Well, it depends upon how patient you are. Also, this might not apply
since it doesn't appear to cater to your current tastes in driving
games. However, the buzz re the Act Labs RS force-feedback wheel is a Q1
release date. This wheel is supposed to retail around $99 US, less than
a Nascar wheel in most places. This would seem to be a good purchase
nontheless, as more and more driving games should include force-feedback
ability. This is the single reason for my having broken down and
purchased CPR, albeit a used copy for $30. That and the supposed release
of the patch for CPR. Maybe these two factors will make CPR into a
decent driving experience instead of creating flashbacks from Power F1
and X-Car. Another reason for considering an Act Labs RS force-feedback
wheel is rumors of a force-feedback patch being considered for F1RS. Now
this is what I'm talkin' 'bout...
The reason for mentioning this wheel is that you asked for some
feedback... get it?
Happy Holidays,
