wheel thingy with pedals
Hey all...I am thinking of getting a good steering wheel to go along with the Grid release, and I wanted to see what you guys may recommend? I have a few other wheels I like, but they won't work with my 360.
I've read reviews of the Microsoft one, Logitech FX, and the Joytech. I didn't find any others that seemed worth a flip other than those..
Thanks!!

I have the MS one and it works really well. Plus its wireless (excpet the power unless you use batteries)
I cant speak for the others as I have not yet tried them,

i have the wireless MS one. its really nice but you have to find some way of bracing the pedals. also it is wireless if you choose to unplug the power cord BUT it will not be force feedback when it is wireless.

Thanks Snowy. I had planned to somehow secure the pedals, as I had did the same with my Logitech wheel for my PS2 and PC when I made a makeshift cockpit (it's so hideous looking, I wont even post any pics of it  ) since the plastic is so lightweight and flimsy...

MS wireless by far. It's a solid wheel with great feedback, easy to mount or sits comfortably on your lap and an all-round great wheel.
The only wheel I'd prefer over it is the Logitech G25 and I don't think it's compatible with the 360.

Ok, l did get a wheel, although I got it off ebay. I got overnight shipping, and it came today, and I have yet to try it out. But I noticed the table clamp was missing  . So, how easy or hard will it be for me to get a replacement part? I am not even sure I can get one. I imagine I will have to call Xbox, but I am sure I'll be on hold for forever
