A wrenching struggle to decide on a wheel

A wrenching struggle to decide on a wheel

Ah, the torment felt when eye'ng
upon the wheels known to me now as
Act Labs and Andretti;

For one has better pedals
and the other maybe better grip,
but both would seem to suit me.

P'rhaps I'd serve myself to
read a little more 'bout both
to come to decision;

With shifter'd hand the Act Labs wins -
but wait: Andrettis' digital,
and may give more precision.

And Oh! my restless twitch is served
not by pondering Force Feedback,
of which MadCatz knows naught,

And struggle as I might to know if
FF is the way to go, I cannot seem to bring
myself to know it is, or not.

Andrew

wishing my flight yoke and pedals worked better for racing.

'Tis true, you see the agony
Of choosing a new wheel.
But in the end, my driving friend-
Search pricewatch for a deal.

(The Logitech Wingman FF is pretty nifty, btw :-)

But the actlabs is upgradable.

You know, Thrustmaster make some good wheels too, you might want to
consider them :-)

yeah and if the Logitech's breaks after a year you stuck with it.

and oh yeah, if you have the cash, Force Feedback IS the way to go, even if
you don't like it in ALL your games (and I don't know why you wouldn't) you
can turn it off, so then you have both options!

So Get the FF Act-Labs,
maybe The Guillemot Ferrari.

From what I hear,
these are the best

Logitech is good,
but break a pot, and your screwed.
