    Locating the bat in the zone would be the most challenging thing EVER! Although I suppose it WOULD be easier to "steer" my runners around the bases...

      Eh, only good it would do for me is help steer some of my fellow Mets players to the DL.

        What he said makes no sense what so ever.
        While I agree with what you are saying, I think his point was, if you are going to spend $50 on this controller, why not save a little more and spend an extra $50 for the best experience you will get for a racing game in the wheel. Considering that is the only use this controller would really get.

          In may case I would be spending $100+ on a wheel for which I would only be playing 1 racing game. I like the aim nature of the game but, don't have the space to have a actuall wheel. So a controller would work for me better than a wheel. Im not worried about money I'm worried about space.

            Ditto. Plus, $50 can be a lot of money for some of us... and I'd rather spend that money on something else. Hell, I might as well just keep putting $50 aside until I save up about $40,000... then I could just buy one of the cars for myself and be done with it

              Trust me when I say it will change the way you play racing games, especially sim games, when you use a wheel. Every car feels different and gives different feedback. From the road vibrations to the torque, to the jerking of losing control. It is astonishing. Something that is so hard to describe, but if ever experienced, you would never use a control again for racing.
              Good sales job! You put me over the edge. I ordered one from Amazon last night. Now I just have to figure out where to mount it. I'm now looking at the Xlerator Wheel Stand but they're out of stock!

                Oh, and another thing. I was all poised to pick up NFS: Hot Pursuit 2 as I like arcade racers as well but then found out to my disappointment that it doesn't support the GT Racing Wheel! That was a major bummer and I had to take it out of my cart.

                  Trust me, I have no stake in anything as far as the wheel sales go. I just am totally honest with people when I say GT was meant to be played with a wheel. It is a totally different game.

                    I noticed some wheels have a rumble feature and some dont. Is the rumble feature worth the extra money?

                      It is for feeling yourself go over all the bumps in the road, etc.

                      I would not get anything less than a Logitech GT for this game personally.

                          Thanks for the heads up.

                          Looks like a promising controller for racing games for those who mentioned they have no room to set up a wheel. Straighter racing lines, and smoother throttle and breaking, sounds like a real winner for a controller!

                            That's what I'm thinking. Still debating on getting a wheel. I would have to move my 60 inch flat screen and home theater setup to get one though. This controller could be for me if I don't get a wheel and move everything.

                                It is an excellent wheel for the price, and when places like Amazon have specials to get it for $99.99 or less, it is WELL worth it!
