Anyone have a Logitech G25?

[Q]

I 'discovered' it yesterday, and man oh man do I want one. I've recently (past year) gotten into racing games/cars, and the H gearbox really makes me want one. But it's so much money 🙁

Question: is the shifter literally like it is on a real car? I want to play on this wheel, plus I've always wanted to learn to drive stick so just wondering if that could help me out at all 😀

I have it.

there's no resistance like a real shifter. It is after all a "toy"

no it won't help you learn to drive stick. If you enable it on gt5p, the only thing happening is that if you don't step on the clutch and try shift the car won't change gears. There's no need to "balance", you won't stall or anything.

Well I mean when you shift, do you just go up and down or do you have to move it at least in the 'correct' positions like in a car? (once again I don't know anything about manual driving, so that's what I assume is done)

Yeah you actually have to put it into the correct gate if you want 1st gear, 2nd, etc.

I got the budget driving force gt. The force feedback is awesome.
