The Daisy Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 $150 bucks? Good lord. Glen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iainl Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 Sounds fair to me, particularly with a bundled PGR3 which I would otherwise be buying anyway. What it translates into in UK price terms is another question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Covak Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 That PGR3 disc will make for a shiny coaster while I'm playing Forza 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robot Monkey Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 That's how real race car drivers drive. One foot on the gas and one on the brake.

The Daisy Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 PGR is only bundled with the wheel "while supplies last" paying $150 for a FF wireless wheel without a game after a few months will be a tough pill to swallow, me thinks.

MrJames Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 There were some posted back during E3. IGN is blocked at work so I don't know if the images still work. http://www.lcvg.com/forum/showpost.php?p=168285&postcount=14 Check the video that Odie posted... http://www.lcvg.com/forum/showpost.php?p=188203&postcount=362 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boogieman Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 So my copy of PGR3 that I bought at launch is not FF? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogbert Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 Apparently not. Wonder if they'll patch it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan B. Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 They've promised to patch PGR 3 for force feedback, yes. However, they also promised that the wheel would be less than $100... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon W H Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 The wheel is too expensive, but I think Major Nelson did say it would be 'a bit more than expected ($100)' last month after he talked to the XBox accessories department head. The camera, plus Uno is interesting to me at that price. The more videos they show of player modeling, the higher my curiosity gets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrJames Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 There will be a cheaper option with the Logitech wheel at $100. I doubt anyone would really want anything that costs less since it would probably be a POS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldorado Posted August 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 But the logitech has already been confirmed not to have FF. An option most people aren't willing to trade at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan B. Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 I would've preferred to see the wheel + Forza 2 for that price. Chespace at Microsoft Game Studios has hinted that there is good news coming about 3rd party wheels. Hopefully, that means that they will support 3rd party FF wheels, but the question is...when?

General Zot Posted August 24, 2006 Report Share Posted August 24, 2006 Man, I hope we can get some 3rd party wireless headsets that look better and sell for a bit less. C'mon Logitech, get on it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdForged Posted August 24, 2006 Report Share Posted August 24, 2006 I will not be accessorizing at these price points. I'd love a FF wheel but I love money too much. Nor do I need a camera unless there's a compelling reason beyond being seen over Xbox Live. I have no desire to be seen, I'm an ugly man. And the "totem" pack in looks like nothing so much as a tech demo, so that ain't going to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
