I forgot to mention this the other day, but Logitech are releasing 2 new wheel / pedal bundles which will replace the G27.

 

The G29 is for PS4, PS3 and PC.

The G290 is for the xbox one and PC

 

Both are 900 deg wheels with full force feedback and brake pedal feedback.

 

Looks like I'll finally have a wheel I can use for both Project Cars and Assetto Corsa  thumbsup

the FFB base is the same as the G27.. ive no idea why anywone would pay £100 - £150 over paying for a G27, for £300 you can get a T300 which uses belt driven force feedback.. i suppose the only reason would be the cross platform but i think the T300 works on PS4 but would have to check.

I have an Xbox One,, so my wheel options are currently rather limited. The Fanatic base + wheel is stupid money, so not an option for me.

 

With Assetto Corsa coming to the xbox one (and PS4), I've now made up my mind that I'll be getting one of these G290 wheels later this year.

I've also cleared it with the wife that I can buy one of these and use it in the living room on our 55" screen with full surround http://www.amazon.co.../dp/B009ZELZDS

 

Excited!!!!  :groupjump:

I'll be interested in a G290 when they are released as well.

Those playseats are perfect for us living room console guys too. The wheel and pedals stay attached to the framet, and the whole thing folds up like a deckchair and goes in the cupboard :thumbsup:
