PS2 Steering Wheel

Which is the best? Will any USB Wheel work or does it have to be specific to PS2. For that matter will any USB device work on a PS2? mouse, controller....??

Edited because I can't spell

Ok id hazard a guess that it has to be sepcificficly PS2 but then again i cood be wrong

I wondered about this myself actually, would it not be down to drivers loaded into the game? I can't see the PS2 having drivers built in for anything more than the USB hub itself as that would limit future peripherals.

Can I get this moved to the Tech boards please?

Evenworse is that the only wheel that will definately work with GT3 is the logitech one that comes with the game for £135 and hasn't been released seperately yet. With the rest you'd be chancing your arm.

It's a 106 miles to Chicago. We've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses.

HIT IT!

£135 for the Logitech wheel?

Bloody hell I've seen them going for £155
in the Virgin Megastore in Cork!

Will that Logitech wheel work on a PC?

No £135 for the wheel and GT3. And no sickboy, the wheel won't work on a pc. afaik it has to use a controller port

Thanks for the info. I'm just looking to get a wheel soon and it would be sweet if it would work on both platforms seeing as PC and PS2 both have USB. Guess it was a long shot.

IMO steering wheels are a big waste of money i find playing GT more enjoyable and playable with a normal joypad

Just try playing Grand Prix legends without a steering wheel and say they are useless ... although some games don't eem to play very well with them.
