I have only used the mad catz wheel. It was ok but I wouldn't buy it myself. I am holding out for a wheel with force feedback. One has to be coming out soon, or we can only hope.

I have the Mad Catz wheel & assem & it has force feedback. You must turn it on in setings when wheel is hookedup,but the feedback wont work with 4*4 EVO 2.

umm no it doesn't

the mad catz web page states "Vibration feedback", that is not force feedback.

Force feedback is noticeable in the turning of the wheel, if you come out of a big turn, like a nascar track turn, then the wheel has resistance on it. The mad catz wheel doesn't do that, you can turn it either direction with out resistance at any time.

I just picked up the little controller sized racing wheel. It's unique, and fun, and much cheaper than a full sized wheel. I'd recomend it if you aren't a real serious racer.

Yea i hear ya Bundy, force feed back would kick some serious ass!

Hopefully they come out with a racing wheel like that then racing games would be totally off the chain :cool:

Untill next time...:mad:
