This review is from: PS3 Wireless Racing Controller (Accessory)

I made a mistake in assuming that this wheel would basically replace the standard PS3 controller L stick functionality. In order to utilize the "6 dimension, multi axis motion sensing" advertised for this racing controller, the game you are playing must support the PS3 six-axis technology. This is not mentioned anywhere on the product packaging nor instructions. Of the racing games I tried (Gran Turismo 5, Grid, Dirt, Motorstorm) only Motorstorm supports six-axis. For the other racing games you are stuck using the D-pad at the left top of the wheel to steer the vehicle! So, basically this is a standard PS3 controller without the analog sticks! Very disappointing!

I was informed by INTEC that due to the lastest firmware from Sony, this wheel is no longer functional or supported. Enough said.

Wow, this thing really works! I enjoy Motor Storm, but I don't like racing with the conventional game pad. I also like sprawling in my Lazy Boy recliner when playing PS3 games. That means no mounted racing wheels. Not only is it a great wheel, but when racing motorcycles, you can hold it flat and tilt left and right, just like you would in the real thing. I must admit, since there weren't any reviews on this thing, buying it was a shot in the dark. Not to worry. It does what it says it'll do, and at a very reasonable price. Well done!
