      Ive used one a few years back. Finally got one and to tell you the truth I didn't use it as much as I thought i would. I do love it though. I found a nice stand for it and started to race with friends which makes for a better experience. If you are into racing I think you will like it. Im trying to practice and get better as there is a learning curve to do depending on the game.

          +1

          Nope, G23 is the new one with extra force or something. Not worth it in my oppinion

  • TazBargainer on 04/10/2021 - 10:47
    +1

    I'm still tossing up between the G920 or the G923. Huge price difference with Trueforce (lack of support with games) and better pedal control being the only differences.

    • DGrayson82 on 04/10/2021 - 10:54
      +9

      Trueforce is a gimmick, I wouldnt bother with it

      • TazBargainer on 04/10/2021 - 10:58

        Well the lack of games, especially on Xbox One that support Trueforce it's a put off. I was hoping there would be future support with Forza etc but it doesnt look likely.

    • GreyChris on 04/10/2021 - 20:59

      Mostly the same but the brake for the 920 is rubbish. A piece of rubber prevents you braking to 100%. Not all racing games allow you to adjust for braking deadzones, brake saturation or both. Is it Xbox you'd be using it for? What games were you wanting to play? If you use this on PC you can often adjust these settings but games such as assetto Corsa don't allow you to do this, F1 series often let you adjust this. Happy to help, used the g920 for years and it was my entry into Simracing which I love doing.

      I think you need to buy the Xbox version to be able to use with a PC.

        G29 works with PC too. The difference is console specific

      • JDMcarfan on 04/10/2021 - 12:18
        +4

        Either version works fine with PC, it’s just not listed for some reason. Bought a G29 from the deal @$250 and happy with my choice.

        G29 comes with a range of extra buttons + scroll so can be useful depending on application (which is why I went for it) plus is more sought after on gumtree if you’re thinking about resale

        • philmccracken on 04/10/2021 - 12:40

          Yeah I bought a G29 a couple years ago exclusively for use with a PC because it had the extra buttons

          • Caped Baldy on 04/10/2021 - 13:40

            @philmccracken: How's the compatibility?

            I've had good past experience with xbox on pc being pretty seamless and it seemed a bit annoying to connect sony controllers.

      you can just mount it on your table if you are playing on PC, if you are playing on a console then its worth investing in a small desk or a Sim Stand. Range for about $100-$200 for a decent one.

    Great entry level wheel for those who wants to get a taste of sim-cade/driving. I've sunk about 180 hours using these bad boys on Assetto Corsa PC (90% Drifting and 10% Hill climb time attack). I wouldn't recommend this wheel for drifting due to the wheel not spinning fast enough, but it's completely doable. I learned how to drift using this wheel and have no problem doing tandem drifting with others online.

    To increase pedal longevity, open up your pedals and put bluetac over the holes of the potentiometers that is open to dust.

      Its an investment if you are into Sim racing. You really have to make use of it,otherwise, it will collect dust. Know that though, if you take care of it. You might be able to sell it for the same price you bought it. They are sort after.

        you also need to invest in a driving seat contraption to keep everything stable and it needs to look good in your living room. Lot's and lot's of money for an enjoyable setup.

    • Erkel on 04/10/2021 - 14:26

      No gimmick, but only get it if you play a lot of driving/racing games. I still use mine for Forza Horizon, Euro Truck Simulator and DiRT these days.

      If you only play these types of games occasionally, then it's not worth sacrificing the space.

        +1

        The best one I have found so far is GRID. I wasn't a fan of Forza with the wheel and F1 is paddle shifting. But GRID allows you to do so much calibration of the wheel and the brake pedal which I can't seem to find in other games. The brake pedal is too firm for my liking and to get 100% braking without calibration is almost impossible without really pushing it and pushing my chair back.

        There is a rubber grommet on the brake pedal and a lot of people remove it or change it out. No adjustment on the pedal itself.

  • MrDignified on 04/10/2021 - 15:06

        Because people are buying them cheap and trying to flip them. Also They have been out of stock for some time and if they are in stock they are at RRP which is crazy. Before Covid I remember them regularly on sale for $250. They couldnt get rid of them if they wanted to.

    Where does this rank in the wheel hierarchy? Better sets out there for under $1k?

    • GreyChris on 04/10/2021 - 21:10
      +5

      This is the old faithful reliable go-to starter wheel.
      The best set is the one that you use. There's no point buying anything more crazy unless you know you'll use it. Sets of these peripherals come up for sale where people have spent 5-10k and they don't even use them. It also includes pedals and the wheel for this price.

      If you want the next level for around 1k it could be a second hand csl elite with clubsport pedals for around 600 but better would probably be a CSL DD for 600 + a fanatec rally or f1 wheel (300-500) and clubsport 3 pedals for around 1.5k total. it's a step up Logitech to Thrustmaster/fanatec entry but the direct drives aren't that much more. Much more bang for your buck and would have a warranty.

      Ironically the reliability of the logitechs is also a lot better, it can just leave something to be desired if you do Sim racing regularly and need more.

      I had the g920 for years and recommend it as a start. If you don't use it, sell it 2 years later for the same price!
