In the box is not much further here. Steering wheel, pedals, connection cable, power adapter and a quick guide.
The cable of the power supply and the USB connection are over 2 meters long, so that you are there for the most
Aufstellsituationen has enough room. It is more difficult with the retaining claws on the steering wheel.
By default, you have 2-3cm, if you release the removable blocks on the claw away 5cm screw path.
That's enough for simple tabletops, but including closely when are dense metal support.
In the latter case may be a stopgap measure an infinitely adjustable in height board.

Since I previously had the legendary Momo leather steering wheel, I feared worst, but was pleasantly surprised.
Of course, it can not keep up with Momo, but although everything is made of plastic, the steering wheel does not look cheap,
has in some cases even a hint value. It is good, good grip, the pedals slip on carpet
and not by the full controller kit can also operate the PS3 menu to start racing games.
Only the retaining clips and the shift lever not act as if they would persevere 5 years in the racing battles
and I personally would want me at the pedals a bit more drag.

The steering wheel I have a 5 used by another hour with Gran Turismo on Playstation 3 said.
The most dangerous moments are switched on and off. Here it is hands off, because the steering wheel makes independently
the full 2.5 turns for self-testing - there is truly better opportunities to test the power of engines.
Even in the driving tests in the beginning you realize that control the vehicles much more precisely with a steering wheel
leave as the DualShock. Especially when cornering combinations and when overtaking one learns finer steering maneuvers
appreciate and the decoupling of gas / brake from the main controller.
The Force effects are intense and the motors hold surprisingly strong at counter steering / drifting against.
The driving experience is much better than using the standard controller, if there is a well of real driving still
Piece is removed. Because of course missing the accompanying G-forces, but also the force effects are in clinical
Approach rarely a good simulation also.
The game does this not detract from the contrary.
With the Drive Force GT makes Gran Turismo 5 on PlayStation 3 for an entire bit more fun and
in the hustle and bustle of the race fall small FF imperfections anyway not.
Conclusion ============================================================================================================
It is not cheap in price, not in the quality.
It does not come close to the more than twice as expensive precious handlebars and over the durability I can not say anything,
but it has a convincing overall concept and prepare while driving a lot of fun.
Perfect for people who like racing fun, but not excessive players.
PS. It has the same PS2 / PS3 compatibility as the G27.
On the PS4 (V1.51), the steering wheel will not be recognized. Although I have no PS4 Racing to test,
but already the system Buttons do not respond and it dives devices not on the Systemenü.
