Unusual for MS hardware to be poor quality. Ive always found their peripherals to be fantastic in the past. Cant say Ive tried this though so interested to hear peoples exsperiences.

yep offical one..

Very flimsy, could have done with some extra weight in. The pedals slide all over the floor & the stearing is light.. pretty much unusable in arcade racing games

played mine a few times now, with the mains supply so the force feedback was running.

the steering i find to be pretty good, not realistically heavy but then its mounted to a desk so cant exactly have that but not too light, its better than most real arcades iv been on, can feel it pulling and moving against you plenty, and if you let go itll rip round to where it wants no problems

got my pedals on carpet so no movement there and my heels are on the bar at the front so not going to move anyway, the brake could do with a stronger spring tho, its to light the gas isnt as bad as it would be lighter IRL anyway

the design and product feels solid, the pedals could have been heavier but iv not had an issue and as the wheel is designed for lap use as well id not want any more weight in it
