Sadly they are not at the moment...

Microsoft really got to do something about that...

I emailed Microsoft about this a while back. What they said is right now Fanatec is the only company that has a permission to build a true wheel for xBox. The older "wheel" set up like the Logitech Driving Force and Drive FX (which is what I am currently using) is basicly a controller modified to look like a wheel. I also asked them if they plan on doing anything so the Logitech G25/27 can work on xBox. They said not in the foreseeable future.

The thing is I already have a G25 that is useable on PC/PS3. So I pre-ordered a GT2 Clubsport Edition with a tunning kit and black inserts for the pedals. I also got a G25/27 adapter so I can used my G25 shifter. It cost a lot but it is compatable with 360/PS3/PC. I got an email two days ago saying the next batch has shipped out to their distributor in the US and they will start shipping them out the first or second week of June.

So did I, I just didn't realise you wanted one... ;)

If I had a spare £300 I'd buy the fanatec wheel + pedals right now, but I don't, so i won't.

That's expensive for just a controller in effect. My madcatz one is fine as it is, and, from what I can see, makes me no slower to everyone else...

Wheel, pedals and shifter comes to about £400 but i'm still considering it, probably wait until FM4 and start fresh with the wheel on that!!!

Your steering wheel makes everyone believe you're playing Forza whilst on a boat....
