I really like this wheel, though I wish I didn't have to buy it. I already have a Logitech g27 with the shifter that cost quite a bit less than this wheel without the shifter. I realize this isn't a review about the price though, so I'll move on and talk about the wheel. First, the setup for the wheel really could not have been easier on my Xbox One or my PC. I hooked it up to my Xbox first. I plugged it in and it worked. I didn't have to do anything else for the xbox to recognize it. I launched Forza 6, set the steering option to "Simulation" and I was good to go! I ended up tweaking the deadzones in forza a bit more to my liking, but that was just software settings, and small ones at that. For my PC, I downloaded and installed the latest Logitech gaming software before I plugged the USB cable into the PC. Once it was installed, I plugged in the USB cable, the wheel spun around a bit and it was ready to go. I launched Assetto Cora and to my surprise, found a premade config for the Logitech g920 with and without the shifter. I selected the one without the shifter, went into the controller setup wizard, and all controls responded perfectly. I don't know if I had to go into the controller setup wizard, but I did just in case. After that, I launched a race (in manual shifting mode) and ran a few laps around Mugello just to see how it was. There were no issues at all. Everything worked just as you would expect. For anyone that has ever owned a Logitech g27, you will instantly be familiar with this wheel. It feels very much the same, but with the extra buttons for the xbox control. The wheel is the same size, though it now has a flat bottom The leather feels great, just like it did on the g27. Even the wheel base is identical to the g27. This is a good thing because that was rock solid on everything I clamped it to. A noticeable difference from the g27 is that the wheel no longer has the LED shift indicator lights. I understand that xbox games may not support this, but it would be nice to still be able to use them for PC games. The wheel itself is very quiet. I can't imagine anyone having any complaints about the noise from this. One minor thing I don't like about the wheel is the LED light just above the xbox button. It's REALLY bright. I ended up putting some black electrical tape over it and you can still see the light through the tape! The pedals look exactly the same as the g27 but with black pistons instead of red. One thing about he pedals though, as you can see in almost every review out there, is that the brake pedal is amazingly stiff. So stiff that I had to put the back of my chair up against my couch to keep from pushing myself backwards just to get the car to slow down at all. I've never driven an F1 race car, but I have never had to press any brake pedal as hard as this one to get 100% travel. It was ridiculously stiff. This is all because of a small piece of rubber that is inserted into the break pedal spring to give it "progressive" pressure. In reality, it ended up being almost no pressure to start with, then a massive amount of pressure from about 20% all the way to 100%. It was not gradual at all. You could clearly tell when the pedal hit the rubber. Real break pedals don't work like that. After 2 hours of racing, my foot hurt and all I could think about during the race is preparing myself to brake HARD on the next corner. It is a simple fix though (see my photos). *Doing this will void your warranty.* It took me about 20 minutes to take the base apart, take the piece of rubber out of the spring, and put it all back together. This made an amazing difference. All three pedals now feel exactly like the pedals on the g27. The brake pedal is still more stiff than the accelerator or clutch, but not so stiff that it's almost useless. After a few laps, I had stopped thinking about braking and just started thinking about racing again. To the credit of the pedal base though, it stuck to my carpet like crazy. I easily pushed my chair backwards but the base never slid a bit. It stuck to my carpet like crazy. This could have been a 5 star rating if I didn't have to mod it to get the brake pedal to work normally and if it had the shifter included. You can use the g27 shifter with this wheel, but I plan on selling my g27 and I can't really sell it without the shifter.
