That's a load if I ever heard one.

If that's the case the G27 should cost somewhere north of $800, 900+. Fanatec's wheels should be well within the same price range as well -- just for the wheel alone, even moreso considering a few of the products can be used on any platform.
 

:banghead:

Come on Thrustmaster please port this amazing t500rs wheel to the xbox! I've been asking for this for a long time.

Ok rant over. I am glad xbox is getting more wheels to choose from now. Looks like I will have to pony up for a wheel for FM4 for sure now. So I am very glad TM is entering the xbox market. Hopefully this is a stepping stone to a t500rs port and getting the new shifter on xbox as well

Wonder when these new wheels will hit stores. I might just breakdown and grab one. Decisions....
 
What's with 90% of the companies not adding a clutch and a shifter to their wheel? They can makes two versions of the wheel: A standard wheel with throttle and brake, then another one, lets call it the premium, with a clutch and a shifter.

Standard may be $150-ish and the premium will be maybe $200-ish.

I can live without a clutch - and have only a squential shifter (most GT race cars do) but without force feedback I cant...
 
A clutch option with stick wouldn't really be in keeping with a wheel mimicking the 458's wheel.
 
Should I still be asking the question:

Which wheel do I get for an XBox360 / FM4 ? I currently have a G25 for the PS3, and halted when I found out the T500RS doesnt support XBox either.... so.... what is a good wheel to have for Xbox then? lol

Fanatec?
 
The new 458 Italia wheel is not out yet.
The new Mad Catz wheel is not out yet.
The new CSR Fanatec wheel is not out yet.
The new CSR Elite Fanatec wheel is not out yet.
The new 360 Wireless Dildo wheel is not out yet.

You can pretty much only get the Fanatec GT2 wheel right now, or the existing Mad Catz (current one is garbage).

Your wheel choices won't be out until this fall.
