I've had a lot of fun playing with this little sucker today.Frankly, I didn't think I'd like it very much. I requested it before I realized what it was. I thought it was a steering wheel with a steering column you attach to a desk, similar to my Logitech Driving Force steering wheel. It's actually an accelerometer... and you hold the wheel, unattached to anything, and with no feedback, just rotate it. The pedals are large paddles, and the gear shifters are smaller clicky paddles. I've played Mario Kart with a wiimote, and thought it was a bit of a gimmick, so I expected this to be the same. It's really much better, though. For one, the accuracy is excellent. Despite the lack of feedback, this is a precise way to steer. I can adjust the sensitivity with a knob, so with a couple of adjustments, I was getting the car to do exactly what I want. The way they designed the 'pedals' (paddles) makes for very accurate braking and throttle, so I can...

I am a gamer, have been a gamer for almost as long as I can remember. Right now, I currently game most on my PC, but I also own a Wii so the concept of steering and whirling around a detached controller is pretty second nature to me. This is a niche product for a niche market kind of game that I think will work with some other games, but I haven't had a chance to check those out just yet. I mention this because I found the simraceway game to have a pretty steep learning curve in that there really is no apparent tutorial that I could find. There are testing tracks and ways to practice, but they leave a lot to be desired. It was fun of course. It has been a long time since I tried to sink my teeth into a racing game, and I am probably a hardcore gamer by definition, just not in this area. Some things to note, this controller came without a disc which means you have to download the game from the website. Not only that, in order to get the game, you have to sign... Read more Excellent wheel with a dizzying array of controls, By This review is from: SteelSeries Simraceway SRW-S1 Gaming Steering Wheel (Personal Computers) Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program ( What's this?) If you're a Formula 1 or an Indycar fan then this is definately a wheel to consider. I'm a big Formula 1 fan and have been looking for a wheel that duplicates the controls of an actual Formula 1 wheel for a while. Well this is it. The wheel is very sturdilly made and the buttons, dials and controls on the wheel are large enough and spaced far apart enough that you don't mistakenly push a button or turn a dial by mistake. The sheer number of buttons and settings this wheel has really does make it feel like you are using a Formula 1 wheel and you quickly realize just what a Formula 1 driver has to go through during a race. You have the pit lane speed limiter button, launch control, request pit in, front brake balance, rear brake balance and on and on. Then there are the dials allowing you set such things as anti-lock brakes, shift sensitivity, clutch, traction control etc. (I know a lot of these are currently banned on a Formula 1 car but this wheel is not just for Formula 1...
