compatibility with ff wheels

I am planning to buy a ff wheel w/pedals. First I thought the Microsoft Sidewinder ff wheel would be my choice but after reading messages in this ng I have doubts now..it seems that the Logitech wheel is preferred above the Microsoft one. Can anybody give me advice on these two. How about the games that are supported ( I have Driver, NFSHS, Colin McRae, Midtown Madness...) by these wheels ? Any info appreciated.. Ron

Hello, I am a little hurt that you didn't even mention our ACT LABS Force RS. I am not going to do a sales pitch on you, but at least consider our wheel with multi-platform compatibility, gear shifter support, metal based pedal unit, independent peddle axes, STRONG force feedback effects, and most of all, awesome service!!!!

C'mon Ray ... Ron had his spam guard on place Hena :)

Yep, but I am in The Netherlands, Europe and I've never seen an ACT product down here, that's why I didn't mention it... So don't feel hurt, after all I didn't shoot you... ];-) Raymond - ACT LABS heeft geschreven in bericht

Hello Ron, Once again, I am hurt that someone is buying a wheel and not considering our wheel, the ACT LABS Force RS. I was a customer of ACT LABS before I was staff. And believe me, I am so anal, I tried all three wheels and researched them to death before buying one. I have NFSHS and Midtown Madness too. The force feedback effects are not that great on either of these games. NFSHS seems to have gotten some forces "reversed," while the effects in Midtown Madness are virtually non-existent on all wheels. The ACT LABS has the BIGGEST motor of the three (I have opened up all of them) and therefore, has the strongest force effects. One game you have to check out is Rally Championship. That game rocks! While we're on the subject, does anyone else out there find the force effects in NFS3 more "accurate" than NFSHS? Raymond ACT LABS On Sun, 5 Dec 1999 17:08:53 +0100, "re_layer"

I saw this wheel at Fry's in Phoenix and was very impressed with the show model, not that I got to try it or anything. Tell me this, does it work with NASCAR3? Does it have USB capability? I suppose I could go look this up myself, but since you're around...

Vic The ACT wheel comes with a USB connector (a serial one too I think) I just read a review on the web of N3 and the reviewer was using his ACT Force RS (he said it worked great!) I ordered my ACT Force RS last week + the RS shifter and it should be in tommorrow!!!!! I can't wait :) Ivan Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.
