Anyone seen Interact's FF handheld mini-wheel?

8 posts by 6 people · 10 Feb 1999 - 12 Feb 1999

I saw that Interact now has a handheld mini-wheel with force feedback! It has the wheel on the side like an RC controller. It looks pretty cool, and it was only $29.99 at Babbage's. It certainly is a great alternative to gamers who can't afford a $180 FF wheel. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Remove "spam-jammer" to reply Galley Stuff You Gotta Have!

Sorta waiting to see some other brave soul give it a shot and post a review. I doubt it'll be replacing the TM Pro but might be neat for some stuff. -- Ken "If I went 'round claiming I was Emperor because some moistened bint lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away" - anonymous peasant Go #43 and #44! volksy (at) geocities (dot) com volksy (at) yahoo (dot) com

One limitation would seem to be that it requires DirectInput, so that rules out using it for older games like GP2, CART etc, doesn't it? :>I saw that Interact now has a handheld mini-wheel with force feedback!
