I�m looking for a wheel that works with Playstation 2 and PC too. Some people said that the Logitech Wingman Formula Force GP do that task, but in my country is very difficult to find that gadget. The only wheel easy too find around here is the Microsoft�s one. But it works on PS2 too?

I don't know if it does; the only one that I think does is the Logitech you mentioned. You can't even order one and get it shipped overseas?

Then try it damnit! ;) Anyway, the PS2 Logi and the PC Logi are the same thing w/ different colors. Thanks, Alex "d.willand" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:a0erj3$c90$[email hidden]... > Im looking for this too....ive got a PS2 and a logi wheel but im not sureif

Depends on which PS2 Logi. The first one, Gran Turismo 3 edition, is identical to the red PC wheel except it uses gears instead of belts. The new one just plain SUCKS. I saw one at a store the other day, the wheel itself is different, and it generally has a much cheaper feel to it. They changed the shifters, too. I wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole, especially since I've heard it won't work on the PC. Milhouse "Alex Kihurani" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:0KGW7.11160$[email hidden]...

Hello, This depends on the software. If the title in question uses Immersion's latest SDK, then the ACT LABS Force RS will work with the PC and the PS2 with the single USB cartridge. The problem is that not all racing titles to date for the PS2 have used the latest SDK.

The problem is that not >all racing titles to date for the PS2 have used the latest SDK. I have a ForceRS with all the bits but I've heard the GT3-A-spec doesn't support this wheel, right? (otherwise I'm going to bring it home for a test). Ruud van Gaal Free car sim : http://www.marketgraph.nl/gallery/racer/ Pencil art : http://www.marketgraph.nl/gallery/
Raymond have you done any testing with your wheel and the PS2? Your statement is very interesting. I have read more than a few postings saying that your wheels do not work with GT3 and any other PS2 racing titles that support the Logitech and Thrustmaster wheels. Do you know of any specific titles that do work with the Act-Labs? "Raymond, ACT LABS" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:<[email hidden]>...

Sinjin I read your review of the Thrustmaster and yes it is a fine wheel, but are you 100% sure it works with Grand Theft Auto 3? The game has no wheel support AFAIK and I doubled checked with my Logitech wheel, no dice. If the Thrusmaster works with GTA3 that would be big news (Sinjin) wrote in message news:<[email hidden]>...> Thrustmaster NASCAR PRO does both.
