Think of it this way. I was insanely happy with Assetto Corsa back during Early Access, using only non mod content. I had never experienced a physics model like it, I had never experienced visuals like it (and back then I was only on a single monitor too, like the console users will have) and I couldn't believe the sounds - I mean the engines were good but what did it for me was the little clangs inside the cabin from belts etc when going over kerbs, the transmission whine, the backfires. I couldn't get over the detail of the circuits and how you could feel all the bumps. I could just get lost in driving until I ran out of fuel.
That was before Spa, Catalunya, Zandvoort, Brands Hatch and the Nordshleife. It was before the McLaren F1 GTR, Ford Escort, Ford GT40, Ruf RT12R and all the other cars that have come in the Dream Packs.
It was also before the numerous updates that have made the experience even better.
So while these days I make the most out of PC only features like Triple Screen and mods, I don't think console guys are going to be disappointed with the content Assetto Corsa provides, at least not for a while, but then more DLC will come anyway.
I have never used it with a pad so maybe some of that immersion and driving magic will be lost when not using a wheel, I'm not sure, but I know the wheel users are going to have a great time.
