Wheel for realistic car gaming.. MS Sidewinder vs. Logitech Momo Force..

[x3m]

Hi!

I'm intend to buy a new wheel because my old one lacks of FF. But I have a hard time to choose one, atm I have found these two; Logitech Momo Racing and Microsoft Sidewinder FF. The MS is cheaper, but the Logitech has gearshift and seems to bee the better one over all, but I don't know..

So I'm looking here if someone could give a good answer, that would make me happy

Thanks !

Two articles from THG here and here indicate that both Momo models are better than the M$ one.

Momo Force has better feel...

Between the two, the Momo wheel and pedals are better. Another wheel you may want to check out is the Act LabsRS. It uses a cogged drive belt on the force feedback so you do not get that notchy feel from the drive gears the other two wheels use. You can also add a gate shifter and a pro model pedals, that add a clutch pedal. Anyways, it would be worth checking out .

If you just want to check out a FF wheel. Overstock.com has the Logitech WingMan Formula Force GP steering wheel for $28.99 plus $1.00 shipping until Friday. The wheel is a factory recondition and look new. It also comes with the game "Sports Car GT". This may get you buy and you can see what FF is like. For just under $30.00 you can get a FF wheel, good pedals, and a game shipped to you.

Thanks for all replys !

I will check that Act Lab wheel out, though, it looks very nice indeed, but maybe a little bit to expensive. And I thought my bad english would expose that I'm not a American citizen, so I can't take advantage of that very impressive offer at overstock.com.. :/
I think I will choose the Momo Racing, $135 shipped (inc VAT) is a pretty OK price for a good wheel.

boyRacer: Unfortunately that wheel is not available here, I am looking like a crazy but I can't find it. Probably importing it from US is the only possible solution

Not a problem - your English/sentence structure is better than most North American citizens! :beer:
