Jeez when will we be able to play Forza and Dirt with this wheel:confused:

Last news I heard is it was @ ICASA for approval. Guess I am in for a long wait.

PS:@Gavin. Will I be able to use the wheel on my pc using the M$ wireless receiver?
 
Not to snub MSoft, but I rather prefer the controllers from Logitech. At least they don't decide out of the blue one day to discontinue their gaming line like MSoft did a couple of years back.
 
I think so yes ( Wireless receiver + Wheel ). I am currently very tempted to order the wheel from down under but I am scared of the tax duties on it.

I guess waiting is the best bet. :(
 
omfg Mannion, we expect you to know EVERYTHING about console gaming. If you can't provide a DEFINITIVE answer IMMEDIATELY, we're all going to stop visiting your site, now and forever more.
 
I'll back you up there gav, my understanding is that that's exactly what the wireless receiver is for because the wired 360 controller already works on windows.

here you go:

As things stand with Windows XP, probably the most useful aspect of the Wireless Gaming Receiver is getting the 360 Racing Wheel to play nicely with the PC, since it's a pretty nice wheel.
 
Sweet :-)

I must admit Microsoft makes quality gaming peripherals.

I bought the receiver and the Xbox wireless controller is one of the best. Dirt and Lost Planet play really well using it.

Cant wait to get my hands on the steering wheel though.

Oh I almost forgot I'm selling my xbox today so I wont really need the wheel.

Thanks... I knew you would know ;)

Wisecrack why are you asking about a controller that you are not going to use because you are selling your xbox?

Seems strange?
