• I LOVE the IDEA
  I love racing games and have played for years using standard controllers. I decided to try a sterring wheel and determine if it would be worth the trouble.

But the communicator problem is serious, and I've heard other owners of the Mad Catz wheel complain about the same problem. I haven't... more info
