lap and grab the wheel and away you go... gear shift could be used to either shoot out the sides,change radio stations or handbrake.. what ya'll think? i personally think MS should be offering incentives for developers to support the first party perh..peri... frickit... stuff... like that damn vision cam .. which is starting to feel like a waste of dough..
I don't think the benefits outweigh the cost of development.
Seriously, not that many people would use the feature.
Deyee
well i would, and your right, it would cost too much for the developers to consider it, which is why i think M$ should front the bill or even pay developers to patch in wheel support for their older games... it will increase demand for not only for the wheel but for the 360 versions of games in general.. and thus the 360 itself.. edit: Or they should offer discounted licensing costs when developers add in features for 360 perhipials (SP?)
It would be possible to easily add that feature to any game that has vehicles... they could have the option to turn it on or off for people without the wheel or who just don'twant to do it. IT shouldn't be that hard to setup a control scheme for the racing wheel. I think that is a very good idea and would add some freshness. You should try to tell some people who actually develop the games. It's not gonna get heard here.Â
