Logitech G25 steeringwheel.

Logitech G25


The Logitech G25 steering wheel is one of the more expensive alternatives for a steering wheel, when I first considered buying this thing I thought that well, sounds good, but is it really worth paying 150 pounds for? In my opinion, yes, it definitely is.

The wheel:


The wheel is made out of more aluminium and metal than plastic, the wheel itself is aluminium, coated with real leather! I thought well, real leather? Isn’t it like too much? But I must admit that when I got that wheel, I wouldn’t trade it for a wheel costing 100 pounds without the leather finish, especially in situations where you play in a longer period of time, it’s very useful. The wheel got aluminium gear pedals at the back, witch is useful for driving formula 1 cars. It also gives you a very good grip, and it smells bad. Another thing is the amazing force feedback, from 2 electric engines inside the wheel. The force- feedback is making the wheel react like it would in a normal car, witch brings a lot of realism and in some cases pain to your driving. Most wheels has a 200 degree rotation, The G25 got 900. Most games are optimized for 900 degrees, but in some games, it’s just not working right.

The shifter:

The shifter is

a 6-speed H pattern shifter, witch really makes the G25 stand out from the cheaper models, you can shift between H pattern, and normal sequential shifting. A bad thing about the shifter would be the fact that it’s really fragile, if you’re too hard on it

will by time break. In my case, I have never had a problem with it, if you just remember to be careful, nothing will happen. Don’t blame the shifter if it breaks, it’s not the shifters fault that you like pie. It also has multiple buttons that you can bind commands to.

The pedals:

The pedals are truly amazing! Made out of metal and with different levels of resistance they are the best pedals I’ve ever tried. The speeder has almost no resistance, the brake is quite hard to push down, while the clutch is in between (feels just like a real c

ar). Another great thing is the control you have, the slightest increase or decreasement on the throttle, clutch or brake has an effect. To make it stay in place there’s normal rubber for normal floor, and carpet pins for, ye well, your dog.

Conclusion: This is a very great wheel, if you’re in to racing, this is something for you! If I was going to rate this, it would definitely be a 9/10, if the price was a little lower, it would have been 10/10
