Im gonna have to goto the local "used game store" not EB its called 'Cool Stuff', and they were selling Kinects for like $60, so I might get one for headtracking and whatnot.

im actually about to tear my wheel apart again, the wire harness clamp is coming loose again, as the last race i just did my downshift paddle stopped working. (the price of modding the eff out of this thing is the maintenance hours)

That thing looks like it might be fun as a yoke for a flight game, if it did multiple axes, but racing? I just don't get it. Seems like it would be a miserable experience, and rule out long races.

I have no idea what anyone was thinking with that wheel.

I'm about to try the head tracking though, hopefully it works.

The guy at EBGames tried to sell me one of those wheels when I picked up my copy of Forza 4. It was all I could do to not laugh in his face. biggrin

Having said that, I would TRY the thing, but not for $60 or whatever they want for it.

I always seem to end up going back to the standard gamepad, except for something like iRacing.
